Ask HN: Yahoo deleted all my emails. Now what?

6•neya•2h ago
Logged into my old email after a year - it has everything setup with recent details, so I know for a fact it isn't more than a year. To my shock, all my data is now gone. Just a simple `fuck you` email at the top of my inbox. Is there any way to recover my old emails? Unfortunately I used to use this as my main account since the early 2000s. No shady stuff, just your average joe with an average email. Here's the only email now in my account:

Dear Yahoo Mail Member,

We’re so glad to see you’re back! Due to inactivity, your mailbox entered an inactive state. This means we stopped accepting your incoming emails. If your period of inactivity was long enough, we also deleted all of your emails. Now that you’ve signed back in, your mailbox has been reactivated and you will start receiving new emails again shortly. For more information, please visit the Yahoo Mail policy page at: https://en-global.help.yahoo.com/kb/mail/SLN2018.html

We’ve made some upgrades to your email experience since the last time you signed in. Now Yahoo Mail has a cleaner design and upgraded features to help you keep your inbox in order. Find whatever you need quickly without the clutter. Search by keyword, contact, date or any combination of these. With themes, you can pick your favourite colour and the level of intensity. The choice is yours. Stay on top of everything on the go. The top-rated Yahoo Mail app makes life easy to manage with features such as Subscriptions View. See all the mailing lists you’re subscribed to and easily unsubscribe with a single tap. You can download it here: https://mail.onelink.me

We hope that you enjoy your new Yahoo Mail experience.

Thank you,

The Yahoo Mail team

I read my Yahoo account with Thunderbird, which stores messages on my hard drive.

Now what?

Now it’s time to pay for a good email service, like Tuta, Proton or Fastmail.

Thanks, I'm already on Proton, just wanted to know if there is a way to recover the lost emails...
