    Did you successfully have them, or most of them, restored?

    There was an issue with Yahoo itself. They sent out an email acknowledging it and all my emails were restored within a few days of their email.

    I suggest reporting it to Microsoft officially. I have reported it and was told by support staff they were not aware of any such problems. I found two possible causes: 1) synching email with a Yahoo account, as Yahoo let’s you grab email from other accounts and or 2) Using the new Outlook desktop/laptop client. Both seemed to trigger the problem for me.

    Same happened to me - all messages in my inbox, send, etc are gone - noticed that when I opened my hotmail account on Dec 3-rd, 2023.

    What is going on?
