Data that is deleted goes into the deleted items folder in Outlook.
If you want to find the data that has been deleted using Data&More's compliance solution, you need to go into "Deleted Items", where you have the option to restore the deleted data. The length of time that you can restore data depends on your organization's setup, but typically it is 30 days.
When you click the text marked in red, you can restore the deleted emails.
