Verizon Yahoo mail

Up until yesterday I had no problems collecting and sending my mail
from my Yahoo Verizon mail account. I know it's been answered be for
but I'm still having no luck. I'm missing something. Could some one post the setup directions again?

Friday night I started having trouble with my Verizon email, after 40 minutes with tech support I had some luck accessing it. Monday morning I was using my mail and it just went out completely. I called tech support and the woman explained that that my browser was out of date. I asked which browser (I use Safari, Firefox, Opera and IE) was suddenly out of date and on which computer (I had the same problem on four of my computers at the same time). She said I had to install Google Chrome (which I hate) and we could still not access ANY Verizon web site. After she spent the next hour (the total time of the call was 118 minutes) controlling my computer she said she would send the case to the next level. I was able to go next door and log on using his Time Warner connection to check my mail. After doing this twice, my password no longer worked and I was locked out again! I called Verizon back and they said that email tech services was working on my case and had probably changed my password (what!!!???) so they could work on it. I was told they would contact me within twenty four hours (still no word). Finally it started working late in the afternoon. In less than a dozen hours I had been sent my current bill, you know that they are going to make certain THAT email gets through. Hey Verizon, just man up and say that your having problems with your server instead of keeping us on the line for a total of over three hours.

Verizon yahoo mail - use POP3 to download Sent Items?

Hi,
I am using Verizon Yahoo Mail. I'd like to setup a POP3 account in Microsoft Outlook 2010 to download all of my messages onto my hard drive. I managed to get to the point where I am able to retrieve all of the messages in my Inbox, but if possible, I would also like to retrieve the messages that are in my Sent Items folder as well. Can anyone tell me how I can do this.
Thanks in advance,
Paul

Verizon Yahoo utilizes the Yahoo front end for webmail, etc. Usually the problem that generates these errors codes is temporary and will resolve itself if you logout and log back in or simply try again in a couple of hours. If the problem happens everytime it will need to be investigated further.

Re: Email Password - Verizon Yahoo Mail ( new version)

I can't change the password in any Verizon email accounts I have. I never changed passwords in past
3 years. I am using the new version of Verizon Yahoo Mail. When I select the Account option within
Verizon Yahoo Mail, it takes me to the Verizon Member Center, and wants to change the Master Account
password for all my Verizon Services.
Are there any known problems with chanqing email account passwords in the new version of
Verizon Yahoo Mail ?
Can I change back to an older version of Verizon Yahoo Mail ?
The Yahoo Help System says I can't chnsage back to a previous version of Yahoo Mail, but I wonder
if that is just for Yahoo Email and not Verizon Yahoo Mail.

There have not been any troubles that I have heard of. It could be a browser problem. Try either using a different browser or running your Internet Explorer in compatibility mode. Please go into Internet Explorers "Tools" menu and click to turn on "compatibility view". It should allow you to sort after doing that. If you do not wish to enable compatibility view every time you want to sort, Go into compatibility view settings and add the site www.verizon.com to the list.

Verizon/Yahoo Mail Problems

I've looked everywhere for a similar problem to what I am experiencing, but can't find anyone who seems to be having the same thing going on. For more than a year, my family has used Verizon yahoo mail without any problems on the Apple Mail application. Nothing has changed recently, and the preferences settings have been:
POP Account
Email: [email protected]
Incoming Server: incoming.yahoo.verizon.net
Outgoing server: outgoing.yahoo.verizon.net
Username: [email protected]
Correct password
Outgoing mail server (SMTP: outgoing.yahoo.verizon.net
These worked for more than a year on two separate accounts run on two separate Apple computers, until a month ago something just stopped and now we can no longer send a receive mail on these servers through apple mail. We can access the accounts on Yahoo and Verizon online, but not in Mail itself. I get the message "Enter password for Account 'Verizon.' The POP server incoming.yahoo.verizon.net rejected the passowrd for user '[email protected]' Please re-enter your password, or cancel." When the password is entered, the same message pops right back up over and over again, even though the password is right. This is happening with TWO accounts on TWO computers, and absolutely nothing is changed, not even a software update. I've been on the phone with verizon for hours, and they insist this is an Apple problem, since the server works fine off the yahoo website. I've tried deleting the account, setting it up again, using incoming.verizon.net instead of incoming.yahoo.verizon.net . . . Does anyone know what is going on, or has seen this before? It's getting really inconvenient to have these accounts offline when nothing has happened.

