    If you deleted them through the website (gmail.com), they're gone forever.

    If you were using an email client (ie Windows Mail, Outlook 2007/10/13/16, Thunderbird etc) there's a small chance of recovery but if you've been actively using the machine in the last 18 months, the chance diminishes greatly.
