Not a problem once you know ;-) It is not conventional compared with
other apps, but if you go to the main menu you will find <View><Hide
Deleted Messages>. Un-tick that option and all the messages you deleted
will again be visible in the folder that they first came to (ie, Inbox
or Inbox/work for example). Once you see the messages you want
displayed again (with a line through them) then right-click on it and
select <undelete> from the pop-up context menu. It's that easy :-)
Trash just mirrors these emails as a virtual folder, I believe, so no
need to ever look in trash once you do as described above.
