Restore deleted audio logs

I accidentally deleted an audio log retrieved from a generation ship. I returned to the ship but I cannot restore the lost log, it says "uplink data already accessed". Please, anyone is there anyway to reset the access to the generation ship and get my audio log back, or is it completely lost, unless I delete my save?
 
No idea. I imagine all of the collected audio messages will eventually auto-delete themselves. I'm pretty sure all my other inbox messages have auto-deleted, after enough time passes.

To me, that looks like a fundamental issue.

Some benign Messages and Records are normal to end up in the Trash Bin.
Others, however, Players might want to conserve without time limit.

That's where the ages old Idea of the "Persistent Personal Data Log" comes in : the Player building up a personal "Encyclopedia Galactica" based on Data gathered off many different Sources.
After discovery, all available for later review at anytime.
In my book, such Audio logfiles from the Generation Ships would be part of such a permanent Database of Information the Player should build up over time.

The old Problem : the total lack of Information handling, accumulation, exchange and -brokering in ELITE on an individual per-Player basis...
So be it Data gathered off Beacons, Data Links, Compromised Carrier Messages, Scans, Logs... The Message Inbox just isn't made for a sorted and permanent Storage.

Thank you for your answers, so it seems they are definitely trashed and there is no way to re-access the data points, or to listen to that audio on youtube, which is a shame, I wanted to keep those audio logs as a personal recollection :(
 
With tourist beacons, you can re-scan them after about a month and the message will be sent again. I dunno if these work the same way but it's probably better to try than to delete your save.
 
BradHann - thanks a lot, this is valuable information - I will try to access the links after some time and see if it works.
