- Before deleting your account, make sure you have backed up any important emails or data you want to keep.
- Deleting your Yahoo Mail account will also delete all associated data, including contacts, calendar events, and any other information stored in your account.
- If you're using a Yahoo Mail account for business or professional purposes, you may want to consider alternative email services that offer more features and support.
- After deleting your account, you will no longer be able to access your Yahoo Mail account or any associated data.
Alternative options:
