Your Trash Can contains both objects that you have recently deleted and those that have recently expired in the containers you created. You can't open objects in the Trash Can, but you can undelete them. FirstClass physically removes objects from your Trash Can after a waiting period that is set by your administrator. Undeleting objects You can undelete an object from either the Trash Can or the object's original location.

To do this: 1 Open the container where the deleted object was located. 2 Click Show Deleted. All deleted objects that have not yet been removed are displayed, with Delete icons beside them. 3 Click the Delete icon beside the object you want to delete. You can also select the object, then click Undelete on the toolbar. When you have finished undeleting objects, you can hide the objects that are still marked for deletion by clicking Hide Deleted. Top
