I screwed up. I accidentally deleted my entire yahoo " inbox " and then trashed it. Irreplaceable emails, orders, and messages from friends who have since died.
Can anyone tell me how to try to recover the emails? Sadly, there are about 1,000 of them.
I immediately contacted the yahoo receovery site last night, but no response from them yet.
I don't feel quite so stupid, after I got this message from yahoo today: (and they did recover all the lost emails) - Sandy

On June 6, we identified an issue in Yahoo Mail that may have temporarily removed emails from the inbox when the Trash folder was emptied. The issue has been fixed, and our engineering team is working around the clock to restore these messages. All emails should be fully restored by Monday, June 15, 2015.

Been there, done that.
Have you invoke Yahoo's recovery system?
