  2. Why did you PURGE LEGACY ATT.NET email accounts? No notice, and 25 years of contacts are now inaccessible????

    My att.net email account was DISABLED WITHOUT NOTICE. NO ONE CAN FIX THIS PROBLEM. I understand that Yahoo is eliminating ATT legacy accounts. NO NOTICE????? Do you realize the impact of losing 25+ years of contacts, saved emails from people now deceased and the inconvenience of reestablishing professional contacts? What is the matter with you???

    Are your emails and contacts missing? If you haven’t signed in to Yahoo Mail for 12 months or more, your mailbox is considered inactive. An inactive mailbox stops receiving new emails, and all mailbox contents, folders, contacts and settings are permanently deleted.

    Yahoo Mail maintains the content of your mailbox as long as it remains active. Sign in to your mailbox at least once every 12 months to keep it active. Content deleted from an inactive mailbox can’t be restored.

  7. Not able to view meeting details

    I use an android phone, and it is not showing me any meeting details on the yahoomail app, when someone sends me one. Ironically, this is not the case with the desktop version of yahoomail, which has a calender in-built and seamlessly show the meeting time, date, etc. The yahoomail android app seems devoid of such a small but important feature. How to get around this ?

  10. Recover emails from childhood as well as the deceased

    Hello,

    I had an email account from 2001-2005. I am absolutely devastated all my emails are gone when Yahoo decided to erase all our content. I must have some written when I was around 13 years-old that were on there. Also I had emails from my grandmother. She died in 2008. Is there anyway to get these emails back?

    Thank you,

    Hi there,

    We are sorry to hear about your loss!

    If an account is unused or dormant for 12 months, it is deactivated and its emails are deleted, more info here: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN2018.html

    If this does not apply to you, You can try doing a search or doing an email restore if the email was deleted in the past 7 days.

    help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN2552.html

    In case you are using a mail client such as Outlook or the Native mobile app, emails may be deleted by that third party client. We do recommend accessing your mail via http://yahoo.com or the Yahoo Mail app to avoid this issue.

  11. allow pictures in business email profile

    Please allow Yahoo business email users to add a profile picture.
    This is should be a basic feature of every email. When people receive an email from our company, it should not have a random avatar. FYI - We pay for the Web Hosting Premier Annual Plan; and it should be available for everyone.

  14. WHY ARE YOU EMPTYING MY DELETED ITEMS AFTER ONLY 10 DAYS

    It's 9th September. I tried to go back into my deleted items and re-look at an email from 28th August and it's GONE. WTF. When did you suddenly start doing this. Please restore my deleted items until I decide to delete them or at least don't rip out deleteds from the last day of the month on the first of the next month. This is ****. I just re-read an email in my Microsoft LIVE email account from 11th Jan 2021. Are these stupid decisions made by little kids?

  20. Unable to delete original password recovery email

    The original password recovery email does NOT have an icon to edit or delete it, and so there is no way to remove it, even if you no longer have access to that email address. This is unacceptable, because my original password recovery email address was on Excite, and Excite is closing down in a week, so of course I'll have no further access to that account.
