I trust that the vast majority of you all would never fall for such an obvious ruse (notice I spelled that correctly this time), but given the number of questions I’m getting via email, as well as what many users are asking on Yahoo! Answers (more than 6,000 questions!), I think it’s worth a reminder. […]
RESOLVED: Postmaster Queue Delays

If you are like me, you first noticed the charming, yet goofy, ambassador for Yahoo! Mail almost two years ago, bouncing and pogo-ing around the beta version of what is now the All-New Yahoo! Mail. Of course, back then I was in the same non-employee boat that most of you are right now. […]
Yahoo! gets in on the Freecycle frenzy
In the interest of practicing what we preach, earlier today Yahoo! had a Free is Good Fair in honor of Earth Day.
Hopefully you saw the post last week encouraging users to participate in Freecycle and Reuse groups that enable people in local communities to give and receive “free” goods from their neighbors. Yahoo! gave […]
Yahoo! + Earth Day = Freecycle it!
No matter which side of the Global Warming discussion you fall, I think one thing that just about everyone can agree on is that getting something you want, for free, is way cool. Especially if it is something that you want (and were about to spend money to get), or it’s something you want to […]

New blog URL, same great blog taste!
It may seem like a relatively minor development for all of you, but today marks a big day for the Yahoo! Mail blog.
I’m sure that most of you already noticed, given that you are all very security conscious net wanderers and always keep an eye on the browser address (after all it is Yahoo! […]
Text Insertion Issue within Mail

We are aware that some users have noticed small amounts of text added to the footer of some messages after sending.
Impacted messages will display text that reads “between 0000-00-00 and 9999-99-99” only after a message has been sent. The text is then visible to the sender (via the Sent folder) as well as to […]
Issues with blog
Hi everyone,
I’m aware that some people may be hitting errors when trying to navigate to certain areas of this site. First, let me assure you that this is totally unrelated to Mail. Rather it is totally related to me.
While upgrading the blog platform software last night I may have hit a snag, so […]

That’s right, Yahoo! Mail has claimed April and we have christened it Yahoo! Mail Security Month. Hence the shield-totin’ Liam you see to the right. —>
You may have already noticed that the Mail tips on your main page (Mail tab in Classic, Home tab in All-New Mail) had taken a turn for the […]
