The limit on the other side is six months. I have recently lost a few important mails that were a few days shy of being six months old. Does anyone know if there is any way for the mail to be retrieved, or is it automatically deleted and lost?

If you go to Mail Controls, you will see the first section says Save all messages to your registered email address.
This will send any and all messages you have received in the last 6 months. Even ones you deleted for whatever reason.
Perhaps you will find the missing ones in that batch. Good luck!

Edited to add that the Mail Control button appears in the top right corner when you open your mailbox.

Thank you poise.

I tried it, now to wait and see. (I do have 65 pages of sent email alone, but only 20 received. This might take a while.)
