Sent emails disappeared

Hi can someone help me? I used an ntlworld email address.

My Sent emails for the past 15+ years have suddenly disappeared. There are now only about 20 recent Sent emails.

My Inbox seems unaffected.

  • Keep me posted as I have a similar problem with a Blueyonder and Virginmedia email. I cannot get access and cannot change the password.

      I have a similar issue but opposite problem, 3000 old emails appeared unopened in my inbox, and many others deleted appeared in Junk, Sent and Drafts.  And all emails in in-box between end of Sept 24 and today are missing. I have posted as separate topic but no reply from Virgin yet.

  • Hi cronshd 👋

    Welcome to our Community Forums and thanks for your post. 

    We're sorry to hear this!

    How are you accessing your mailbox? Is it through Webmail or third party email client?

      Hi Ayisha

      on a desktop I use webmail - mail.virgin media.com from Chrome using Windows.

      I also use an iPad to access my email. Both show that all my emails in the ‘Sent’ folder prior to 28/1/2025 have disappeared, although there were 2 additional emails in that folder, one from 2022 and another from 2021, but they disappeared 24 hours ago, after I first reported the problem.

      Emails sent from 28th January seem to be all in place, at the moment.

      Have you any ideas where they have disappeared to? I was subject to the email problem which affected lots of people - in Jul 2023. All me emails were correctly restored after that.

      My Inbox seems unaffected at the moment.

      I have been a Virgin customer for a long time (hence the ntlworld email address) and the email has usually been ok. I did have some problems with the 403 Forbidden screen in 2024, but Tehnical Support fixed that for me.

      How can this be progressed?

      Thanks, D.
