How to retrieve erased email?

Even if you've emptied your "Trash" folder. The e-mail isn't really deleted. But your computer system has no way to figure out where the file is, truth is it's still on your hard drive. You could use special email recovery tools to recover deleted e-mails. I found this one useful:

These programs identify missing files. But you have to act quickly. Your hard drive is overwriting files from time to time to make way to new information. If your hard drive is full there is not much space or memory available. But take note, if you haven't opened the e-mail yet and it was deleted due to file corruption, you have lesser chance to recover and restore the e-mail entirely.

If you are a GMAIL user  find deleted emails by clicking the "search emails" link at the top of the page, then just below the list of current emails is a statement in smaller font stating if you want to search deleted emails "view here".  Click "view here" and pop up all deleted emails
