Hello,

When using search within Yahoo mail on desktop chrome, firefox, or android mobile app, I cannot get any results older than July 2017.  I can browse inbox, folders and see old emails but when using search box, there are no results prior to 2017.  Almost like there is a retention being applied to search index.


Windows / Chrome 114.0.0.0

Hi,

You may need to enter search parameters.

Does that work if you type year:2016 for example?
