    Yahoo has been having email issues for days now. It's supposedly "fixed" but some people are still having issues. Google "yahoo email outage" for tons of info. I don't think it only affects iOS device either. I personally have not had any issues with my Yahoo email either on my PC or my iOS devices.

     

    Just one of many stories:

    I have two yahoo accounts and I randomly have them mess up on my computer, both at work and home. ANd it's all on Yahoo's end. It's supposed to delete and go to the next mail, but sometimes it randomly puts me back in the main mail list. Sometimes it won't delete at all, other times I can't access it....just exceedingly inconsistent.

     

    IMHO, they're trying to bring so much into it to make it a communication hub, but it's just interfacing with too much and can't keep up.

     

    The long and short, if your yahoo mail is malfunctioning, chances are it's on their end so users just have to wait it out or find work arounds....such as using the yahoo app or accessing the webmail via safari if the mail app isn't working.
