please help..please help me because i have lost all my important
emails
and i am so depressed...so sad

You didn't lose them. You chose to download them. All POP3 e-mail
accounts work this way. It's not an Outlook peculiarity. Your e-mails
are now in a local message store managed by Outlook.

I have a "Yahoo Small Business Account" with domain name and hosting,
and 3
email address from that account. i used to use NO EMAIL CLIENT LIKE
OUTLOOK
at all
and i used to save all my emails on yahoo servers and using yahoo
normal
email website to read, send and save all my emails...untill tonight!
tonight i set up outlook 2007 Email Client Software and i did set
up a POP server connection, then when everything was done, it asked me
to download my emails, and that outlook software started to
downloading all my emails from Yahoo server to my computer.....about
13000
important emails downloaded to my computer...and now, when i check my
emails in normal yahoo email website(in my own space), there is
nothing
there..everything has
been downloaded to my computer....i DO really need to UPLOAD all my
emails again from my computer back to yahoo servers....

The default configuration for POP3 access to yank the e-mail and then
delete it from the server. You can override that behavior by enabling
the option to leave messages on the server.

For now, you will need to forward all those e-mails to yourself so they
get back up to the mail server (but will be the forwarded copies of your
e-mails rather than the original copies; that is, your original e-mail
will be wrapped around by the new mail used to forward them back to your
mailbox).

If you need to preserve the original headers in the e-mails so you can
review them later, make sure to configure Outlook to forward as an
attachment rather than inline with the new e-mail. If you don't need to
have 13,000 mails sent back up to your mailbox and you can suffice in
having a single e-mail that holds them all then create a new e-mail and
add the 13,000 old ones as attachments to the new e-mail. Then you get
one e-mail to send that shows up on your mail server but then you have
to open an attachment to see each e-mail.
