How to Undelete Emails in Gmail
Email has largely replaced standard paper mail for informal correspondence and communications where efficiency is a priority. Gmail is an email service offered by Google that lets anyone create an email account for free. Gmail offers a variety of features such as mail archiving and searching, instant messaging, video messaging and making phone calls. "Delete" is one of the standard options for emails received on Gmail. Deleted items can be recovered or undeleted from the trash.

Tips & Warnings
Gmail gives users a large amount of storage space (7492 MB as of August 2010). Average users will be able to store all of their emails on Gmail without ever deleting an email permanently.
Emails in the trash that are selected and deleted using the "Delete Forever" button cannot be recovered.
Emails that remain in the trash for more than 30 days will be automatically deleted forever.
