Recovering Deleted email in Outlook

When you delete mail from your Outlook Inbox, it is moved to the Deleted Items folder. You can open this folder and look to see if the e-mail you wanted is there. If it is, select the e-mail and drag it back to your Inbox.

If the e-mail you want is not in the Deleted Items folder, pull down the Tools menu and select Recover Deleted Items menu option. A dialog box displays the items you have deleted in the last 7 days. Select the items you want to recover, than click on the Recover Selected Items button (2nd button on the Toolbar). The items you selected will be moved back to the Deleted Items folder. You can then move them to your Inbox.

Beyond these two methods, restoring deleted individual electronic mail messages or folders is not generally available due to the complexity of the restore process.
