I accidentally deleted an email online in my Drafts folder in BT Yahoo! webmail ! :doh:

Clicked on the Delete dustbin icon, next to the Search icon in the email preview pane centre column shown below.

There is no delete confirmation and it's not in my Trash folder.


Yes, very annoying, sorting out something and in split second I've deleted something I want to keep !! :mad:


Is there any way to get it back, restore the draft email ?

    Did you get as far as adding a subject to the draft? If so, try an Advanced Search (unlikely to work but give it a go)...Advanced Search, you first need to use the Mail Search facility.
    When you get your results, on the left hand side you get a section headed "Refine Results"

    Below this you get "Advanced Search" and "Search Tips"

    Clicking on "Advanced Search" you get all sorts of options one of which is selecting the folders to search.

    Good thinking.

    I thought of that shortly after I deleted it, that maybe it would still appear in email Searches.

    Unfortuntately it doesn't.
