  1. Can I change my default email address?

    when I started yahoo, I used one address for the default address, but I use another yahoo address as my primary address for mail. I know I can change the reply to address on the default, but all messages from the default show the default address as the from address - this confuses people. Now I end up having both my default and my preferred addresses listed - and am needing to deal with duplicates of everything. So - can I change my original default address to my preferred address.

    The quickest way to do so from the web is to go to your inbox/folder, scroll a long way down, and then use the keystroke Ctrl+A to select all visible emails (or the top checkbox in the Yahoo Mail app). The further you scroll down, the more you can select at once.

    You can delete a large number of emails at once this way, and I find it works best in groups of 1-2k. The maximum amount you can delete at once is 10k. Keep in mind that larger groups may take more time to delete. You can still empty the Spam and Trash folders all at once by clicking on the Trashcan icon that appears next to their names when hovering over them with the cursor. New Mail also allows you to empty entire folders at once using the arrow to the right of the folder; just click on…

    If you’re missing emails, you can try doing a a Search in your mailbox or an email restore. Be sure to check the Trash folder for any restored emails.

    The best you can do is to report those messages as spam. (https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN3402.html) Depending on the number of similar reports, our Anti-Spam filter may take some time to react and start actively blocking them from reaching you.

    In the meantime, you can either create filters (https://help.yahoo.com/kb/mail-for-desktop/SLN15994.html?impressions=true) or block those email addresses:

  7. Password problem.

    Every time I try to sign in, it makes me change my password. I have to go to "forgot my password" and wait for a text with a code. Irritating! Too many hoops to jump through to get help.

  12. verification

    If I verify my ID on a computer why do I have to do it again the next time I sign on there? I got a new computer at home. I usually check mail on my phone but sometimes do it from the computer when I need to share files over email. Every time I try to log on, I have to get a verification code sent. WHY? This is annoying. I have been a yahoo mail user for over 20 years. STOP ITALREADY. Your system should be intelligent enough to associate my computer ID with my account and let…

  16. Deliver emails ignoring domains

    When you login to yahoo, it only checks the email id and not the domain. So that means one email id is unique across all domains. Assuming this is true, suppose one person has email id example@yahoo.co.XX, but if someone by mistake sends the email to example@yahoo.com, should it not still get delivered to the person as long as the mistaken domain exists? This does not happen today and the email delivery fails.

    This is specially applicable as a lot of people here have similar (example@yahoo.co.XX) email ids but many times it happens that someone send…

    You’re correct in that all Yahoo IDs are unique. being as such, no two IDs can exist with the same username as different domains. So, if an email is sent to an address at .com, but in actuality it’s .co.uk, then it will bounce back to the sender as undeliverable.

  17. cannot view full headers/raw message on new desktop mail ; cannot FORWARD (without OPENing virus email)

    Yahoo1009_fff The function [View Raw Image] Does NOT work. Never, Never, Never OPEN a bad/malicious/virus email because you will regret the disastrous consequences. ATT needs to allow (ALL) emails to be FORWARDED, WITHOUT having to OPEN the bad email, to perform the FORWARD function. I need ability to (1) access the Entire RAW email [Header, with ALL the IP address info, & Body], (2) Copy the Entire RAW email, (3) activate the FORWARD function, (4) paste COPY of Entire RAW email, at top of the temporary area. (5) enter the [Send-To] address, (6) execute Send. EX: bad email is Extortion…

    If you use the checkbox next to the email in question, you can then select “View Raw Message” from the options (3 dots) menu without having to open the email.

  19. Spam Mails in INBOX

    Sometimes when a flood of junk email comes into a mailbox suddenly, it could mean that a hacker is trying to compromise the account. In this Spam distraction tactic, they send tons of junk to the mailbox in order to distract the user while they try to use the account for their purposes.

    For these situations, I would reset the password and make sure the account is secure. Mark the Spam emails as such as much as possible as well. Another option, if needed, is to  deactivate the account temporarily (for 1 or 2 days) and then reactivate it to see if that will help stop the spam. Emails sent to a deactivated account will typically bounce back to the sender.

  20. Someone just decided to change my mail. So why ask for my opinion now? You changed it already without my permission.

    Change it back. I did not ask for this. Looks like I will have to use my other emails more and change my homepage.
