Sorting trashed emails

I deleted an email by accident. It was in one of my travel folders and I need it but don’t know which email it was. How can I sort trashed emails so the most recently trashed comes up first? It was most likely an email from six months ago.

The trash usually ends up sorting it out from the date that it was received. It doesn’t sort them out in the order that they were trashed. It also doesn’t keep them in the folder that they were in. Once it is trashed, it is considered not wanted anymore so it just puts them in the trash in line from the order that they were received. Your best bet is to figure out when it was received and start looking in those dates.
