Here's the problem:

My boss was having trouble with Outlook so we temporarily switched to Thunderbird until the problem was fixed. Now that it's fixed, my co-worker decided to delete both my Boss' account AND the program. My boss REALLY needs those emails he sent through Thunderbird back because of a job "you never said that/I never got that email" dispute, but they're not on the email server (Verizon).

I read that his computer may possibly have those files still stored on the computer even after my co-worker uninstalled the program but I do know where to find them.

Thank you so much in advance.

PS - one more question: why doesn't Thunderbird sync ALL folders with the Verizon server so this doesn't happen and there's a copy of all emails sent through Thunderbird on the server?

The relationship between data in Thunderbird and data on the server is determined by whether the account is set up as a POP account (download inbox only) or an IMAP account (sync significant folders). But, too late to research/change that at this point.

Look up Recuva or similar software ASAP: the fewer touches to the hard drive have occurred, the better the chances of recovery.
