Mail opens, but something is wrong
- Incoming mail is missing alongside an unfamiliar filter or forwarding setting.
- Your Reply-to address, sending name or signature has changed.
- An unknown connected app or app password appears in account security settings.
What your review should establish
- Filters, forwarding where available and blocked addresses match choices you made.
- Reply-to, sending name, signature and automatic replies contain only your intended settings.
- Unwanted app access is revoked and unknown app passwords are removed separately.
Reading your inbox successfully does not finish the security review. Check both mail access and the settings that change correspondence.
Missing Yahoo mail: settings check or restore request?
Account access and message restoration are separate tasks. Establish whether settings changed before treating missing mail as deletion.
Inspect filters and forwarding where available. Undo unfamiliar changes; this does not itself restore deleted messages.
Yahoo Mail settingsYahoo's official mail restore request may apply, regardless of when the messages originally arrived. Restoration is not guaranteed.
Yahoo Help → mail restorationSpam and Draft messages are excluded from restoration. HackMachine cannot extend Yahoo's 7-day restore window.
Yahoo mail restore limitsHackMachine guides checks on your own mailbox. It cannot supply missing message content or guarantee that a restore request succeeds.
