Yahoo Mail Forwarding - where has the option gone? Thread poster: Wenke Geddert

Hi y'all
Would you know by any chance where the mail "forwarding" option in Yahoo has gone? It used to be part of the "mail options" but I cannot locate it there any more....
Thanks for your assistance!
Kind regards
Wenke
P.S. I have already sent a note to Yahoo help, but from previous experience it "loops" - i.e. first of all I get an automated response and then it doesn't get me anywhere. A phone number would be handy, too, ... See more Hi y'all

P.S. I have already sent a note to Yahoo help, but from previous experience it "loops" - i.e. first of all I get an automated response and then it doesn't get me anywhere. A phone number would be handy, too, to try & give them a ring. Cheers!
P.P.S. I have since found out that there should be a "POP Access & Forwarding" link in the Management section of the Mail Options screen - however, I canot seem to locate this one!

I am using Yahoo mail (plus) and when you open a message, you have four buttons above it: delete, reply, forward and spam.
good luck, Anjo
I understand you mean POP access and forwarding options? In my mail plus version still there under mail options - Management. I have not checked this with a free acount though.

Then the next column says: Mail plus:POP access and forwarding, and more great features for just $19.99/year.
So it is now only for updated addresses , the good news is that I paid $39, and it is now only $19.99 a year.....

if it's the settings you are looking for, I find them after having logged in > yahoo mail > welcome screen; on the top right, there are Mail Alerts and Mail Options - by clicking on Mail Options you get various settings, among which PoP mail and Mail forwarding.

... strange one indeed. Guess, it's a case for Yahoo as the "POP Access & Forwarding" link in the Management section of the Mail Options screen is definitely not there. Let's wait and see what Yahoo comes back with. Thanks for your assistance! | |

I have Yahoo SBC DSL, a paid service, and I see the function under Mail Options. POP access was probably offered to all Yahoo users, but not any more. | | | Gilda Manara Italy Local time: 05:43 German to Italian + ...
I have a free account, Yongmei, and the option is definitely there and available... Strange indeed, let's see what Wenke hears from Yahoo!

In the German version (free-mail) I also have those four buttons (or even five, with "move to") but they are only visible with a mail opened, so maybe you switched off any of those "preferences" in your browser? Anyway, it seems a bit strange and I'm curious to know what yahoo will answer - if at all:(
Cheers,

Having received an email from Yahoo help, the problem is now sorted.
My problem had arisen because the "POP access and forwarding" link (which I previously accessed to forward all emails to my other email account) had not been there/visible any longer.

Wenke,
With interest I read your question regarding Auto-forwarding with Yahoo! mail...
(I found this site through Google as I experienced the same problem...)
*However*... I still haven't managed to solve it??
What *exactly* did you do?
Under "Mail Options" I can *not* see a link to "POP Access and
Forwarding"...?
I can *not* see radio button either...?
I *really* appreciate your help in this!!
