I'm not aware of any way to retrieve Yahoo mail once it's
deleted.

Depending on your Yahoo, you can sign up for premium services
that will allow you to access your email with a normal mail
program. Check with Yahoo for more information. But that has
nothing to do with anything already deleted.

Thanks for asking,

Leo
