I sert my junk e-mail filter the wrong way and it deleted all the e-mails in
my inbox. I cannot seem to install the Restore Deleted E-mail button under
"Tools" even though I reset the Registry using regedit.exe. I restarted
Outlook as well as Windows to no avail.

What type of mail account do you have? Exchange? POP3? IMAP? Outlook
Connector?

"Permanently delete suspected junk e-mail instead of moving it to the Junk
E-mail folder"

Well, permanent means just that. There is no guarantee that *suspect*
e-mails are actually spam. The Bayes scheme relying on statistical
weighting of keywords is a guessing scheme.

So where do you save your backups?

Read Outlook's help. You'll notice it says Exchange is required since this
is a server-side function that operates on your mailbox up there.

You'll still either need to restore the .pst file from your backups or use
Exchange for its recovery function (if it was enabled by the mail admin).
