When I delete Yahoo email on my iPhone, it no longer deletes the email from the web based email

Recently, approximately mid-June 2023, when I delete email from my Yahoo email on my iPhone, it stay in the "Inbox" on the web based version. I have made no changes to my settings on either my iPhone or my web based email, so I assume it is something in an update. My current settings on my iPhone are set to the following in "Advanced:"


On the server: "Trash" is selected.

Under "Move discarded messages into:"

"Deleted Mailbox" is selected


Again, I have made no changes to the settings anywhere and this recently started being an issue.


iPhone 13 Pro

An update. I deleted my account and reinstalled. It worked as it did before from 6 July until this morning, 9 July. Now the issue has returned. When I delete Yahoo email on my iPhone, it no longer deletes the email on the web version on my computer.


I'd be grateful to hear from someone at Apple about this instead of just having someone in the "community" tell me to reach out to Yahoo.

Your issue is with the yahoo account. There is no Apple here in these user to user technical forum. Again reach out to yahoo support and ask them why their mail account doesn't work the way you want it to.
