Greetings,

I am using Microsoft Outlook 2000, and have acidently deleted some of
my important mails from my inbox, (not my pst folder), using Shift +
delete. As I work on a remote server, so we donot have "RUN" also to
use the usual steps of recovery of permanently deleted mails.


Can someone please help?Quick response will be appreciated.


TIA

Your Inbox is just a "folder" concept for hierarchical data storage in
your .pst file. The Inbox is indeed *in* the PST file. Unless you are
talking about the Inbox presented for your mailbox on the mail server
when you use your e-mail provider's webmail interface. In the latter
case, and if they support Shift+Del then the mail is gone permanently.
using Shift + delete.

That's the permanent delete. Same as if you delete items from the
Deleted Items folder. It's gone. That is why it called a PERMANENT
delete.

Items that are in the 'Deleted Items' folder really haven't been
deleted. They've just been moved under this folder. Permanently
deleted items will become hidden because, well, they've been permanently
deleted and are not to ever be displayed. However, in fact, they are
just marked with a "deleted" status which is what makes them hidden. If
you or Outlook hasn't yet performed a compaction on your PST file then
it is possible to extract the delete-marked items by using DBxtract or
DBxpress (Google for them).

Of course, if your data was actually important to you then you could
restore from your backups. Then you could just restore yesterday's .pst
file. If you don't backup your data then you deemed it unimportant.

Haven't a clue what you were trying to say here.

If your Inbox is on an Exchange Server, you may ask the mail admin to
retrieve your deleted messages.

A point not made is that N multiposted copies will consume N times the
space for separate copies of the same post. Crossposted messages have
just *one* copy on the server and the groups simply have pointers back
to that same single copy. Multiposting wastes disk space on the server.
Yes, your post is small but remember that you consume N times the space
on one server and then do so on all the newsgroups servers worldwide.

Crossposting helps readers in one group see the replies from those in
another RELATED newsgroup to which you copied your post. That way, they
don't waste their time duplicating similar replies that already exist.
