Did you think well
As they say, think seven times - delete once. One way or another, leaving Yandex is a little more difficult than registering there. Why the user might need this is another matter. If there are good reasons for such a radical step, then no problem.
In the event that you decide to delete your account along with all letters and contacts due to some problems, do not rush to attack from the shoulder - try to explore the possibilities of correcting the situation while maintaining the address. There is technical support on the site especially for this - just knock on the door. Don’t give away your method of communication with the outside world, known to all your loved ones and acquaintances, just like that!
Moreover, remember that an attempt to block an unauthorized recipient in this way will result in the loss of not only mail with letters, but also the entire Yandex account and the services associated with it: Disk, Maps, Money, Music, etc.
Are you ready to give up all the amenities provided to resource users in one fell swoop?

About mail recovery
How to restore a deleted Yandex profile?
The thing is that technically there is no way to do this. Once the delete operation is confirmed, all user data will be erased from the main server. And therefore it will not be possible to return them.
The only thing the user can do is restore the login. That is, reuse it to work with the mail service. But recovery occurs no earlier than a month after the box is removed.
It turns out that recovery of deleted mail does not take place. A person will be able to use the released login during registration, but nothing more. Restoration is carried out by regular registration on the Yandex.Mail service.
When deleting mail in Yandex, pay attention to the following
If you are thinking about uninstalling your mail from Yandex forever, then keep in mind that if you later suddenly change your mind and want to return the deleted data, it will no longer be possible to do this. Therefore, do not rush to delete the mailbox in a state of passion, if you received an unpleasant letter from an annoying interlocutor (it can always be sent to the black list), or your mailbox is full of spam (you can set up special filters) or you received an SMS message about that a third party is changing your account data (this can also be prevented by changing your password and contacting technical support).
If you simply forgot your email password, you can always recover it using the standard procedure, or contact the same technical support service for assistance, and for this there is no need to delete your personal Yandex email.
Remember that after deleting your account, you will not be able to create a box with an identical login for six months, so weigh the pros and cons, and if you have made a firm decision, then move on to the next point. You may also be interested in the algorithm for getting rid of Mail.ru mail.
