  3. Cannot access contacts in mail

    I don't know how Yahoo can improve their mail, but I'm going to Gmail to fix yahoo's errors. Sad when you can't access contacts.

  8. Unable to receive email from my alias account

    When I send an email from my main account to my alias account to test I get the following error email:

    "554: delivery error: dd This user doesn't have a yahoo.com account"

    I ensured that the alias address I used is the correct one.

  9. For some odd reason, Yahoo keeps on asking to sign in again, then says the password is incorrect and does it about everyweek.

    For some odd reason, Yahoo keeps on asking to sign in again, then says the password is incorrect and does it about every week. I use the option to send a key via text and it lets me, but I have to do this about every week.

  10. My emails back to May 2017 have all disappeared. I have none of my current emails left. They are all just gone. And no, I did not delete.

    My emails back to May 2017 have all disappeared. I have none of my current emails left. They are all just gone. And no, I did not delete them. Why were they deleted and how do I get them back? The most recent email I have now is May 2017, and I really need my most recent ones.

  13. Viruses?

    I typically leave Yahoo Mail open in a tab on my computer. Nearly every day, when I go to check it after it's been open a while, the tab has changed to some kind of warning screen saying I need to scan my computer. This is clearly a trap to download a virus or something, so I close the tab. No other tabs are affected, and my computer does not have a virus. This is only with Yahoo Mail. I use Windows 7 and a Google Chrome browser.

  17. email filters

    1. The present method does not allow me to go to the bottom of my folder list. I have a very long list of email folders. When I click on pulling down the page, I lose the filter folder list & when I again go to pull down the list I still can't get to the bottom of the list & the page is back up instead of staying down where I pulled it in the attempt to see the bottom of the list. This needs to be fixed ASAP!

    2. I agree with everyone complaining about the difficulty in creating a…

  19. Emails being deleted/removed

    I am finding that my emails are being deleted/disappear when I have them in my inbox, marked as "unread". I have had to contact a number of people to resend information as I can't recover the emails. This is beyond frustrating as some of the emails are interview schedules.

  20. personal portfolios

    I wish I did have an idea, but after over a decade of using the 'portfoio manager' I can no longer even find it. Backup - I can still use Moningstar. The software dept. should stop the fiddling with the system to kep busy. Just let it be for awhile.
