Retrieve deleted mail in Hotmail even after emptying your Deleted items folder
One more awesome reason to use Hotmail !!
Now even if you have emptied your Deleted items box, you can under special circumstances retrieve the deleted mail !!
I faced this problem, I deleted one of my very important email and also emptied the deleted items folder then after few days when i required that email, i come to know that it was deleted by me, now what to do ??
Then I made a request in the WindowsLiveHelp forum hoping for any help and as usual Microsoft buddies are always happy and ready to help Jordan C and Sharon S there from Live was really nice enough to help me to retrieve my deleted mail.
Great news. I wonder how far back deleted mail can be recovered, maybe Windows Live Hotmail should consider renaming the delete function to "archived" instead.
I have to agree with all the comments here, this really great news because I can't be the only one who has deleted an email and thought later that I needed to reference it. For idots like me I now can have a chance getting some back
@ nithin: did you let your e-mail client to leave your mail on server?
I hope so. 'cause I would be happy to know that other people or my ISP keep them without my consent.
I'm glad you could retrieve your lost mail anyway;-)

Hi Guys, I received an email from a fellow forum member stating that the links I have provided here are not working no more.. so, I did some research and came up with the new link. Microsoft has shifted the forum to a new place.
