  • YahooCare Yahoo Customer Care (@YahooCare) reported

    @biasmarta I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Yahoo Mail maintains the content of your mailbox as long as it remains active. Sign in to your mailbox at least once every 12 months to keep it active. Content deleted from an inactive mailbox can't be restored.

    @sauloefo I'm sorry you're having this difficult experience. Yahoo Mail maintains the content of your mailbox as long as it remains active. Sign in to your mailbox at least once every 12 months to keep it active. Content deleted from an inactive mailbox can't be restored.

    @voxmediainc Tried to sign up for your Polygon website to give an opinion on one of your author's review of a movie. Kept getting error message that you don't support my email provider; in other words, you don't support Yahoo Mail. What's with that as it's the only email I have?

  • mfunkatron Michael Mason (@mfunkatron) reported

    @yahoomail it’s impossible to log into my email when a verification code is sent to the email I’m trying to log into. Clicking on “sign in a different way” leads to an error message.

  • EdwardMcKernan Edward McKernan (@EdwardMcKernan) reported

    @PatrickMoorhead My 2019 MAC Book Pro can spin the intel processor into overdrive during a YouTube video and on yahoo mail or yahoo finance. Very hot to n the bottom. Somehow the hardware wasn’t able to clock down the processor. I would assume new M1X is more controllable

  • robertlipe robertlipe (@robertlipe) reported

    @peppertronics @SignalSkew From a technology view, it was the use of Javascript-rich clientside apps that held state and communicated to servers via AJAX. Before that, it was a submit action on a form to modify server state and send a full refreshed page. Contrast Yahoo mail or PHPMySQL (still hangin' on)
