if they were deleted and not just moved to junk, your only hope of recovery
is if you use exchange server and the admin has enabled deleted items
recovery.

Why did you define a rule in Outlook to permanently delete suspect
mails if you want to keep them around for a short time in case of
false positives? In Outlook, change the rule for those
Mailwasher-tagged e-mails so they get moved into the Junk folder (and
perhaps marked as read) instead of getting permanently deleted. Then
configure auto-archive on the Junk folder to permanently delete
messages over, say, 5 days old.

If a rule in Mailwasher is deleting the mails before they ever get
delivered to Outlook then how is this an Outlook question? Outlook
never got those mails. You have a problem in how you decided to
configure Mailwasher. You are using Mailwasher as a pre-filter and
have configured it to delete mails from your server. Outlook never
ever gets those so they aren't anywhere in Outlook to be recovered.
