Outlook Express Client to Server Recovery

I have kind of a problem with Outlook Express.  One of my clients was having problems downloading her email.  (outlook express v 6.0 by the way, windows 2000)  So I created her profile here on my outlook express to see if I could duplicate the errors she was getting, well I downloaded all of her mail successfully.  That part was great, only problem is she had been saving the messages on the server with the leave a copy on the server on the advanced tab.  I don't know how to get the messages I've downloaded back onto the server so she can get them from where she's from because i didn't check that box when I was setting up the profile. 
 
So my question is...How do I return messages to the POP3 server if I mistakenly didn't select the option for Leave a copy of messages on the server and downloaded all of the old and new mail to my local machine?  I don't know if I can and couldn't find anything on the web.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks,

    Mack61281,

    It may be tedious but you may have to simply forward all the messages you downloaded back to your client to get them back on the server.

    Really, I was hoping there would be another way.  There are about 360 messages and I'm not looking forward to forwarding them all.  Thanks though,

    I've got the server here too, I host the pop3 server.  Does that make a difference, I'm within walking distance of the pop 3 server (using mail enable by the way), can't I just do the same thing from my machine's client back to the mail server as I could from my outlook client to hers?
