How to recover messages from Live mail?

sparkyb · 7 Apr 2016 at 07:06

Hi,

Please can you help me;

I am using Windows Live mail 2011 on Windows 7 and need to recover a few emails that I deleted from December 2015 / January 2016. Is it possible to recover the messages and if so how to do it please? Also by recovering will this effect my current messages / set up in live mail?

At the time I didn't realise the messages would be important, but they have become so now; a garage messed up my car with a bad service and these emails are additional proof to what they did and what my car was booked in for.

Thank you

IMAP?
Email provider?

Login www.outlook.com, go to Deleted Items and a bar appears at the top about recovering deleted emails.

Just did this for my dad last week, it got all of his emails from well over 12 months ago for him.

Hi, thank you. I didn't know you could do that, i have just done as you advised but it only brought back about a months worth. So it looks like earlier messages are lost foreever.
