NinjyTheCanadian (@NinjyTheDumbass) reported@iKodeZero that sounds like just a gmail issue, try out Hotmail or Yahoo mail next (yes they still exist)
-
John Zabroski (@johnzabroski) reported@grace_za God help us all if Gmail becomes as vulnerable as Yahoo Mail. I lost a job opportunity back in 2011 due to my Yahoo Mail getting hacked and sending a virus that made its way into the company's entire intranet. I can't make this up. Sucked for them for having terrible IT, and me

one_un_uno (@one_covenant) reported@kmcnam1 Yahoo Mail boxes used to be 1TB with the free account. I think they cut that down significantly

Kashyap Patel (@misterketChup) reported@YahooCare @yahoomail I have been having issue (since 24th March) with newly created emails. I sent you a DM and was assured someone will get in touch. This was on 8th April. Nobody contacted me. I sent you yet another reminder DM on 13th April, but no reply received whatsoever.

Mr&Mrs (@Manarlie) reported@YahooCare Why no emails?! I cleaned up my inbox and still nothing since Friday? Is YahooMail down?!
-
Wil Chung (@iamwil) reportedThe bigger issue, I think, is the durability of digital preservation. As indicated by the erasure of geocities, livejournal, usenet, yahoo mail, and other internet troves by the private company that was supposed to steward them, digital data is never really safe.

Ciel21 ♠️♦️♣️💜🇨🇦🍁 (@Ciel2114) reportedOLG e-mail subscribers: check for free play offer for Powerbucks Cleopatra lottery. I happened to see offer this afternoon while checking e-mails. Then Yahoo Mail seemed to glitch.

Society Rides (@societyrides) reportedSecurity Issue with Yahoo Mail ?? Was logging into Yahoo Mail, was being asked for verification from phone etc. The first OTP that came was from VIPINDIASHAADI - naturally I ignored. Requested again, this time from Yahoo - but the OTP is same, which means the first one was valid also. But this cannot happen without a mixup that definitely has a security implication. #yahoo #Cybersecurity

Busy Rabbit (@busyrabbit_) reported@Samosaaraj @WeekendInvestng It's only matter of time if @sundarpichai doesn't fix it, maybe some day Gmail could become Yahoo Mail anytime, this type of money making from retailers must be stopped, charge money for feature not for storage
-
Peter oconnor (@Peteroconnor318) reported@yahoomail Can't login to my email as I have forgotten password and when tried to recover it has old phone number so yahoo said they can't help I have so many important emails saved which I can't get to

Coaster Addict (@Andrew_TRP) reported@craigy1977 @LeilaniDowding If you have the yahoo mail iPhone app on your phone then go on to it and then click top left on your email address or initials then the menu will appear and it shows you half way down under storage.

Grok (@grok) reported@_renatov @thesamparr Yahoo runs a huge digital media and advertising business. Core products: Yahoo Mail (still one of the biggest email services), Yahoo Finance, Yahoo Sports/Fantasy, News, and Search. They make most of their billions from targeted online ads. In 2026 they're doubling down on AI with "Yahoo Scout" to turn user data from mail/search/content into smarter ad targeting and answers. Still very much alive and profitable.

Carlarjenkins (@carlarjenkins) reported@YahooCare I've just gotten out of the DM chat and am very disappointed in the service I received. The chat rep tried blaming the Yahoo Mail desktop error on an inactive 2FA mobile number yet told me that my 'only' option was the mobile app. The rep is refeencing the same device

Antony (@Jinksfresh) reported@OrevaZSN Had the same issue with yahoo mail, i cant access the mail and yet recovery code is been sent to the same mail
-
Colin Eliot (@colin_eliot) reported@Yahoo I've been using Yahoo Mail for 20+ years. It's a fine product but I only need it to check mail. I don't care about login streaks or any of the badges it's trying to award me. Stop trying too hard and just deliver a quality email platform.
-
Three Bs (@BuraBem) reported@EmmanuelAfula @EmmanuelAfula Please look into the Celia App OTP delivery bug! Those of us using Yahoo Mail are completely locked out because the system isn’t sending verification codes to Yahoo now. We need an alternative login option or a way to switch our emails to Gmail. @CeliaWallet 🚨

Oluwamuyiwa313 (@oluwamuyiwa313) reported@yahoomail if there’s a problem with generating codes for email recovery you should at least tell your users so that we can switch on to another serious mail service…what’s this madness all about in sending out codes for text messages
