iPhone iOS 10 mail app not showing emails

All of a sudden, the mail app on my iPhone 6 (iOS 10) does no longer show all of my Yahoo emails. I see emails from today, and a few very old emails (going back to 2009) but in between, all the emails are missing. This started when I opened the mail app yesterday and was greeted with "downloading 500 messages". After my iPhone was done with "downloading 500 messages" most of my recent emails were gone. I can only get to my Yahoo mail using the Yahoo Mail app (which *****). No problems on my iPad air 2.

iPhone 6, iOS 10.0.2

I now have a similar problem where my yahoo email was working fine on iOS and for no reason today. I looked at my inbox and it says 'No Mail'. I can still send email but can't view any received and I have tried everything, removed and rewarded email account, restarted the phone, reset network settings, turned off the secure key feature on yahoo mail online and also allowed access to less secure apps in their settings. The account sets up fine but then it still shows no mail. I don't receive any errors at all. Can you help?

All of a sudden my inbox is only showing past few days emails. If I search by name I can find older but lots not showing. I deleted account and reinstalled but no luck. Very frustrated.

Same problem here after moving to a new iPhone, which I set up from an encrypted iTunes backup. Have tried deleting the email account and re-installing after hard reset, but I still can see only my most recent emails 😟 Must be a bug in the lastest version of iOS Mail. Does anyone have any other suggestions on how this issue could be solved?
