  • ckft82 TeaCup (@ckft82) reported

    @yahoomail The weirdest thing happened. I copied the email I wrote, that was sent back to me, to send to a different email address. When I pasted it, it showed a layer on top of what I copied and pasted. The layer was a previously view email. It's probably a glitch.

  • AugustaKlumpke Augusta Déjerine-Klumpke (@AugustaKlumpke) reported

    @SamGuichelaar Move to Gmail or Outlook. I am not being flippant. After trying for years to fix yahoo mail I realised that the best thing to do was to move over to gmail. Spam detection is more of a server side issue, you can’t truly fix it yourself.

  • The_S_Express Selena (@The_S_Express) reported

    @YahooCare An ongoing Yahoo Mail issue is my account acts out of sync between an app and the web. Yesterday, e.g., as often done, I saved a file there from my 📱 to download on a 💻 but had to wait ≈ 13 minutes before it appeared in the latter's Drafts. Any explanation/solution?
