Subject: Re: [Gmail-Users] emails going straight to Trash

Bill,

Perhaps you have a filter that's trashing anything from "@aol.com".  Filters can be created for just a domain name.

Also, if you're syncing your account with any email programs on your computer, check to see if anything there could be deleting some emails.

​I don't believe there is any way for a message to end up in Trash, other than (1) you (or someone) clicking the Delete button, or (2) a Filter.  Gmail doesn't delete messages by itself!

That's probably why there is no Filter option, to prevent something that doesn't happen.

Check your Filters for one that deletes messages.  You may have forgotten that it's there.

​Sorry, but I would guess there may be no way to call Google customer support.  Imagine if they had hundreds of millions of people trying to call them.  Their phone lines would melt.

There are phone numbers to some Google offices but they probably do not send you to customer support.

Maybe you can try again with the recovery steps.  If your security information was up to date, or if you answer the questions correctly, it makes a big difference.  It might have made the recovery instantaneous instead of taking days.

You could set a filter at your gmail web view to deal with mail from your wife, that includes never treat as spam/trash and maybe add a star or specific folder?

There is no 1:1 support from Google for any free Google products;  use the Google Gmail forum.  https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!forum/gmail

Keith,
FYI, there is no option to never send to trash.  Only an option to never send to spam.
