Can I find an email I deleted?

halloweenqueen_2

I thought I'd have a sort through my emails, got a bit carried away and deleted one I wanted to keep - even more helpfully I have emptied the deleted folder - is there any way of retrieving it as I deleted a voucher.
Thanks!

Some more info please!
What email application do you use?!?!

ckerrd

what are you using to read your emails?

The answer to your question may well be yes you can get it back

Edit - beat me to the obvious question Magyar

Sorry - outlook express from the 2003 office.

Is your "email provider" office based or a freebie/isp ?

can you get onto ( logon) the web mail server from where you get your email ? Do not send/rec mail until you try this.....

Sorry to be confusing but Outlook Express isn't part of Office, it's part of Windows.

As stated above: if it's OUTLOOK (which is part of Office) then do you get your email from your ISP or is it a Web Mail (e.g. Hotmail, Gmail etc)

And also as stated above - DON'T TOUCH YOUR EMAIL APP FOR NOW!

If you havent deleted it from your ISP's server,you might be able to download it again. Ive got Opera which I use for browsing and emails but if I then go into mozilla thunderbird,it will download all the emails on the server wether opera has downloaded them or not. I have thunderbird set to delete from server on download and Opera set ,not to.Just incase I delete from Opera by mistake.

I haven't got a freebie one, I've looked at the isp one directly but it deletes from there when i delete in outlook.

well it may still be in the trash folder of the isp mailbox - have you looked there ? See if your isp has help pages - I doubt they will restore your mail box ...

But if it was a downloadable voucher and you looked at the voucher it will/may be in your cache/temp files ..... do not clear any temp files

Have you looked in the trash can in the email program?
I dont use outlook but in opera it goes in the trash can and you can search it and choose undelete which restores it to where it was originally.

Just realised that when I sorted out some bits on my pc I had to load office again the other day and imported the old emails - I deleted them but I have imported again and its come back - so have all the others I deleted but at least its there! Thanks for all your help!
