Look in your 'deleted email' folder and drag and drop it back to your inbox.

You can run some data recovery software and train it to find just *.eml files. Im sure you can find some online, recovermyfiles comes to mind.

make sure you do a proper word search on your emails first. You may have just dragged it into the wrong folder.

I love the way people are guessing without even knowing what email program you are using.

What are you using? A program on your pc? Webmail (eg Hotmail, Gmail)?

I am using BT Yahoo for emails, I think it possibly could of been a few weeks ago it was deleted. I can't see deleted file, usually when emails are deleted it goes into the trash and I think it stays there for a day or so?

If you're using webmail and the email has been deleted from the trash folder, then it's gone for good.
