Does yahoo mail delete archive
According to Yahoo's official documentation, when you archive an email in Yahoo Mail, it is not deleted permanently. Instead, it is moved to the "Archived" folder, which is a separate folder from your inbox.
Archived emails are still stored on Yahoo's servers and can be recovered if needed. However, it's worth noting that Yahoo Mail has a retention policy, which means that emails may be deleted after a certain period of time if they are not accessed or interacted with.
Here are some details on Yahoo Mail's retention policy:
- Yahoo Mail retains emails for a minimum of 1 year, but this period may vary depending on the type of account you have and the laws of your country or region.
- If you have a Yahoo Mail account that is not active (i.e., you haven't logged in for a long time), Yahoo may delete your emails after a certain period of time.
- If you have a Yahoo Mail account that is linked to a Yahoo account that is no longer active, Yahoo may delete your emails after a certain period of time.
It's also important to note that Yahoo Mail may delete emails that are considered "spam" or "junk" emails, even if they are archived.
If you're concerned about the longevity of your archived emails, you may want to consider downloading them to your computer or external hard drive, or using a third-party email client that allows you to access your Yahoo Mail account and download emails.
