Hi demmittb,

• Which email program are you using?

• Did you check the deleted items folder in your email program?

If you are using Windows mail, then you may try the following steps to recover the emails:

  1. Click on the "Deleted Items" folder in the Windows Mail navigation pane. The "Deleted Items" folder is listed under "Local Folders."

Locate the deleted message to recover in the main window of the "Deleted Items" folder.

3. Select the message to recover and click "Edit" in the menu bar. Click "Undelete" to recover the message. The message will be moved back to the Inbox.

Hope this information is useful.
