Why yahoo mails are not forwarding
The frustration of not being able to forward emails from Yahoo Mail!
There could be several reasons why your Yahoo Mail emails are not forwarding. Here are some possible causes:
- Forwarding settings not enabled: Make sure that forwarding is enabled in your Yahoo Mail settings. To do this, log in to your Yahoo Mail account, click on the gear icon, and select "More settings" from the dropdown menu. Then, click on the "Forwarding" tab and ensure that the "Forwarding" option is enabled.
- Incorrect forwarding email address: Double-check that the email address you're trying to forward to is correct. If the address is incorrect, the forwarding won't work.
- Email address not verified: If the email address you're trying to forward to is not verified, the forwarding won't work. Make sure that the email address is verified by checking the email inbox for a verification email from Yahoo.
- Forwarding limit exceeded: Yahoo Mail has a forwarding limit of 100 emails per day. If you've exceeded this limit, you won't be able to forward any more emails until the next day.
- Email size limit: Yahoo Mail has a file size limit of 25MB for attachments. If the email you're trying to forward exceeds this limit, it won't be forwarded.
- Email content restrictions: Yahoo Mail has restrictions on the types of content that can be forwarded. For example, you can't forward emails that contain certain types of attachments, such as executable files.
- Third-party email clients or filters: If you're using a third-party email client or filter, it may be interfering with the forwarding process. Try disabling these clients or filters to see if it resolves the issue.
- Yahoo Mail outage or maintenance: Occasionally, Yahoo Mail may experience outages or maintenance that can affect forwarding. Check the Yahoo Mail status page to see if there are any known issues.
- Email account settings: Check your email account settings to ensure that they're correct. For example, make sure that your email account is set to "Allow less secure apps" if you're using a third-party email client.
- Yahoo Mail security settings: Yahoo Mail has security settings that can block forwarding. Check your security settings to ensure that forwarding is allowed.
If none of these solutions work, you can try contacting Yahoo Mail support for further assistance.
