Do you need to recover an email that you've lost or perhaps have accidentally deleted? Wondering if it's gone forever? If you've done the unthinkable and deleted an email message that you needed, of course you're hoping it's sitting there in your deleted' folder. Maybe you're thinking it's sitting in archives or in draft. But what if it isn't? Not fun to be panic-stricken because you've lost some vital information, is it?
Deleted Email Recovery:
Depending on the type of email you're using, you may be able to recover that email message. You could talk to your MS Exchange administrator about the archiving policy or if you're using hosted email with a service such as Kerio Connect, you could have email with a deleted email recovery feature. There are also some programs out there that say that they'll help you get email messages back as well.
Email Management:
If it's too late and your email is gone forever, maybe you're re-thinking your strategy for email management for the future. Yes, it's not always prudent to keep every single email forever. It might not be practical and it might not be necessary. But perhaps you want a system in place in the future that allows you to recover messages for a short period of time after they are deleted or maybe you have a need for careful archiving of specific types of messages, either because you may need them later on or because there is a legal requirement for you to save such messages. Perhaps it's time to shop around for a better email solution with advanced email management options and an alternative to Microsoft Exchange or that free email service you've been using for years.
MS Exchange Alternatives Hosted Email
There are more options than Microsoft and many hosted email opportunities exist, enabling you to store emails off site so that you're not fighting with size restrictions. Cloud computing with hosted email could be an excellent solution to your email storage problems.
