Yahoo Mail Issues

I am having an issue my Yahoo mail account. Earlier today I stopped receiving mail via OSx. I continued receiving mail as normal on my iPhone. I delete the account from OSx and re-added. When I did it populated all the folders except my "Inbox". It shows no messages in the inbox and is still not receiving new messages. It sends messages fine. Can anyone give me any suggestions?

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)

I'm having the same issue for about 3 days now. It's happening across all 3 of my yahoo accounts and all 4 apple devices: Mac Book Pro Retina, iPad (4th Gen), iPhone 5 & iPhone 6. I've tried rebooting the systems, changing passwords, deleting, & re-adding accounts. None of them are working. For the accounts I've deleted & re-added the accounts show up with no mail. But they claim to have just updated.


One of my accounts updated over night last night on my phone but not on any of the other devices or accounts.


Running the Mail connection doctor yields all green.


I've not having any issues pulling mail from my windows or Ubuntu systems.


Perhaps a certificate may have expired somewhere?

I am in the same boat. I have a Yahoo Premium email account. My non premium account was not effected. But on my MacBook Pro and iPhone 6 my premium accounts stopped receiving mail yesterday.


I deleted the account on both my iPhone and MacBook Pro with Yosemite. The phone restored the account and it is operating normal. The MacBook did the old empty email account. My sent file dates back to December and that's it. Still shows my drafts, but none of the inbox messages have populated. Ive powered down, nothing.


Head scratching. At least my phone is working, so I'm not totally sunk.

Does anyone know how to contact Yahoo about this?


I have had same issue (Yosemite Mac Mail fails to receive new e-mail from Yahoo Mail that is a Premium account). It was "out" earlier this week, then came back for a few hours, and now has been not working for a day and a half. e-Mail works fine on my same Mac using the Postbox application instead of Mac Mail so seems to be unique to the Mac Mail + Yahoo Mail combination. Also works fine via Web and on iPhone.


Only thread I have found about this issue is here and wonder if there is another place with info that I can also look at?
