Yahoo! e-mail appears to be down

#1 Post by Bob78164 » Mon Jun 02, 2014 2:04 pm

I haven't received an e-mail to my Yahoo! account in three hours or more. That never happens during the week. Also, I just tried sending a test e-mail from my work account and it hasn't yet arrived. It looks like Yahoo! e-mail (or at least my e-mail address) is down. --Bob

I received an email from a yahoo account at 3:51
Suitguy is not bitter.

feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive

The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

I think I can still send from the account. It just isn't receiving e-mails at the moment. --Bob

the email I received was a response to a previous email to that yahoo account

When did you send yours? It looks like the most recent e-mail I received was at 10:36 a.m. PDT this morning. --Bob

I didn't have a problem at all with my Yahoo account.

I checked throughout the day at work (awaiting for confirmation of my agency timesheet) on both my work computer and my Android. A steady flow of messages.
