  1. 3 separate times I have proven that I am not a robot - - now why don't you prove that you aren't

    three separate times within 3 minutes, you have asked me to prove that I an NOT a robot. Now it should be your turn. Why don't you prove that you aren't a stupid robot. I can only assume that you think that everyone rises at 7am and goes to bed at 10pm. I personally don't go to bed until approximately 3:30. NO I am not a robot.

  2. Email Forwarding

    I deleted a forward to another email address I have (Outlook.com). But the emails keep being forwarded to Outlook. I've deleted the forward, how do I get the forwarding to stop.

    To delete the auto-forwarding, make sure to go to mail.yahoo.com-Settings-More Settings-Mailboxes, select the account then remove the forward option.

  3. do not like account key log in

    I hate this account key log in. Takes me forever to get my phone and try to read the verification code. it is so little and the letters are smushed together. Just let me use a password like before.

  5. Yahoo should not keep me logged-in

    Yahoo keeps me logged into the site even though I've explicitly told it not to remember me. To not remember me, in my mind, means they won't keep me logged in and will prompt me again for my credentials when accessing any of their services via a NEW session. Yahoo has, to date, not amended this issue and it's become a real hassle for me because Yahoo thinks they're safe now. If I uncheck "Remember me", I expect Yahoo to store cookies but to also then require disabling this whole SSO and federation **** that utilizes tokens across sessions.

  7. spam

    It used to be that I could notify you about an email I thought you should check out. I think it was a subcategory of marking it as spam. E.g. Just got an email from mailer daemon saying they couldn't deliver a message. The problem is I never sent the msg AND I've never heard of the person it couldn't reach. I wanted to send this to you to see if my account has been hacked. I marked it as spam and it just disappeared. NOT what I had in mind happening. Fix it so we have easy access to…

    We recommend account key as a more secure form of verification but we recognize that it may not be convenient for everyone. Please note that you can disable account key and return to password sign in. Please see the steps to do so below:

    Manage Account Key from a web browser

    - Go to the Yahoo Account security page.
    - By “Yahoo Account Key,” click Manage.
    - Click the toggle to the right of any device you want to turn on or off.
    - Optionally, click Disable Account Key at the bottom of the screen to switch back to a password.

    Manage Account Key from a Yahoo mobile app

    - From your Account Key enabled app, tap the Menu icon Image of the side menu icon.
    - Tap the Account Key icon Image of the Account Key icon..
    - Tap Manage Account Key.
    - Tap the toggle to the right…

  11. Mail Restore request form does not work.

    With no live customer service available or even an e-mail address to reach out to, I erroneously tried one of the fake phone numbers listed online to try and solve the problem. :( I am trying to fill out a Mail Restore Request form and the YID doesn't match what I have signed in with... it says. My husband accidentally deleted messages from his phone (and also the server due to his phone settings).

  12. Some of my emails are not coming through, especially those from Asia. What is the problem???

    I have friends and a few subscription services mostly in China and Australia and the emails are not coming through to me. I have checked every folder, including spam, and nothing from them. Any idea what might be the problem?

    If you’re not getting emails from a specific sender, it may be because they are sending to the wrong address or they are getting an error message when sending to you. If this is the case, you will need to have them reach out to our Postmaster department to try and get it fixed. You can also double-check your Mail settings and Spam folder to make sure everything looks good there.

    Thank you!

  17. Streamline setting mail on iPhone

    Dear sir/miss,
    Please streamline the method with which you set-up your email account on the iphone. I spend 4 hours trying to figure out why it wasn't working properly! This is after checking all my server settings, because apparently even though there is the option to log in to a yahoo account on the iphone settings, the automatics login configuration doesn't work. So I had to find the required server settings and ports to login.
    After that it still wasn't working and then I remembered that you have some idiotic "app specific" password that needs to be generated and used!…
