It may be possible to recover some erased ones, but you must quit using the Computer immediately, because the OS will think it can write to those freed blocks on the disk.


Either boot this one in Target mode...

And recovering from another Mac.


There are data recovery Apps like Data Rescue...

"Stellar Phoenix Macintosh - Mac data recovery software, recovers data from damaged, deleted, or corrupted volumes and even from initialized disks."


They have a trial version, so I guess you can see if your data can be recovered...

FileSalvage is an extremely powerful Macintosh application for exploring and recovering deleted files from a drive or volume. FileSalvage is designed to restore files that have:


    * been accidentally deleted.


    * become unreadable due to media faults.


    * been stored on a drive before it was re-initialized/formatted.

If this is an IMAP account I'd use a Browser to log into your WebMail & see if they are still in the trash there.
