Sometimes items get hard deleted and you need a way to recover them. This script will add a registry key to allow for message recovery for all folders in Outlook. Then you will be able to click on tools>"Recover Deleted Items" from any folder!

For More information on this please see: http://www.msexchange.org/tutorials/Recovering-Deleted-Items-Exchange-Server-2003-Part1.html
