  4. Entered YID should match with signed in YID. And I am losing my e-mails progressively, it seems. Thank you Yahoo.

    I am progressively losing my e-mails in my inbox, while my outbox dates back to 2009. I have no idea what is doing this, but I am forced to change to another e-mail service provider given how critical this error is. There is simply no excuse for this.

  7. I don't have any suggestions, but I think some hackers got my yahoo key code somehow, because I see a little red dot sometimes at top email.

    I also got a message text on my cell phone that my yahoo key code was changed, I did not change it, so don't you have to request the change?

  10. Whyi s my email address shohwing on the screen when I enter yahoo mail? whyd o I have to add an account to use a different account?

    I recently changed the password on my email account. I never keep my self signed in, yet when I open the email tab on Yahoo it opens to this one account that I can click on or add a new account. I prefer the old screen where I have to enter the address then password. How can I go back to that screen and get rid of what I feel is a breech on my privacy?

  14. For the last one week, my Password does not work. I have to start from "Forgot my Password". Look into this issue.

    It is good idea that we should change our password frequently. But in my case for the last one week I have to start from "Forgot my password" and have to sign in new password every time. This was not happening earlier. Is there any change in our policy? Is this happening with others also or with me only? I would like to have your views and how I can resolve this issue.

  16. It is unacceptable for you to steal 1/3 of my screen for ads. Ever.

    It is unacceptable for you to steal 1/3 of my screen for ads. Ever. I am tired of perpetually being pushed to tolerate more and more. If the future of Yahoo Mail is primarily about ads and not email, I am out of here... There are numerous other options.

  18. My 2 email accounts stopped working a month ago. Can't access them. need help but cannot contact U

    neither of my email accounts work - they stopped a month ago. I can occasionally get in one or the other but when I click the mail icon, the sign up window does not appear and when it does sometimes, after I type in my account name, sometimes it will not bring up the password screen and if I am able to put in my password, it will just sit there and the little circle goes round and round and it will not let me into my mail. Need help. Please call at 817-581-6024. Thank you
