Can't send mail on yahoo account

Frustrating! Don't worry, I'm here to help you troubleshoot the issue. Here are some steps to help you resolve the problem:

Check your account settings

  1. Log in to your Yahoo account and go to the "Settings" or "Account Info" page.
  2. Check if your account is set to "Allow less secure apps" (this setting is usually enabled by default). If it's not, toggle it to "On".
  3. Make sure your account is not suspended or locked due to suspicious activity.

Check your email client settings

  1. If you're using a third-party email client (e.g., Outlook, Thunderbird, etc.) to send emails from your Yahoo account, check the settings:
    • Ensure the account settings are correct, including the username, password, and server settings.
    • Try resetting the email client's settings to their default values.
  2. If you're using a web-based email client (e.g., Yahoo Mail's web interface), try sending an email from the web interface to see if the issue persists.

Check for spam filters

  1. Yahoo has a built-in spam filter that might be blocking your emails. Check your spam folder to see if any emails are being sent to the spam folder.
  2. If you're using a third-party email client, check if the spam filter is enabled and adjust the settings accordingly.

Check for account issues

  1. Try sending an email to a different recipient to see if the issue is specific to a particular recipient or email address.
  2. Check your account's "Outbox" folder to see if any emails are stuck there. If they are, try deleting them and sending the email again.

Contact Yahoo support

  1. If none of the above steps resolve the issue, you can contact Yahoo's customer support for further assistance.
  2. Provide them with detailed information about the issue, including any error messages you've received.

Additional troubleshooting steps

  1. Try sending an email from a different device or browser to see if the issue is device-specific.
  2. Check your internet connection and ensure it's stable and working properly.
  3. If you're using a VPN or proxy server, try disabling it and see if the issue persists.

I hope these steps help you resolve the issue and get your Yahoo account sending emails again!
