Why my yahoo mail cannot send email

Frustrating! There could be several reasons why your Yahoo Mail account is unable to send emails. Let's troubleshoot together to identify the issue. Here are some common causes and potential solutions:

  1. Login issues: Ensure you're logged in correctly to your Yahoo Mail account. Check your username and password, and try logging in again.
  2. Outdated browser or app: Update your browser or app to the latest version. Sometimes, outdated software can cause issues with sending emails.
  3. Server issues: Yahoo Mail servers might be experiencing technical difficulties. Try checking the Yahoo Mail status page or Twitter account for any updates on server issues.
  4. Spam filters: Your email provider's spam filters might be blocking your emails. Check your email settings to see if you have any filters enabled that could be causing the issue.
  5. Email address blocked: Your email address might be blocked by the recipient's email provider or their spam filters. Try sending an email to a different recipient to see if the issue persists.
  6. Attachment issues: Large attachments or attachments with certain file types might be causing the issue. Try sending a simple text email without attachments to see if it works.
  7. Email client issues: If you're using an email client like Microsoft Outlook or Mozilla Thunderbird, try switching to the web-based version of Yahoo Mail to see if the issue persists.
  8. Firewall or antivirus software: Your firewall or antivirus software might be blocking the email sending process. Try temporarily disabling these programs to see if it resolves the issue.
  9. Yahoo Mail settings: Check your Yahoo Mail settings to ensure that your account is set up correctly. Go to Settings > Accounts > Send/Receive and ensure that your account is set to send emails.
  10. Account suspension: Your Yahoo Mail account might be suspended due to suspicious activity or policy violations. Try contacting Yahoo Mail support to resolve the issue.
