if i delete an email (I'm a google apps/exchange user) from my iphone in my inbox using the bin icon then it seems to disappear forever and doesnt appear in the trash/googlemail bin or deleted message folders!
i have lost emails accidentally this way as they go for good!
any ideas on how to get them back?

for some reason when you delete in your inbox it doesn't move to trash it just deletes it from the inbox, whilst leaving a copy in all mail. So to actually delete an email you have to delete it twice before it gets put in trash..... that or just go to all mail an delete it there
The amount of times I've had that with Staff on exchange...
"Hello IT, I can't find an email I deleted in 2007 and I need it urgently for a report I have to write"
"Erm, OK...? You deleted it!!"
:mad:
