Are messages missing that you believe should be in your Yahoo Mail?

0:00:07.000,0:00:11.333
Is it possible that they are in a different folder?

0:00:11.333,0:00:15.399
If you know the sender’s name or when the email arrived...

0:00:15.400,0:00:19.166
...try sorting the folder to make the message easier to find

0:00:19.166,0:00:23.066
Try searching for anything you can remember about the message

Let’s say you last saw the messages 3 days ago

0:00:50.266,0:00:53.166
Messages from 3 to 7 days ago might be restored

0:00:53.166,0:00:56.732
