How Do I Get The Missing CR4 Newsletters That Yahoo Threw Away?

09/18/2013 2:35 AM

Due to a Laptop "Crash", I was completely "OffLine" for some days. In that time, Yahoo closed my email account with them and emptied the mail out (thanks a bunch Yahoo!!).

A pretty unfriendly way to handle a customer I find, so be wary of Yahoo and email. No other provider is so quick off the mark, all my other mail accounts were still working and usable, but from other providers...I was only offline 3 weeks, what would happen if I went on holiday for a month (I am retired!!)

Is there a place online by CR4 where I can still find them?

Thanks for any help.

How did yahoo did that? I almost never use Yahoo, but it never closed down my mail, are you not active much on it? There was a mail a few weeks back to keep it activated i think.

I was offline for some weeks, when I went to read my mail it simply told me that my email box had been discontinued. So Guys, if you use Yahoo, don't go on holiday for a month!!!!

Sorry that you're having email problems. I prefer Gmail!

Archives of all of the newsletters except for the CR4 Daily Digest are found here. I'm not sure why the Digest isn't archived but I think it has to do with its being built differently than the other newsletters.

Your best bet for seeing what you missed:

  1. View the list of recent forum threads.
  2. View the blog entries on the homepage or this link, which will also show you all of the engineering news that you missed.

Not exactly what you're asking, but you could try Farcebook.

I use 2 Yahoo emails, 1 .ca and 1 .com as storage and sometimes don't sign in to my accounts for up to 6 months or longer and my accounts are still active even after that amount of time. So maybe it's just Yahoo Germany thats the problem Not Yahoo in general or maybe its another reason.

I have a Yahoo account which I set up specifically to use at Web sites which require I give them an email but from whom I never care to hear again. I seldom even look at it, but it's still active. In fact, not long ago Yahoo sent me a notice that "Now is a good time to try for that perfect email address!" They were going to recycle email addresses that hadn't been used and were offering them up to others. (No Thanks! I don't want to get spam meant for someone else. I get enough of my own.)

If I had known your Yahoo email address, I bet I could have grabbed it then.
