Appears Outlook Express has lost several dozen e-mails. What do I do?

I was having trouble today opening Outlook Express on my old resource-challenged system. When I was opening HWiNFO32 at the same time as Outlook Express, I got OE opened, but HWiNFO32 froze, so badly that I had to reboot with the power button.

(So now I know I can't do anything simultaneous with running HWiNFO32 on this system.:-o)

When I brought OE back up on the next session, dozens of e-mails are missing, apparently e-mails that were being loaded at the time HWiNFO32 got hung. How do I get them back?

A number of the e-mails that are there now have this instead of the e-mail text
