Recovering emails deleted during an OWA session

Running SBS2K. Although I've setup Exchange to allow recovery of deleted items for 7 days (and it works just fine for network workstations), there doesn't appear to be any way to recover emails deleted during an OWA session. Is there something I'm missing?

TIA,

Mark
 
What SP are you at on Exchange?

I know with SP3 and all hotfixes, there's a "Recover Deleted Items" icon right next to the "Empty Deleted Items Folder" on the menu bar.

You can also recover deleted items by connecting to the mailbox using a standard Outlook program.

Could be down to the fact that the MAPI client accesses the Information Store directly and the OWA client goes though the HTTP Virtual server.

If you delete an item in outlook by holding down shift and bypassing the Deleted items folder, it will not show up when you try to recover it. This could work in the same way for OWA clients
