I communicate via protonmail with another protonmail user. We usually have no problem sending and receiving each others emails. However, I recently sent this person two emails with a sensitive legal attachment. These emails never arrived at the recipient. They simply disappeared. Later in the day, I sent a test email to them. That went through fine. Is it possible someone intercepted or hacked my emails with the legal attachment?

Hi Paul.

I trust you are well.

One of my clients has all his sent email from the Sent Items folder disappearing every 2nd month. This happens on both his Outlook client, as well as the Exchange Server.
I searched for his sent items on OWA, and there’s nothing there.
Setting for his sent items is set correctly to Save copies of messages in the sent items folder and
Save Forwarded messages.
How can i find or trace where the sent emails disappeared to? Please help.
Thanks.
Maxwell.

Hi Paul,

I may not be an expert in the systems like you are, I have a question for you please, My company received an email from a customer that my employee saw, but later we cannot see that email like it disappeared, and we cannot find it into the deleted emails or in the server log. The customer resent an email with attached the forwarded email for confirmation.
Is there any scenario that this may happen? even rare? the future of an employee is depending on your answer
