Restore email

[#1]

Please raise a ticket to restore archived messages. (I'd have raised a ticket myself if I could find where to do it.)

Hi @emptynet 

A warm welcome to the forums.  Indeed if only - this has been discussed recently by the super users...!

Hi @emptynet 

While I can't actually see anything confirming that emails on your account have been archived recently, I've submitted the unarchive request to try and restore emails if they've been archived and the account is missing the confirmation for some reason.

The requests are processed in a batch, every 30 minutes. Please note it may take some time to restore the mail, especially if the mailbox was very large.

I hope this helps.

Email archiving

Plusnet has two email content archiving 'events'

1. Exceeding the Fair Usage Policy (FUP): This is invoked when the sum of the contents of all of your email boxes exceeds the 1GB FUP allowance. Users will have received warning notices for several weeks, having exceeded 75% of the FUP. After 2 warnings of having exceeded 100% of the FUP, mailboxes are archived to bring the FUP utilisation down below 100%. The act of archiving emails is recorded in the user's ticket history - see the PN tickets link below
2. Mailbox not accessed for a while: After a period of not accessing a mailbox (it not being logged into) the contents are archived. An email is sent to that mailbox advising of the archiving action, after it has been archived. No record of the action is recorded in the ticket history

Archives are retained for 30 days. When making a request to unarchive emails, it is very helpful to inform staff which of the above archives appears to have been performed - it stops them looking for non-existent tickets!
