Thread: Yahoo

Does anyone else use yahoo for web mail?
If so have you been having problems signing in. Like you sign-in and it comes back asking you to sign-in, you sign-in and it comes back asking you to sign-in, you sign-in and it comes back asking you to sign-in, you sign-in and it comes back asking you to sign-in.... and so on ad infinitum?

I've now switched my e-mail associated with the forum to Googlemail.

I have a yahoo mail account but only use it rarely. I much preefer lycos as they allow much larger attachments

Never have had much trouble with my Yahoo, I much prefer it to my Hotmail accounts. Today Yahoo Mail has been timing out, too busy I reckon with that C word coming up

I've noticed the sign in problems with Yahoo's mail too.

What an annoying system!

Here's the solution:

How do I close my Yahoo! account?

The problem is, Greg, that requires you to "sign-in" first and that is what I cannot do!....

LOL that's Yahoo's trick... It's an impossible way out!

Have you tried with a different browser? Try using Google's Chrome browser.

It could be that you are having difficulty signing in due to cookie settings on your browser.

I already am using Google Chrome - I gave up on the pathetic IE ages ago. Will try clearing the cookies - maybe the crumbs have got in the keyboard, and see if that helps.

I tried logging on to my yahoo account and got in without any problems. That was using firefox 3.5.5 browser

We have had problems with hotmail today, e-mails not getting through. Maybe the internet highway is blocked, wrong type of snow, leaves on the line etc etc.
