I don’t understand. I’m in tears. ALL of my emails are completely gone. Even archived ones. My old phone broke with my passwords, and was unable to get on my yahoo and hotmail. Life happens. I never received any type of warning/notification or anything. However, my Hotmail/outlook is fine although the timing was the same as yahoo. How can you do this to people?! I had photos and emails from my grandfather who has now passed. I had important documents. I had emails I absolutely loved and so many photos/memories. Other email services don’t do this to people. I have hotmail/outlook and gmail. You break people’s hearts. Please help restore our emails. Please. And please stop doing this. No one should use this It’s terrible.

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.

when deleting all messages then by default starred messages should not get deleted or at the least get prompted If we would like to delete or keep starred messages.

Very upset that yahoo deleted my emails because you felt I was not using my email often enough! I had very important emails that were deleted. The 7 day recovery is a joke. How about restoring all the emails you deleted without my knowledge or approval?!

80% of Sent mail does not show in sent box. Sometimes comes in for a minute then disappears. You never know what you have sent because it isn't showing in SENT BOX. Same as many others. I do not see any help in forum.

All of my emails have been erased and I could not be more upset. I’ve never had such an awful email account as my yahoo. How can anyone do this to a person? with zero warning pictures, videos, and other email content that was very important to me has been erased without my permission. I will contact customer service to see if my emails can be restored but this is unacceptable and I will tell anyone and everyone not to use yahoo mail.
