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.

Where are the emails that I had in my inbox from earlier than this last month? Where is the common courtesy of letting someone know that they're about to loose emails that they've been saving for years down at the bottom ot their inbox?

Wtf all my emails and contacts from my childhood are GONE. WHY?? I get it, you need to clear your servers. But we did not get notice. One year of not logging in is way too short. What if I had gotten into an accident and hadn't recovered in a year to access my computer? A trip, a foreign exchange, could be a year long. I could be travelling for a year and not need to log in. Just like that, my whole digital record through my childhood and teenage are GONE. Deleted forever. They had some of my most precious moments. Not going to use Yahoo again. Going to recommend everyone around me to stop using Yahoo thank you. You didn't even give us an opportunity to read any notice and a bit of time to download the data by the next time we logged in.

if your messages go to archive. check the setting, click more setting, click filters, then see if filter has been created. if there is any then delete the filter. (usually hackers do this)

if you havent logged in to your account more than 12 months, your mailbox became deactivated and mailbox is wipeout. theres nothing you can do to restore. we can only restore missing, deleted emails if deleted within the last 7 days regardless of when you originally received the message.

Why aren't my saved emails going into boxes? Instead, they're going into the Archive!
