Does yahoo mail return emails to closed accounts

According to Yahoo's official policy, when you close a Yahoo Mail account, any unread emails in that account will be deleted, and any emails that were sent to that account will be returned to the sender as undeliverable.

Here's what Yahoo says:

• "When you close your Yahoo account, we'll delete any unread emails in your account. If you have any unread emails, you'll need to read them before closing your account or they'll be deleted."
• "If you have any emails that were sent to your Yahoo account but not read, they'll be returned to the sender as undeliverable."

This means that if someone sends an email to a closed Yahoo Mail account, it will bounce back to the sender as undeliverable, and the sender will receive a notification that the email was not delivered.

However, it's worth noting that Yahoo may not always return emails to the sender immediately. In some cases, it may take a few hours or even days for the email to be returned.

If you're concerned about what happens to emails sent to a closed Yahoo Mail account, you can consider the following options:

• Before closing the account, you can forward any important emails to another email address or save them to a different account.
• You can also set up email forwarding rules in your Yahoo Mail account to forward emails to another account before closing the account.
• If you're closing a Yahoo Mail account that's no longer in use, you can simply delete the account and any associated emails without worrying about what happens to emails sent to the account in the future.

I hope that helps!
