  1. Yahoo mail is very buggy. It keeps jumping to huge letters/screen then back to normal. Does this everyday, many times a day.

    Every day yahoo mail screen behaves erratic. Goes from normal screen to really big letters/screen and then back to normal again. It's unresponsive while this jumping of screen goes on. Jumps to huge letters and back to normal and does this multiple times a day. Hate it.

    We would suggest asking the recipient to check his spam filters and also mark the emails from you as “Not Spam”

    If legit emails are ending up in the Spam folder, the best thing to do is to mark them as Not Spam. This will help them go to the Inbox in the future. Adding the sender to your Address Book will help, also.

    If you’re accessing Yahoo Mail through the desktop web site or the app, then IMAP is not being used. If you’re using a non-Yahoo Mail app like Outlook or Thunderbird, then the IMAP settings should look like these:

  5. the timestamp on messages being sent is off by 5 hours !! Fix this or how can i change??

    Hi there,

    This may be an issue with your timezone settings. You can manually set your timezone by:

    - Click on the mail settings icon in the upper right
    - Select more settings
    - Select Viewing Email
    - Below Closest city and timezone enter the city
    - Follow the remaining steps from there.

    Thank you!

  6. email crashing on iPhone 7 thru iPhone Accounts feature and not loading thru the Yahoo app

    As of Tuesday, 22-Jan-2019, email on my iPhone 7 and my husband's is constantly crashing and/or emails do not load. We showed the issue to Verizon, they ordered replacement iPhone 7s and we still have the same issue with the new phones. We've also deleted all of the email accounts thru settings and added them back in. The Apple store pointed out an, "Allow apps that use less secure sign in" option which we selected, which didn't help. We also tried using the Yahoo app on our iPhones and the loading wheel spins on a few of the accounts and…

  9. mail not sorted newest first altho selected

    Although I choose the sort newest first, Today is not at the top of the list but way down after earlier emails - can't you all do something simple like a sort on date correctly?

  11. replace email address for reset

    Hi!
    I can add an extra e-mail address for e.g. reseting, but i cannot delete or change the current one. My ISP is discontinuing their e-mail service at the beginning of next year, so my current e-mail address here for reset, will not function after that. I would therefore rather replace this address instead of just adding another one. This delete function exists for the telefon/mobil data, why not for e-mail?

  12. My sent emails is removing/deleting much of the content in the email? When I send an email - (it only shows 1st & last line nothing else)

    My sent emails is removing/deleting much of the content in the email? When I send an email - (it only shows 1st & last line nothing else - the middle sentences are deleted/gone). I need to review the content and sometimes use it to send more emails. This makes it much harder to use Yahoo emails.

    The Spam filter takes precedence over filters set up on the account, including blocked addresses. This means that if something is deemed as Spam, it will go the Spam folder regardless of what’s set up on the account.

    Keep in mind that you can empty the entire Spam folder at once using the Trashcan icon next to it.

    Thank you!

  15. reply to email blocked by pop up of senders info

    when you put the cursor on the reply button for email, it opens a pop up showing the sender. that's ok, until it doesn't go away and hides the box where you type the reply making you stop typing and then close that box so you can see what your are typing. FIX THIS ******....it shows me that NONE of you that work at Yahoo use Yahoo mail, as this is so aggravating I can't believe you have not fixed it yet.

  16. SPAM filter is broke and admin keeps sending irrelevant answers and closing comments

    When emails from several sendors that have been received for multiple years into inbox suddenly start going to SPAM, something is broke. Why do you keep trying to blame it on something that is not relevant to current situation? why do you close comments so we can not respond to your erroneous solutions?

    It’s best to mark these emails as Not Spam to keep them from going into the Spam folder in the future. If this issue persists, reach out to us through our Help pages:

  18. yahoo mail in sweedish???

    Hi have had my Yahoo email for about 30 years. I have always lived in the GTA (greater Toronto area) and currently living in Mississauga (Peel Region).

    Can someone tell me why Yahoo things I am situated in Sweeden? I am getting strange letters from a foreign language, I am assuming it is Sweeden.

    Can you please correct this. I really have no intention of learning Sweedish just to use my Yahoo email account.

    Thank you very much in advance.

  19. Filter is not working

    Filters are not working
    I have setup some filters but they are not working. I have worked with filters in Yahoo Mail since the 90's, and never had any problems with them until now. I wish I can post some screenshots here so you can verified that my filters setup are already correct. I filtered up emails using their sender and sent them to specified folders, but they keep arriving at my inbox.

    Keep in mind that filters work on a priority basis, with filters higher on the list taking precedence over those below them. Also, emails filtered as Spam will not be filtered, but will go to the Spam folder instead. You can find out more about filters in this article:
