Let me readdress the fact that I'm an idiot. At least for now... What I mentioned below is not correct.
I have deleted items retention set on the server and I have the reg hack, but XP deosn't seem to think I have it setup. -----Original Message----- From: Don Ely [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, October 19, 2001 10:21 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Retrieval of deleted item from the recycle bin FYI for those of you running Outlook XP... Since I'm working on a migration from Sendmail to Exchange I have been testing the various functions that I have been selling to management and the likes. There is an extreme difference in the way XP Recovers Deleted Items. It used to be in O2K that with the reg hack, you selected the folder that the hard delete was issued from and chose Recover Deleted Items. In XP however, this is different. With the reg hack enabled you still must go to the Deleted Items Folder and then choose Recover Deleted Items. At that point all items hard or soft deleted from your mailbox will reside in there. Very strange I must say... Very strange I have to say. I dunno if MS planned this, but I can't say that I'm impressed.

Then you can recover deleted items from any and all folders.

(original post does not mention hard delete though). Just FYI for future reference. See: By default, the ability to recover deleted items is only enabled on the Deleted Items folder in a user's private folders, so items that are "hard deleted" cannot be recovered. http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q178/6/30.ASP Pat "Robin Lawrie" <Robin.Lawrie@FRM To: "MS-Exchange Admin Issues" Hedge.com> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc: 10/19/2001 08:57 Subject: RE: Retrieval of deleted item from the recycle bin AM Please respond to "MS-Exchange Admin Issues" Items that have been shift-deleted can also be recovered in this way. -----Original Message----- From: Cardoza, Patricia [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 19 October 2001 16:38 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Retrieval of deleted item from the recycle bin If you have deleted item retention set up on the server then he can go into his deleted items folder, and then go to Tools, Recover Deleted Items. That will bring up a list of all the items that have been deleted (but not shift deleted I believe) within your deleted item retention period.

[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, October 19, 2001 8:19 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Retrieval of deleted item from the recycle bin One of the users at our firm deleted an email and then immediately emptied their deleted items folder (and before you ask have no idea why they would do this). is there anyway to get this back. We are running exchange 5.5 with outlook 2k client. I don't know of anyway to get it back but he claims that it has happened before and he got them back. I know we can restore messages from backup but he deleted it the same day so would not be on the nightly back up.
