I'm not getting all of my email since Yahoo switch....does anyone think it will get better?
I have been randomly not receiving email since the switch to Yahoo(I access email direct through a browser). Some email comes through....some(even email I bcc myself on from a gmail account) don't. There is no issue with blocked addresses, or any other setting....verified by Yahoo tech support. Consulted with Yahoo support and they say it's not their issue. Do any of you tech savy people think this situation will get better? I started switching some of my email accounts to gmail....the most important business ones. But what a pain this is.0Views0likes0CommentsPremature success
After struggling for two full day and getting my 5 accounts to work on Thunderbird and IOS, non were able to receive messages this morning and a bare few are coming through now. Could it be that Yahoo does not have adequate server capacity to handle the additional Cox traffic?2Views0likes0CommentsCapped at 100Mbps even though I'm paying for 1Gbps
I moved into this house a little over a month ago and I have not been able to get even close to the speeds I'm paying for. I have the 1Gbps plan and can never exceed about 90Mbps. I have had no success with chat agents as none of them seem to understand what I'm saying. I even tried replacing the modem in case there was an issue with that but it's still the exact same problem. I finally had a technician out yesterday who replaced a line outside the house (which wasn't necessary and didn't do anything to fix the issue and now I have to wait two weeks for someone else to come bury it) and then said I would need a "maintenance tech" to check settings at the box outside my house (not sure why the first tech couldn't do it) and he said that tech would arrive by 7pm yesterday; however, no one ever showed up. I am at my wits' end trying to find someone who can both understand my issue and actually fix it. It should not be this hard to get what I'm paying for.18Views0likes1CommentSerious Issue With Yahoo Mail
There is a serious problem with Yahoo mail. While I was bale to set up the Yahoo account I noticed that I was not getting all my emails and the "lost" emails were not in my Inbox, Trash or Spam folder and I did not have any filters and blocked addresses that could cause the problem. And, it seems there is at least one other person with the same issue. So I called Yahoo tech support and after much discussion and higher ups getting involved here is what I was told: I was told to contact the companies, or people, that I was not receiving the emails from and ask them to update their security settings and that there is nothing that Yahoo can do at its end as they won't accept emails from sources that don't meet Yahoo's security needs. I was told by the tech support person that it was my responsibility to get the problem solved not Yahoo's.69Views0likes1CommentGobsmacked at the Unlimited Lie.. It's not even hidden
Since the ACP is ending prices have gone up significantly and now the word unlimited is in the top line of every internet plan that Cox sells but if you scroll to the bottom of that offer you will find a data cap and an insane amount of overage charges if you go over 1.28 terabytes this is just it's sad. I guess, in this age of misinformation it's okay to say oh "it's unlimited" and when you read the last line on the contract data cap is Applied at 1.28 TB Oh well, we're going back to the practice of keeping the poor people poor, making them pay more, make them get less and make him think they've got it made by the lies on the label. Only to find out when the bill comes that they have made a horrible mistake and they have been grifted by their internet service provider.36Views0likes1CommentNot getting all email
I was able to set up the Yahoo account. But while I am getting some emails, I am definitely not getting all emails. I checked and they are not in the spam folder or trash folder, and I have no filters or blocked address on Yahoo that could be causing the problem. In other words, while Yahoo is getting some of the emails sent to myadress@cox.net not all of them are getting to Yahoo. I definitely know that these emails were sent and the people sending them had my correct email address, but they are not all getting through to Yahoo for some reason. For example I got the email sent to me to complete my registration to this forum others have not even got to Yahoo and are not there in my Inbox, Trash, or Spam folder. I was wondering if anyone else has had the same problem?149Views1like8CommentsUdate on 'not getting all my mail'
I have really appreciated the comments and info above from users. I wrote a message about 10 days ago about receiving very little mail and no sent mail in the new Yahoo account. I think now, after review, that since I was using Thunderbird as a front end and using a POP server, the ‘missing’ mail and sent mail was obviously in the TBird account on my computer. Which I was worried that it would just be a static, frozen data file. Using the info I wrote down about the servers POP and smtp before the merger I wondered if I could merge the Cox-Yahoo new info into the existing account. (Rather than having TBird create a NEW second account for Cox-Yahoo). I opened my existing TBird account and went into the account settings and put in the POP and SMTP info for Yahoo. I had a few challenges since at first there was no OAuth2 in the choices in the drop down list. After a little fiddling around and some restarts of TBird and one trip to Yahoo, suddenly that choice appeared in the list and I was done and it works fine. So I wind up with all my mail and all my sent mail from before and all the new data from the Cox-Yahoo account in my 'new' original TBird account, my objective. My idea of modifying the existing TBird account was reinforced by several of the messages above, and thank you for that added info.62Views1like1CommentE-mail Transition Failure
Since my e-mail has transitioned to Yahoo, I am losing e-mails. E-mails that I have been getting forever are no longer getting delivered, or very sporadic. See below for examples of e-mail concerns. E-mails from Amazon when placing orders; sometimes they get to me, but most of the time not being delivered E-mails from Generac when the generator operates; same as above for Amazon E-mails from friends; one friend sent me an e-mail 5 times before it was ever delivered I try to call Yahoo and all I get is a recording saying there is an extremely long wait an to try calling at a different time. It does let you hang on, but I final gave up after 2 hours. This is totally ridiculous.22Views0likes0CommentsAccess denied when opening COSTCO web site
