Yahoo email
I am having problems with some Yahoo emails not getting thru. Not all, but some.
It might be my newish laptop. It is a Lenova. I got it because it was one I could get Windows 7 on it and not Windows 10. But when I go to MSN I get two screens. One MSN. One MSN by Lenova. I have learned the latter doesn't work very well and often ends up freezing the computer, so I usually X out of it at the start. Things seem to work better going thru Google to my Yahoo email.
I have Webroot and Malwarebytes.
So, anybody else having problems with Yahoo?

I have lots of problems with Yahoo, and now they've screwed up their messenger too. looking for something else. Windows 10 ain't that bad. I finally put all ours on 10. They work fine.

Re: Yahoo email
Over the years I have noticed Yahoo Mail may "blip out"
when they are retooling their system.
It seem to correct after a week, or so.
Nothing New Here, Move Along !

Re: Yahoo email
always have had issues with Yahoo. now that they have totally rendered Yahoo messenger useless I am totally avoiding all things Yahoo. deleting all things Yahoo. It is no wonder they were broken and had to sell themselves to Verizon, which if I read correctly is the only offer they had since they suck so much.

Re: Yahoo email
Moi, I think you were right on this one. I have bracketed the lost emails to a couple of days in July. It seems to have corrected since then. Now that you mentioned it, I do remember the same problem a couple of years ago which resolved itself just before I was ready to quit Yahoo.
I agree with you kristoff and baldwin. Just hate to give up an email address that I have had for probably two decades. I keep thinking some old friend might get in touch.

Re: Yahoo email
Yahoo is also throwing video at you in the inbox, spam folder, and trash now, once emptied. It seems that you cannot get to your mail in a timely manner due to all the video spam. I'm just about ready to give up mine, too, which I've had since 1997. Messenger is deplorable as well - all the features have been removed, and you can't even tell if anyone is online or not. Just a big mess best walked away from.

Re: Yahoo email
Which brings up a question. The old messenger was good for occassionally running across an interesting person. Is there anything similar now?
