I have seen system folders deleted before (in 5.5) when using non-outlook
clients. I'm puzzled why recover deleted items isn't working - the
dumpsteralwayson registry setting makes the recover deleted items option
available from folders other then the Deleted Items -it doesn't (afaik) make
any difference to whether the items are available for recovery or not, so
this would be worth a try. Otherwise RSG is the way to go - no need for
downtime.

I don't see how. The delete option isn't available for default folders.

I just presumed the user deleted all items _within_ the Sent Items folder.
However presuming has got the better of me before :^)
