    @EWFA_ And who can forget the 6mb storage given by Yahoo mail in those days. We had to delete older mails and mails with attachment, so that new 📨 could be delivered. Web pages with graphic were so slow to load that it felt eternity. Buffering was the norm those days.

  • RezaieLatif Rezaie Latif (@RezaieLatif) reported

    @ActionsOnGoogle @yahoomail Greetings! I am in trouble with logging to my yahoo email account, even the password is correct but I couldn't login to my account because it asks to verify yourself that it is you, but unfortunately, I do not have access to that recovery email to verify it. Please help me.
