    The 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.

    @YahooCare I need urgent help with a compromised Yahoo Mail account. The attacker removed my recovery phone/email, so SignIn Helper is blocked. This is affecting recovery of other accounts too. Can you please advise on a safe escalation path? I won’t post private details publicly

    @Masterji_UPWale The problem with Yahoo Mail and Gmail is we don't save our images on Yahoo drive we only did on Google drive which where you email reside as well

    @yahoomail @MrNJ39 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.

    @DowndetectorUK Desktop mail + mobile app on 2 devices taking way too long to connect and load mails. File folders also slow (spinning circle). Just a week or so since the last major issue with v26.13.0 app for iOS as well (fixed with .1 update). Pls advise @YahooCare @yahoomail

    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

    @yahoomail: Why do I delete emails, and then more emails magically appear that weren't there before? This has been a very annoying issue, and it risks overlooking important emails!

    @yahoomail @vick_urban Hello, I'm having the same problem. For a month now, my phone got wet and was completely destroyed. I bought a new phone, and since then, when I try to connect, it tells me they've sent a notification to my old phone, which is no longer usable. What's the solution?

    @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.

    FOR YEARS I'VE RELIED ON @yahoomail FOR ALL MY EMAIL NEEDS, BUT ITS RELIABILITY HAS FALLEN IN THE PROVERBIAL SHITTER! I CAN'T REMEMBER HOW MANY PASSWORDS, PASSCODES AND TEXT VERIFICATIONS FOLLOWED BY CONFIRMATIONS ON BACKUP EMAIL ACCOUNTS ARE REQUIRED NOW BUT I GET ALL THE CODES, AND IT ALWAYS TAKES A ****, I THINK, IT'S AT THE 75TH PASSWORD LEVEL. HELL I CANNOT KEEP UP WITH THEM NOW. NOW I HAVE TO BLOW A DAY TRYING TO FIND SOMEBODY THAT SPEAKS ENGLISH SO I CAN FIGURE OUT WTF IS GOING ON. THE IPHONE APP NO LONGER WORKS, AND I CANNOT LOGIN VIA THE DESKTOP NOW. THIS ABSOLUTELY SUCKS!

    @Masterji_UPWale @yahoomail Deleted my inbox due to inactivity. I had dozens of important mail there. And there wasn't too much time since my last login. But they decided I'm a freerider user.

    I use all of them expect for iCloud mail. But if I had to go narrowing it down to only one to choose from, I'd say I would either pick out Gmail or Yahoo mail
