    @MultiMusesAcc But didn't you want to use one address for multiple accounts? So the Yahoo mail server thinks that all those addresses are different ones?

  • marketdoctor marketdoctor (@marketdoctor) reported

    @Elaina_Eiser I have this issue occasionally with Yahoo Mail. I can't tell you if you're crazy or not, but you're right about this one.

  • PsychoTey_art Tey🔞 (@PsychoTey_art) reported

    I do not receive a commissioner's emails for some reason? I hope Yahoo mail has a temporary bug/error. I've never had this happen before, no idea what could be the problem...

    @A_Abby_Abi There was a time Yahoo mail were closing down mails that have not been used for years. I believe most of them with have numbers and the Y2K thing.

    @Yahoo @yahoomail I don't know what you have done recently but all my mails like important mails like company emails and doctor emails are going to spam , I am spending more time looking for emails in my spam than in my inbox ! Fix it please

  • IrishTea1 IrishTea1 (@IrishTea1) reported

    Well this is news @Verizon, @YahooMail. I switched my phone two weeks ago. @YahooMail refuses me access to my email. Even though I answered all prompts correctly, NO GO! They want my driver's license number to access my account. That is not happening. Fix it!

  • Marathonpundit Marathon Pundit (@Marathonpundit) reported

    Working on moving over to gmail full time as Yahoo f*cked up my current account--they can't fix it. DM me for the gmail address if you need it. #Yahoo #gmail #yahoomail

  • KGBCowgirl KGBCowgirl (@KGBCowgirl) reported

    @yahoomail Y'all can't seem to un-**** the problem that's forced me to reset my password 27 times in the last calendar year, and now I can't even log into my mail inbox.

  • TepidButterASMR please clap (@TepidButterASMR) reported

    Just tried to login to yahoo mail for the first time in years and this website is a non working train wreck. Someone paid like 5 billion for this a year ago.

  • Herbert_Viana Herbert Viana (@Herbert_Viana) reported

    @YahooCare I'm having trouble receiving emails in my Yahoo Mail. Can you help me?

  • TravelinY TravelinYank 🇺🇦 (@TravelinY) reported

    @yahoomail You need to fix whatever you’ve done in the past few weeks to litter my inbox with spam and send my actual correspondence to spam, or I’m abandoning your service after decades.

  • _dolemite_ _dolemite_ (@_dolemite_) reported

    @idkred3 Or, your ip address changed and that has weirded their login system out. I get rate limited all the time in yahoo mail. Very annoying. When I use a vpn, the problem goes away, which is even more weird. The von should potentially cause a problem, not fix it!

  • David_Dierking David Dierking (@David_Dierking) reported

    @yahoomail Is Yahoo mail down? Every time I try to login, it just brings me back to the login screen again. This has been going on for more than a day. This is my main source of communication for work!

  • kitsunebi5 Füchsin (@kitsunebi5) reported

  • cubedvggts3 Cubed Cinder (@cubedvggts3) reported

    Yahoo Mail used to have a problem where old and long unused accounts would suddenly contact me with malware links (of course I didn't click them). Now it's happening on DeviantArt, only with links begging me to buy NFTs. Glad to know some things never change. *rolls eyes*

  • l8ytxn3 Nessa RamFig (@l8ytxn3) reported

    @YahooCare is yahoo mail not working?

  • TurnOnThePower Derek Williams (@TurnOnThePower) reported

    @NatashaCL7 Yes I think so. I don't use gmail for that and other reasons. I've always used yahoo mail, and never had any problems with it.

  • Ayokunnu_ Numero Uno (@Ayokunnu_) reported

    @YahooCare It looked like a transient issue in @yahoomail and/or a #PassingCloud. Things are looking fine now.