Okay, I was finally able to get in touch with someone at Verizon who knew what is going on. I guessed that something had happened at Verizon or Yahoo between when this was working and when it wasn't, and I was right. Apparently, Yahoo cancelled its POP service as a portal partner with Verizon, making it impossible to people to access mail on outside POP accounts such as Outlook or Apple Mail. They said they sent out an email warning people this would happen, but I know we didn't get it. The rep explained that in order to access mail on outside applications, you have to switch to Windows Live as a portal partner (whether or not you have Mac, it still works). All you have to do on Mail is switch to incoming.verizon.net (deleting the yahoo). Use ports 110 and 25 (the defaults) instead of 110 and 587. If using a Mac, set up Windows Live by visiting http://www.verizon.net/getlivenow Then enter the primary account email address and password. It will want to download software (which won't work on a Mac), so choose custom installation and uncheck all downloads. All accounts linked to the primary will switch in about an hour. There is one caveat: all of your email on your verizon yahoo server will be deleted and WILL NOT TRANSFER OVER. Make sure to save all important emails to your computer before making the switch. To access email online, you just use Verizon webmail instead of Verizon/Yahoo mail off of the yahoo site. Hope that helps anyone with this problem!

Losing inbox emails in verizon yahoo mail

periodically the inbox clears except for the last 15 to 20 inputs. why ? how can i stop the mail from being removed

If you're using outlook to view your email and something else to view them, make sure that you have "keep a copy of this email on the server". I know when you use Outlook, delete from server after 14 days is automatically checked off.

I am using the latest version of Mozilla Firefox for 64 bit Windows 7 in Verizon Yahoo Mail. My problem is that when I click on an email and scroll through it to read it the whole screen below the tool bars scrolls together. This is wrong.

I am using a Beta version of Firefox.

You can modify the pref keyword.URL on the about:config page to use Google's "I'm Feeling Lucky" or Google's "Browse By Name".
* Google "I'm Feeling Lucky": http://www.google.com/search?btnI=I%27m+Feeling+Lucky&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=

Firefox periodically shows "server not found" message for Verizon/Yahoo email. Often self corrects in 5 to 10 minutes ?

System is Windows VISTA. While on Verizon/Yahoo mail Firefox will lose the connection and shoe a "server not found" message. Explorer will connect with no problem to the email server. The problem self corrects with in 5 or 10 minutes but this may happen 5 or 6 time in a day.
Is this a Firefox problem with proxy access. Settings appear to be the same.

i forgot to mention , that when i striped this machine back down to 10.3.7 and before i re built i did do a hardware check with the original install Disks [3] and every thing came back clean.
the weird ness with the colors on window, if i pass a app like text edit over the area , the color will not cover the app but stay in the background.
when i first saw this color thing i had the preference pane out and was moving it around on screen and the colors were bleeding off of the preference pane onto the screen.
if you have any idea as to what is going on here let me know.
thank you

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

Switching back from Verizon Yahoo email to Verizon email - folders

Can anyone tell me if we make the switch back from the Verizon Yahoo mail to the old Verizon email will our folders be preserved? If not, is there a way to make sure our saved items move over? I was thinking moving everything back to the inbox may work but I don't want to mess it up because there are some things that I can't lose.
Thanks!

No, when you switch from Verizon/Yahoo to plain Verizon, your emails and contacts will be lost.

Strange delays in receiving Verizon-Yahoo emails

This is very weird. I receive emails to my Windows Mail account fine and to my Verizon Wireless email program fine.
However, when I send emails through Windows Mail or from my Verizon wireless using my Verizon email accounts (partnered with Yahoo) there are usually long delays off and and on, up to 6 hours. Tech Support has escalated the trouble ticket to Yahoo external services, but this has been going on for almost a week. They wanted to say it was in my Windows Mail program, but that would not explain the same problem in my WIreless account.
The only way I have no problems sending emails is by sending them through the Verizon Yahoo web page.
Does anyone have an understanding of this weird technical problem, since Verizon shows no server problems anywhere affecting my service area?
Thanks!

