Hi - I hope someone can help...

I access my yahoo emails via the iphone mail app. I just noticed yesterday that every email I sent from September 2021 to June 2024 has disappeared from my sent box on both the apple blue envelope email app on my iphone and if I sign in to my yahoo email through a browser. I don't know exactly when this happened.

I contacted yahoo and they did a restore - however this only got back 15 spam emails I had deleted from my inbox over the past 7 days. Yahoo told me this has happened to other yahoo customers who use the apple mail app and not the yahoo mail app and that there is nothing that yahoo can do.

I'm in shock that this has happened.

If anyone has any advice I would be extremely grateful.

Nothing you can do if Yahoo support can't help you.

Your emails is store on their server not Apples.

Emails aren't part of the icloud or itunes backup.
