Windows 10: Move items i delete in inbox to deleted folder

I have just noted while deleting items in the Inbox that sometimes I am asked whether to delete permanently, mostly I am not. In the past items I deleted went into the Deleted folder so in the event of deleting something in error, I could retrieve it.
Today I accidentally deleted an email and it did not go into the Deleted folder - it has just been permanently deleted.
What has changed?
On a related issue, having lost this email I tried Folder - Recover Deleted Items but this option is greyed out.
Are these Outlook improvements!!*sarc

*Confused

Will I be forever stuck with these unnecessary folders? *Oh Well hwell:

 

Outlook 2007 Deleted items


Hi there

@Take a guess


on IMAP if you set in the config operations for each account you have the problems with -- Root Folder -->INBOX there should then be a deleted items folder. Restart outlook and when you delete items they should then go to the deleted items folder. Use Empty folder to purge the email.


Outlook 2007 and 2010 will work the same

Step 1 in account config -->change-->advanced choose the last tab and then enter INBOX (in English should be Root Folder in the menu)





Step 2 now do New folder on tab 3 and create Deleted Items on the server for the account





Step 3 move mouse to newly created folder for deleted items - your deleted items should now go into that folder after you restart Outlook. You might have to move the underlined mail etc first and then purge.
