MS Outlook and Toolbar Settings

Somehow I have managed to get rid of one of my toolbars, in which I was able to click on "This is Spam" to add spam to my banned list.

Anyone got any ideas how to get it back?

    Not sure if thats a standard outlook toolbar, but any way right in the free space of one of your toolbars at the top of your screen and then left click the tool bar you need

    Thanks for the response - I had tried that but the correct toolbard did not come up - there was definitely a part of the toolbar which could be pressed and which stated "this is spam" which then deleted the spam from that particular incoming box and at the same time added it to the list of banned spam.

    Also, my "Send and Receive" does not automatically commence when I open Outlook, which it did previously.

    Any ideas anyone?

    Might be worth a try and do a system restore, to an earlier date when you knew it was working

    Do a system restore as suggested its really simple, just roll back the PC to a point just before this button went missing.

    Start, Run, then type msconfig then click ok then click on Launch System Restore and follow the very simple instructions.

    Click Start - Help and Support. Under 'Pick a task', click Undo changes to your computer with System Restore.

    Help and Support is one of the useful features of XP which people should use in the first instance.
