    WRONG!! APPARENTLY, YOU DON'T NEED KARMA!! (LOL) TO "RETRIEVE" TRASH IN GMAIL, YOU NEED A "BUTTON" FOR TRASH BESIDE YOUR INBOX; (1) GO TO "LABELS" TAB IN "SETTINGS" AND CLICK "SHOW" LINK, NEXT TO TRASH LABEL; (Trash button is created!)(2)LOCATE MESSAGE YOU WANT TO MOVE TO INBOX; CHECK BOX NEXT TO SENDER'S NAME; (3) CLICK "MOVE TO INBOX"... SIMPLE AS THAT!! AND I AM AS "UNSAVVY" WITH A COMPUTER AS ANYONE IN THE ENTIRE WORLD!! (LOL) TAKE CARE, Rick

    Those steps (in all caps which means you're shouting at us) is for someone who still has mail in their Trash folder/label. The OP clearly states "emails that I have deleted from my Trash folder". They are gone.

    You know, karma, i couldn't care less about the size of the text i'm receiving or sending, or if receiving large type hurts your little-bitty feelings, okay? In gmail, one does not have a "TRASH FOLDER," as such, until they create one; so anyone could surely assume that the original question dealt with emails "UNINTENTIONALLY DELETED," period - not those "DELETED FROM THE 'TRASH FOLDER'"... the subject at the very top of the page reads, "RETRIEVING TRASH FROM GMAIL," which is clearly do-able, because "TRASH IN GMAIL" remains "UN-DELETED" for around 30 days, after which gmail automatically deletes it... so, unless the person asking the original question has already created a "TRASH BUTTON," and we assume that he/she is wanting to "RETRIEVE 'DELETED' TRASH'" and not to just simply desire to retrieve "TRASH," then i stand by my original answer... by the way, karma, i do not use the "SHIFT" button on my keyboard, any more than i must, for a good reason... enough explanation for you?

    p.s. anyone using gmail that is also tech-savvy enough to have created their own "TRASH FOLDER," (not that it takes that much 'savvy') would no doubt also need no help retrieving a "DELETED EMAIL" from that "TRASH FOLDER" they themselves created... that makes sense to me; does it make sense to you, karma? I wanted to get your input... rick
