accidentally deleted a blocked sender instead of restoring it

hunterfga9 — Mon, 18 Jul 2022 15:14:33 GMT

Hi everyone, this is a problem that I'm not sure anyone can solve, however here goes!

From yahoo mail, i went to the list of blocked senders ( in security and privacy ) and wanted to restore an accidentally blocked sender. Having found the sender in the list, instead of unblocking the sender I accidentally deleted it. Now I cannot find any way to get it back and unblock it. Is there any way that I could do this? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Patrick

Do you have any emails from this sender that was sent to you before you blocked them ?

No sadly I do not have any as I regularly empty the deleted e mail box. I have tried searching my i Mac using the search facility which is normally really good, but there is nothing there either. I can get the sender to send me a new e mail but I'm sure that it will be blocked by the Yahoo/sky server.

Give it a try as it has to be worth a try.

THanks, I will tyry and get them to re send me an e mail, as you say it is worth a try. Howevewr the e mail message is not just to me but to a group and peolple in the group regularly receive these e mails and we do not. So I guess that the sky/yahoo server is now blocking them. Thanks for your suggestion.

Add the sender to your list of contacts if they are not already there.
