recover deleted email

[beagledogs]

I set up a 'rule' in Outlook that permanently deleted a
very important incoming message. Is there any way to
recover this?

The rule went something like this:
'when messages received by (so and so) permantely delete
it'

HELP!!

If your Inbox is on an Exchange server, then yes, if your Exchange Admin has
enabled this feature. Ask him or her. If your Inbox is in a Personal
Folders file, then no, you're screwed.

Not necessarily screwed... it's possible to recover deleted items if the pst
hasn't compacted.

I sure wouldn't want to pin my hopes on so iffy a method, but if it's
crucial to the company, it would be worth a shot.
