Have you ever accidentally deleted a draft email in Gmail that you were working on for hours? It can be frustrating to lose all your hard work, but don't worry - there are ways to recover deleted draft emails in Gmail. In this article, we'll show you how to retrieve your deleted drafts and get back to work.

A - Attention

If you've just realized that you've deleted a draft email, stop what you're doing and pay attention. The more you use your Gmail account, the more chances there are for the draft email to be overwritten and lost forever. So, take a deep breath and follow these steps carefully.

I - Interest

The first thing you need to know is that Gmail automatically saves drafts as you type. So, if you accidentally closed the window or your computer crashed, you may be able to retrieve your draft from the "Drafts" folder. However, if you've deleted the draft intentionally or unintentionally, it won't be in the "Drafts" folder.

D - Desire

If you really want to recover the deleted draft email, the first step is to check the "Trash" folder. Gmail automatically moves deleted emails to the "Trash" folder, but they are only kept there for 30 days. So, if the email was deleted more than 30 days ago, it's gone forever.

A - Action

If the email was deleted less than 30 days ago, you can still retrieve it from the "Trash" folder. Here's how:

1. Open your Gmail account and click on the "Trash" folder on the left-hand side of the screen.
2. Find the deleted email and select it by clicking on the checkbox next to it.
3. Click on the "Move to" button at the top of the screen and select "Drafts" from the drop-down menu.
4. The email will now be moved back to the "Drafts" folder, where you can continue working on it.

Conclusion

Accidentally deleting a draft email in Gmail can be a nightmare, but with these steps, you can recover your lost work. Remember to pay attention, check the "Trash" folder, and act quickly to retrieve your deleted draft. And always remember to save your work frequently to avoid losing it in the future.
