A "possible fix" to being unable to get to read your emails in yahoo mail
My problem isn't that the folders are empty, my problem is that the folders show the emails BUT when you go to read them the emails are empty except for an add for yahoo mail +.
At first I didn't know if the problem was with a change in Chrome or a change to yahoo mail, or possibly both so I did some testing.
- Normally I use Chrome and then load yahoo.com, and then go to yahoo mail, BUT
I can't get to any email text this way.
- It took me a while to do the testing but here's the solution I found that works for me:
- If I start with Microsoft Edge
- then load yahoo.com
- then go to yahoo mail
- Now my emails show AND I can now get and read my email's --- AND
as a bonus --- NO yahoo mail + add.
Now my rant ... First, I do NOT work for yahoo. Whoever those f/king idiots are who decided to
jump on the "+" bandwagon, (to increase company profit), and change something that worked (and was popular) into something that does NOT work should all be fired AND then shot AND then maybe burnt-at-the-stake AND then I'd say dump the bodies in the ocean, but not even sharks would touch the bodies so just dump the bodies over a a cliff somewhere. This include everyone from the exec's who thought this was a good idea and approved the changes to the programmers and the testers who were supposed to find the bugs in the program.
I've used yahoo for more years that I can remember but once I figure out what I want to use as a replacement I'll be quitting yahoo.
