Hi Experts

One of my Office365 users has deleted sent emails from his mailbox and the user is not able to find those emails in Recover Deleted Items in outlook. how can i restore those sent items only, i.e i want to export to PST file.

1. Place Mailbox on Hold immediately (if not already) - Set-mailbox useremailaddress -litigationholdenabled $true ( so that MRM Stops processing on the mailbox till you can confirm that you have been able to recover the data)

2.  https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office365/enterprise/recover-deleted-items-in-a-mailbox Run content search for this Mailbox, Start PST Export for Un-indexed items ( Non-ipm ) subtree (where deleted emails reside in Recoverable items folder)

3. Once PST is export, bind it with Outlook profile and then expand different folder to retrieve your emails.

4. Manually move the emails from PST to actual mailbox (still configured in outlook & connected to Exchange).

5. Wait for 5-10 minutes then access OWa to verify the restored emails show up there.

6. Once confirmed, unbind the PST from Outlook

 

You should be all set.
