help!

I just installed windows live mail desktop today.
I have a free msn.com account setup. I accidentally downloaded all my
messages and I assumed they would stay on the server. I deleted them from WLM
desktop and emptied the trash, assuming they'd still be on the server but
that wasn't the case. I lost all my old e-mails. Is there anyway I can
recover these messages?

Re: help!

Not sure about the MSN side...
but on the PC side, you might try Recuva to find the deleted .eml files

RE: help!

Are you using hotmail? I believe that Windows live mail and outlook express
both delete http mail on the server when you delete it in the mail client.
