It could depend on exactly how the mail managed to disappear, but in
general it's pretty unlikely.  Especially in a busy mail directory.

Recovering deleted mail from a mailbox

2003-02-04 Thread Willie Viljoen
This is a shot in the dark, but I'll try it anyway. Mail has been 
(mysteriously) deleted from a mailbox in /var/mail. rm -W does not help. 
Does anyone know of any method (third party software included) that can be 
used to attempt to recover the mail from the file system?
