Hello again,

Sent emails have disappeared from sent inbox. This issue has been for at least 3 weeks now.

I need all my sent emails that disappeared back in sent folder as soon as possible.

Please I have tried everything and checked all folders in email no where to find these emails.

I do believe it is a glitch and a bug in the Microsoft Outlook system. Can someone from Microsoft please look into this and contact me as soon as possible.

I have posted many times and no one has contacted from Microsoft I tried calling and a recorded voice automated machine says help is gone online. This has become a big joke!! I need HELP!!

I type hotmail in google and click login on Outlook and I sign in, I have had no issues in the past just recently noticed emails disappeared.

I need my emails as soon as possible.

Please help!!!

    Hi Dianne, I've had my problem solved. I had lost most of my folders from the left hand side of my screen under 'favourites' - so I couldn't access my 'sent', 'deleted' or 'junk' folders. After speaking to a Microsoft man all I had to do was to click onto my email address listed under 'favourites' and up came all my folders. I then had to 'add to favourites' and there they were - with all their contents in tact. Hopefully it will work for you.

    I have the exact same problem as of today - all my sent messages, except for the last few days, have disappeared.

    Hello Fatimah H!

    I understand how important it is to have access to your sent emails. If you still can't find the missing emails, it's possible that they were permanently deleted due to a retention policy or a sync issue.

    In the meantime, you can use the search bar in Outlook to search for the missing emails by typing in the recipient's name or subject line.

    Sincerely,


    ReynaldoB
