This article describes how to recover deleted items in Microsoft Outlook 98
and how to force a purge of your deleted items.
MORE INFORMATION
Outlook provides the ability to recover previously deleted items. This
feature is only available if your e-mail delivery point is set to your
mailbox on the Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.5. Deleted items are
stored on the server until they are purged by the user, the system
administrator, or by a limit set by the system administrator.
To Recover Deleted Items
- On the Folder list, click to select the Deleted Items folder.
- On the Tools menu, click Recover Deleted Items.
- Click the item you wish to recover. If you want to recover multiple
items, hold the Shift key down and click to select contiguous items or
hold the CTRL key down and click to select noncontiguous items. If
you want to recover the entire list, click Select All.
- Click the Recover Selected Items button. The items will be returned to
your Deleted Items folder, and then you can move them to other
folders.
To Purge Deleted Items
- On the Folder list, click to select the Deleted Items folder.
- On the Tools menu, click Recover Deleted Items.
- On the Tools menu, click the item you wish to purge. If you want to
purge multiple items, hold the Shift key down and click to select
contiguous items or hold the CTRL key down and click to select
noncontiguous items. If you want to purge the entire list, click
Select All.

Deleted Items window.
The items are now permanently removed from the server and will not be
recoverable.
