I have recieved an email purportedly from Sky Mail as follows 'Your mailbox account failed to sync and returned 4 incoming emails. Synchronisation was unsuccessful because your mailbox could not be validated. Is this a scam as there is a link to click on to retrieve your lost emails?

The bit highlighted in bold is a tell tale sign that it is a scam as Sky would never send out emails like this inviting you to to click through a link.
