Usually, when you delete an email in an email program, it's moved to the deleted item folder, which allows you to get it back when you have a need, but if you emptied the deleted item folder, you can't recover a deleted email that way again. You need a data recovery tool which enables you to recover deleted email from Outlook, Outlook Express, Apple Mail, Mozilla EML, AOL Web Email, etc.
1 How to Recover Deleted Email
A deleted email is not really erased forever. It's only marked as deleted and the email program won't display it. You can easily recover deleted email before it's overwrtitten.