I did three screen shares with Verizon Tech Support and they insisted I contact Microsoft. On Thursday they told me they heard from Yahoo External Team that there was a problem but it had been fixed((!!). I thought on Friday morning it had been fixed,

I have two email accounts under my main umbrella Vz account. We use Outlook 2007 on one computer to download and send email for one of the accounts and Outlook 2003 on another computer to do the same for the other account. Both have been experiencing outgoing email delays, typically from 2 hours to (now) four days. I called tech support on 11/3 and again on 11/4. I was told, after much discussion both times, that it was the Outlook software. I strongly contended it "couldn't be." They gave me some things to do, like remove mail from the server Inbox (easily done), call Microsoft (Hah!), and re-install Outlook (huge pain). Finally, after doing all the things I could think of, including downloading Eudora as an email client (only to get the same delay problem), I called back today. They finally acknowledged that they have a problem: "Our engineers are working on it and it should be fixed in 24 hours." I have been surviving by using the webmail version of Verizon/Yahoo mail and my BlackBerry, both of which avoid the delay. But it is mighty inconvenient. I will be asking for a refund for 25% of my monthly bill.
but it wasn't by Friday afternoon.
I told them my Verizon Wireless was also affected so they escalated the case yesterday. As of now I only receive emails after several hours and the ones I send take several hours. I am still receiving emails that were send on Friday!
Wonderful........so it's over to Gmail. Even when I synchronize gmail accounts to the verizon accounts there is a delay. So for now it's over with Verizon.net emails and of course like you I shall insist on compensation.

Can not open some links on verizon email & aol email however using same browser I can in yahoo mail. What is problem?

I get invalid URL on verizon & aol mail?

That problem can be caused by the Yahoo! Toolbar that extents too much downwards and covers the top part of the browser window and thus makes links in that part of the screen not clickable.

I can't receive mail from my verizon/yahoo account on my imac running snow leopard. I checked all settings with verizon but still have the problem

My mail application on my imac will not download mail from my verizon/yahoo account. I contacted verizon and confirmed my settings to be correct. I don't get any error messages, I can send mail but I can't retrieve it from V/Y. Connection doctor shows all connections with a green light.

Incoming Mail Server: imap.verzon.net
Outgoing Mail Server(SMTP): smtp.verizon.net:your email [email protected]
If that does not work, call Verizon for instructions.

Windows live mail 2102 and Verizon yahoo email

Hello

I use Windows mail since I do like the Verizon webmail feel and format
These two program have worked fine for me until yesterday
Today we try to access yahoo mail using Windows live I get a series of errors .
These errors include
1) timeout
2) wrong password
Last night at the recommendation of VZ tech support I deleted my Live account and created a new one for the same yahoo mail address. This worked last night as all me server email were downloaded for Windows live.
However this morning when I access Windows love I get the same errors ay yesterday and no new emails since last night
I have deleted my anti virus program to see if this solved the problem , however this had no impact
Per VZ tech support I am using the correct port setting, I have tried alternative port setting with no luck
I would appreciate any help in fixing this issue
Thanks

I have had the same experience. The answer is to disconnect your verizon email from yahoo email and then to setup your email settings as described in a recent announcement from Verizon that was sent to users that do NOT use the Verizon Yahoo servers.
Anthony_VZ provides instructions in the Verizon Community Forum - Verizon.net topic. I was so disgusted by the time I wasted trying to get support to answer the simple question of what settings I should be using that I was ready to dump Verizon completely. I was eventually sent to Verizon Premium Support that would answer the question for $14.99 per month with a commitment of 10 months. I have no idea if the Verizon Yahoo ports are even compatible with Windows Live Mail any more or not (nomal support is not "trained in Windows Live Mail"). How they can make something as straightforward as providing email client settings for a common client so difficult is beyond me.
As you can tell, I am very angry about the time I wasted on this. Disconnect your Verizon email account from Yahoo and life will be better. Good Luck.

Keep getting Yahoo e-mail instead of Verizon e-mail

Keep getting Yahoo e-mail instead of Verizon e-mail. prinst is so tiny I can barely readit. Get me back on Verizon amd get rid of Yahoo - make the print large so I can read it. Thank you.

You will need to contact Verizon support. This is a peer-to-peer support forum. Tech Support should be able to get you fixed up though.
