How to get back your deleted message in Facebook
In Facebook, now you can also recover your deleted messages or a group of messages from your inbox which can be your recieved or sent messages or simply updates from the different pages that you have joined. It’s not a trick or anything like it, rather it’s just a feature added by Facebook without any notification or update in their official blog.
To recover a deleted message, find the link of undo in a yellow box below the button of “+ Compose”. Check out the screen Shot below.

This link will appear in your inbox whenever you delete one or more of messages that might be received or sent messages. You can also undo the deleted updates from the pages. This feature helps to clean inbox faster as you don’t have to confirm “are you sure want to delete this message” every time, but you still don’t have an option of recovering an old deleted message that you have deleted a long while ago. However to read an old message that is no more in your inbox, you can check your e-mails as Facebook always send you an e-mail notification in your mailbox whenever you recieves a new message.
I would like all my sent and received messages back because I have been hacked and they have chatted to very important people that I would like to see.
Well in that case check your e-mail which’s related to your facebook account as we get an e-mail every time when we send or receive a message.
there was none on my email because they knew that as well
hey i can only see the messages i have recieved not the message i have sent in my e-mail account
sent msgs will be in receiver’s e-mail account.
