Only 3 weeks deleted items history

stuart103 — Wed, 11 Sep 2024 09:33:23 GMT

I have outlook connected to my sky email and noticed my deleted items only show 3-4 weeks history, anything later appears to have gone completely. Logged onto sky email direct and its the same on there so obviously not an outlook issue, how do i change this as if i need to look back at an hostorical email i can no longer do so ???

Don't delete them.

Create a separate folder for items you've read, but want to keep available.

It's not possible to change Sky/Yahoo's deletion timeframe.

Thought that would be the case, many thanks for confirming, appreciated

Whilst I am not 100% sure I think the deleted folder is automatically emptied every 30 days or so which is why it isn't a good idea to save you stored emails in it.

I have a Gmail account and they do something similar.
