The "recover deleted items" only works on items that were in the "deleted items" folder. (Unless you have the reg key on) So you have to open the deleted items folder, then click on "recover deleted items" to get back items that were in the deleted items folder over the last 7 days.

I checked the Exchange Server and I have deleted items to be set to keep for seven days. I have read articles about a registry key for DumpsterAlwaysOn, but figured I did not need that on the Exchange Server since I have the option to keep deleted items for 7 days. I do not have the option selected for "Do Not Permanently delete mailboxes and items until we the store has been backed up." Any help would be appreicated with this.
