Can you run gifs in yahoo mail

Unfortunately, Yahoo Mail does not support playing GIFs directly within the email client. However, there are a few workarounds you can try:

  1. Embedded GIFs: If the GIF is embedded in the email body, you can try clicking on the GIF to open it in a new tab or window. This might work if the GIF is small enough to be displayed in the email body.
  2. Attachments: If the GIF is attached to the email, you can download it and then open it in a separate GIF viewer or image editing software.
  3. Third-party add-ons: There are some third-party add-ons and extensions available for Yahoo Mail that can help you play GIFs. For example, you can try installing the "GIF Viewer" add-on for Yahoo Mail, which allows you to play GIFs directly in your email.
  4. Copy and paste: If the GIF is hosted on a website, you can try copying the GIF URL and pasting it into a new tab or window to view it.

Keep in mind that these workarounds might not work for all GIFs, especially if they are large or complex. Additionally, some GIFs might not be compatible with Yahoo Mail's email client.

If you're looking for a more seamless GIF viewing experience, you might consider using a different email client or service that supports GIF playback, such as Gmail or Outlook.
