Windows 10: Missing Emails

I am missing 2+ years of emails from march of this year, to about March of 2019, though my emails before and after are there. I have checked SPAM, trash, archived, saved, and all folders. Nothing. Nothing at all. Help me Obi One, you are my only hope......

:)

 

Email contacts missing

1. If you open Mail app and click the + sign for New mail > type first couple of letters of a contact name > will a list of suggested names appear ?

2. Go to All apps > scroll to P > click People. Is the contact list there ?

 

Why did the startup window get cleared?

I didn't missed any step, the list was gone and gone , even after using lot of programs the programs were not listed in that list.

 

Missing emails

This may or may not be related to your problem, but it has caused some problems with my email setup. If you or someone sends an email to you and to 1 or more lists that you are on, you will likely only get the copy that was sent directly to you -- leaving off any list-specific information or stamping.

Google discards anything they consider to be a copy (even though the mail through a list reflector and to you directly aren't the same due to list headers and email path) -- google only pays attention to the first copy of the content it sees. Anything else isn't stored or processed.

So if any of the emails you are missing may have their content in your Sent file or some such place, there's a good chance that google has disposed of the other copy for you. They call this mandatory deletion a "feature" and seem to think everyone loves it so they don't bother to make it an option. Of course the realize is that anyone using gmail is allowing google to index their email as part of their AI-training and google doesn't want to really store all the email you get -- only the unique copies that you get. They can store pointers (via labels) so it will sort in multiple places, but they really only want 1 copy.

Perhaps some variation on this has bit you.
Cheers and good luck finding your emails. At the very least, you might try signing into gmail and looking through the normally hidden "All mail", which contains all your emails that you have not explicitly purged.
