Suddenly can't get new Yahoo! mail on my mac.

Not that this helps, but enabling connection activity logging in Connection Doctor and then examining the log file showed:

Everything looks fine until the last command. Mail tried to fetch the messages in my Inbox and got a "FETCH Server error" in response. The strange thing is that it seemed to work fine on all other folders (Sent Messages, Drafts, etc.).

I'm having the exact same problem! It happened about a week ago. All of a sudden, I wasn't able to get new mail on my yahoo account. My other exchange account worked just fine. I let it go for a few days (all the while, I was still able to get mail on my iOS devices and in the browser version) hoping it'd start working, but it didn't. So I deleted the account and tried to readd it. Nothing. For a while, it wouldn't even show up in my mail app! Finally, after deleting and readding a few times, it showed up in my mail app, but I can't get new mail! The option isn't even available to be clicked on!

Any help would be appreciated!

I have the same problem on Mac but also on my iPad. Only with Yahoo mail.

Same here, yahoo mail stopped showing up 2 days ago. Luckily I have my iPhone and I can still send messages, but it sure is annoying. Don't really know what to do.

I'm having the exact same problems. I can receive all email on my iPad and Blackberry, but not my MacBook Pro. I can send emails, but not receive. This issue started last night or today .

Same problem as everyone else, seems like other common email providers (AOL, Gmail) are working, but I stopped receiving Yahoo! emails on my Macbook Air last night. I still receive emails on my phone, and have tried restarting the app, checking Connection Doctor, Rebuilding Inbox, etc., but nothing seems to be working.

Hey guys, I just started receiving my Yahoo emails again on my MacBook Pro. Hopefully, it'll stay that way!

I just logged on to check after your post RAC and mine is working again also. Maybe they found/fixed whatever the issue was.

Just started working here.

I think they must have fixed something, because mine suddenly started working too (from what I can tell). I was able to rebuild my mailbox and get new mail suddenly. Since I had deleted my account previously, I'm not sure how long it'll take to get all of it back, so hopefully it all comes in with at least all of my flags (even if it's not separately color coded).

HI all,

I checked Mail in my Macbook Pro just now and my inbox is working again! I don't know what the problem was but glad things are now okay....🙂

Same here. At the moment it is receiving all the inbox mail. I hope there are no more problems¡¡¡

Yes. I'm receiving Yahoo! emails like it used to before. Thanks, whoever it is, that fixed the bug. Appreciated! 🙂

With the Yahoo tech support guidance, I lost all of my emails on the Mac. Frustrated and not able to talk with any Yahoo tech support supervisors, because "they were all busy - this is a known problem on the Mac". I deleted the mail account & recreated it. So far, everything is working again - new emails that were previously this morning not downloading to the Mac are now coming in. It is taking a while for the folders to sync (I'm using IMAP), but so far things look good. No amount of other tweaking was effective.
