If it's evidence in a trial, you *really* want to take the computer to a good forensic security expert, and have *them* do the retrieval. Doing this on your own is just *asking* for lots of little procedural slip-ups that an opposing expert witness can tear to shreds. For instance, you *could* go and run "undelete" - but do you know how it works well enough so you could explain it to a jury, especially if asked "Can you prove that this is *really* the e-mail in question, and not part of some other deleted e-mail, and accurately reflects the data? In other words, that you haven't altered it after undeleting it?
(This last point is a *biggie* - if nothing else, having a 3rd party expert do it removes almost all claims that the data was altered to benefit your side of the trial...

Deleted messages bypass to Trash. in case you delete a message by mistake, for slightly on the comparable time you would be waiting to be geared up to discover it in Trash and circulate it decrease back on your Inbox or to a minimum of one greater folder. merely take into consideration that messages in Trash is additionally deleted at any time without warning. After messages are emptied from Trash, they are completely deleted from the Yahoo! Mail server and could't be RECOVERED..

DO NOT STORE ANYTHING ON THE AFFECTED COMPUTER!!!!!! Go to another computer and download anything called unerase. Save it to a CD, and run unerase on the affected 'puter.
The email isn't delete. It's still on the HD. It was just erased out of the FAT. The unerase program looks at anything on the HD that doesn't appear in the FAT. It will display a list of those files, and ask you if you want to restore, or unerase.
Good luck.

More that likely, you will need a subpoena to the ISP providing the email service to retrieve it from their archives.

If it is permanently deleted, you will have to get a subpoena from a judge to get it from the provider. Only they can retrieve it then.

check your trash folder, and if it's not there, then try calling your e-mail service provider. I had to do that once, and they were able to restore the e-mail to my inbox.
