At the absolute insistence of our IT people, and with much reluctance, I
moved my emails over into an archive file. The only way this works for me is
to move everything (not just old emails) - i.e., I now have my email filing
structure set up in the archive folder and I move anything I need to keep
directly into archive. Otherwise, as I understood it, I was going to need to
keep duplicate file structures in my inbox and in the archive folder, meaning
I'd have to look in 2 (or more) places everytime I needed something.
So, this has been working fine, with a few minor (but annoying!) exceptions.
However, there is one big problem - when I delete something from an archive
folder, it's completely gone - it doesn't go into deleted items, or into my
recycle bin, or anywhere else that I can see. A few times I have accidentally
clicked delete instead of "move to" and I've completely lost the message.
There's no warning or error message, it's just gone.
Is there anything I can do to prevent this? I'd prefer not to have an error
message, as this would be really irritating when I really do want to delete
something. Best case scenario would be if the messages are going somewhere
that I can track them down. I have trouble believing that they just
completely delete with no warning?!?
Any suggestions most welcome!
