Email in Hard Drive?

[Hero]

Is it possible to find an email that you already deleted say yesterday?

Cause I thought that it wasa possible to find it in your hard drive or something...is this possible? Can I get back the email?

Well, it's possible if you use view the mail using a web-based system.
For example, you can set up Outlook Express to download a copy of messages to your inbox. Just because it downloads them doesn't mean they aren't still on the server.

Try logging into your account through your ISP's website and if your settings are right, then the mail should be there. For example, if you have something @msn.com, you could log into Hotmail to view your messages.

If not, then I don't know what to tell ya'.

Didn't it get sent to your Trash folder?

I believe he emptied it out... Or else that would make for a silly error

Um... I haven't dabbled with Hardrive recovery software in FOREVER... so I'm not really familiar with it anymore... but once you delete something it only gets deleted from hardrive root, but it's actually still there on your free space on the hardrive... Someone will definetly need to double check what I just said because I'm a bit rusty with this type of software...
