    @YahooCare @yahoomail New Busi Mail web interface has two problems (1) Printing emails cuts off the right edges/full message doesn't print (2) The Inbox defaults to "Primary." I'd like it to default to "All" so I don't miss messages. + your "contact us" button don't send.

    @olo2mide @dozieohaeri @seunonigbinde Let me show you why Nigeria is hopeless simply because we are this dvmb. You went to a Yahoo Mail server, imputed a publicly available email address, went to forgot password and saw that a publicly available number is its backup number and boom- you came to a conclusion that a number and email is connected to a Twitter account, where does Twitter come in at all? I mean, where is the connection?

    Yahoo mail is down and trying to talk to someone on the phone when they ask for a code is impossible since i cannot get into my mail to get access to the code and they do not give the option to send the code to my phone

    @Flexycoll6 Hello Mr flexy. I can see that SCT do sometimes respond to your comments or request. Pls kindly help help us who signed up using Yahoo mail by letting the SCT to know that we are not receiving the otp and so we couldn't login. Pls don't just pretend as if everything is fine.

    @status_is_down DO NOT expect @YahooCare to help resolve ANY issue especially with your email!! These incompetent ******** will only re-route you to their ****** website where they’ll just repeat previous inefficient steps with ZERO resolution. What pieces of ****!! #YahooMail #YahooEmail

    I just followed the issue again, and no one has posted X revealing his email or phone num via 2FA. All I saw was Yahoo Mail.

    @MrNJ39 @yahoomail Agreed. This version is rubbish. The font is dreadful and is counter intuitive. The previous version was fine. Nothing wrong with it. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. It wasn’t. Please give us the old, good version back.

    @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

    @OldInternetFeel I still use Yahoo Mail, and it's become a slow, browser crashing slog to deal with. It's sluggish on my phone and even worse on the desktop. Problem is that I use my yahoo email for so many different things that it would be very difficult to switch all my email over.

    After forcing its storage down to 15 GB @Yahoo forced the new UI of yahoo mail on me! Enough is enough ... time to leave. 🤬

    @YahooCare Hi @YahooCare, on iPhone using Yahoo Mail v26.13.0: folders (Inbox, Sent, Drafts, Spam, Trash, Archive) are inaccessible, and the new folder switcher (Inbox icon with ↑↓ bottom-left) is unresponsive. Please fix or add a classic folder view. Cheers 🙏🇦🇺

    @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 🚨

    @yahoomail I had to delete my emails due to a capacity issue. Tried to log on, forgot password, don’t have access to my ‘recovery’ email because you closed it and after speaking to one of your unhelpful members of staff on the phone my email now doesn’t exist! 😡 please help!!🆘

    @Pokemallu @pokemondealsuk I’m the same as you, actively use Yahoo mail and signed up multiple times and followed the advice re not receiving them. Maybe a Yahoo issue. FYI if you go to your contacts on either the app or webpage you can just add the email address.
