Hello Apple Community,
I’ve had a similar issue with Yahoo Mail on an iPad, and it can be surprisingly inconsistent when only certain senders’ messages fail to arrive. Since you’re able to send emails normally, I’d first check whether the missing messages are being filtered into Spam, Trash, or another folder, and then verify the account’s Mail settings and sync options on the iPad. It’s also worth checking your Yahoo account through a web browser to see whether those emails are actually reaching the account but simply not syncing to the iPad. If the same senders’ messages are missing there too, check your blocked addresses and filters in Yahoo Mail. If they appear on the web but not in the iPad app, removing and adding the Yahoo account again may refresh the connection and fix the syncing problem...
Thanks a lot!!

click here If you can't receive email on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
If the link doesn't help then the next step is to contact AT&T/Yahoo support.
