Recover permanently deleted mails from gmail

The eternal quest to recover permanently deleted emails!

Unfortunately, Gmail's default behavior is to permanently delete emails when you empty the Trash folder. However, there are a few methods you can try to recover permanently deleted emails from Gmail:

Method 1: Use Gmail's "Undo Send" feature

If you've enabled the "Undo Send" feature in your Gmail settings, you might be able to recover your deleted emails. Here's how:

  1. Go to your Gmail settings (gear icon) > See all settings.
  2. Scroll down to the "General" tab.
  3. Look for the "Undo Send" option and toggle it on.
  4. Set the "Undo Send" window to a shorter time frame (e.g., 5 seconds).

Now, if you delete an email, you'll have a short window to undo the deletion. To do so:

  1. Go to the Trash folder.
  2. Find the deleted email.
  3. Click on the three vertical dots next to the email.
  4. Select "Undo" from the dropdown menu.

Method 2: Use Gmail's "Trash" folder

If you've emptied the Trash folder, but the emails are still in the "Trash" folder, you might be able to recover them. Here's how:

  1. Go to the Trash folder.
  2. Look for the deleted emails.
  3. Click on the checkbox next to each email you want to recover.
  4. Click on the "Move to" dropdown menu and select "Inbox" or another folder of your choice.

Method 3: Use a third-party email recovery tool

There are several third-party email recovery tools available that claim to recover permanently deleted emails from Gmail. Some popular options include:

  1. Email Recovery Tool (ERT)
  2. Gmail Recovery
  3. Recover My Emails

Please note that these tools may not always work, and there's a risk of data corruption or loss. Be cautious when using third-party tools, and make sure to read reviews and understand the terms of service before using them.

Method 4: Contact Gmail Support

If none of the above methods work, you can try contacting Gmail Support to see if they can help you recover your deleted emails. They may be able to recover your emails if they're still stored on their servers.
