Hello @user_903de2, thanks for reaching out for help with your email recovery. We do have an option available to restore deleted emails, and you will have 30 days to recover any deleted emails before they become permanently unavailable.

If you follow this link: https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/recover-deleted-email, we have a helpful article on how you can recover deleted emails from your Xfinity Email account.

If you are using the Xfinity Web Portal to manage your emails, the Sent folder should not be automatically deleted. If you are using a 3rd party client, such as outlook, its possible there was a rule set up to auto delete the sent folder once emails reach a certain age. However, if the emails were auto cleaned, following the steps in the link above should recover any emails deleted within the last 30 days. 

If this does not restore the content you are looking for, we sadly do not have a way to recover any lost emails.

I just had the same situation, thousands of emails from sent folder are missing after a specific date, what happened on that data? I did not delete them!!    Xfinity has DR and Back-up systems.  I have been on the phone for hours, holding, getting transfer around.  What happened?   I am not using a mail client, I have never used a mail client, I use either comcast.net or xfinity.com to access to my mail.  There has to be a way to rebuild my sent folder?     Can anyone

help?? Please.

My sent emails are not appearing and I cannot search for email in my inbox.  This just happened a couple days ago. I can't seem to find any answers here.

@joym1 Thank you for reaching out and brining this to our attention. I can see how this would be frustrating. Are you using a 3rd party email client by chance? Are you checking from the website or mobile device? 

 

I no longer work for Comcast.
