What folder was it? Your post is really confusing...

Try doing a search for the file in question and look at the details.
The sent items and deleted items in Documents and SEtings are just shortcuts to the "real thing" AFAIK.

Basically :
Copy the .dbx files to a "Backup Folder", Import Messages from the Backup Folder.

To import your Outlook Express e-mail messages from the Backup folder:
On the File menu, point to Import, and then click Messages.
In the Select an e-mail program to import from box, click Microsoft Outlook Express 5 or Microsoft Outlook Express 6, and then click Next.
Click Import mail from an OE5 store directory or Import mail from an OE6 store directory, and then click OK.
Click Browse, and then click on the Backup folder you made and plced your files in.
Click OK, and then click Next.
Click All folders, click Next, and then click Finish

This article describes how to back up and restore your messages, Address Book, mail accounts, and news accounts in Outlook Express 5 and later. If multiple Identities are in use for Outlook Express, these steps should be repeated for each Identity and the backup data segregated accordingly. This will facilitate restoration of each Identity.
