emails gone
I admit I have not logged into this email account for a while, maybe about six months or so, but I come back and see that all my emails are gone? That is kinda one of the most basic things an email service is supposed to do isn't it? Hold onto emails? And if you guys were going to dump all my emails it seems like I should of gotten some notice or some warning... or some chance to save those emails.
I hope yahoo will be able to resolve this matter.

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.

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.

You wiped all email from the inbox linked to my small business account.
How am I supposed to run a business if you arte going to erase all my emails without notice ?? -

Wiped out yrs of email / history.
All because a person doesn't sign in when you want them to.
Life is so much more complicated than that and with all these time restricted deadlines for everything we only have one strand of hair left to pull out.
We should have the ability to back up our emails and restore from back ups.
Its not fair yahoo should have all our life history and we don't. -

It's great having you back in business after all these years. I can see your security has gone up with the multiple 'prove you're not a robot' while I was signing in. 🤣😃😂😆 Nice having you back but I lost everything, everything in my inbox! 😊 Can't I just get anything back? Messages, contacts, drafts and others 😊👍💖

Could you please restore all my previous emails, and photos, that were in my inbox. I know that I haven't accessed the account for more than 12 months, but that was because I couldn't remember the password.
Now that I have found it, I wish to have all the old emails, and contact list. Otherwise, there won't be any point my having this new account.
Thankyou.

Due to the Global Pandemic (remember that?) I was not able to get to this email account for quite a while. Now I come to find out that you have deemed this account 'inactive' and deleted everything except my contacts...Years and years of email deleted and you say they are gone for good. messages from friends I can never get back I really think you should have waited much longer to delete everything
y'know, due to the GLOBAL PANDEMIC and all.
Oh, and yes, I did get it and lost people to it as well -

There was an email sent to me some time back that I saved in a folder from Cathy Wakabyashi that even though I put it in a folder for safe-keeping you managed to lose it. When did crazy people begin running Yahoo?
