Yahoo mail stopped pushing to Mail app

I have Yahoo Mail set to push on my iPhone and iPad. That worked up until it just stopped working early yesterday. I contacted Yahoo who said to delete the Yahoo account and add it back again. That didn't do anything And they haven't responded to my follow up.

I've since tried 3 different Yahoo accounts on three different iOS devices (iPhone and 2 iPads) and push mail in the iOS Mail app doesn't work for any of them. I can manually fetch Yahoo Mail, but push isn't working at all in the iOS Mail app. I've checked and it's enabled, it's simply not working.

I've switched to using the Yahoo Mail iOS app since push notifications are still working for that app, but I really want to use the native iOS mail app.

Is push Yahoo mail still working for anyone?

iPhone 5s, iOS 8.3, AT&T 32 GB

Same problem here. Noticed it a couple of days ago and tried all off the 'fixes' with no solution just like you. I have to manually open the iOS Mail app and pull down to refresh it to get my new emails to come through. Never had this problem before.

Same here. Just got this phome roughly a month and a half ago. As I'm sitting here it says "Last updated at 10:16 AM" yet it's 11:40 here on the East Coast and it's not pushing. Tried reboot, turning on and off, deleting/re-adding account, and no improvements. I'm forced to use the Yahoo mail app to check my mail. I sent a comment using the Feedback page for iPhone, so we'll see where that goes
