ePreserver Recovery for AOL
Recover deleted messages from your AOL personal filing cabinet.
This product has been discontinued and is no longer available.

Don't Panic! If you use AOL 8 or 9.x, ePreserver Recovery can get back your email, whether you need a single deleted message or an entire corrupted filing cabinet. Uses the same professional technology we sell to law enforcement. Recovered items can be placed in Outlook or HTML files and will appear in a folder named "DELETED."
ePreserver Recovery is designed to recover email that you filed under "Saved on My PC" in AOL 8 or AOL 9 (including 9.1 and 9.5.) ePreserver Recovery will NOT work if you read your email in your browser on www.aol.com, nor will ePreserver Recovery work with AOL 10 or AOL Desktop. If you aren't sure, click the Download link to try the demo. Your message must appear in the demo or it can't be recovered.
Forensic Investigators should use ePreserver Forensic instead.
