Anyone having problems with Yahoo Mail?

Down, down, down!

 

Very frustrating. This has been happening more frequently over the past few months.

I'm also getting the image of a crying baby with the message

"Sorry, we are over capacity.

Please wait a moment and try again."

 

This seems like a hack job to me.

 

 

edit: getting reports that it's down all over, in the U.K., Middle East, etc.

 

This is not good.

Sounds like a DoS attack.

The only problem I have with Yahoo mail is the amount of SPAM that gets snagged but that doesn't matter because it is not my main email account.

I've had problems with it not sending emails for HOURS after I send them. It has almost cost me money a couple of times. I had to switch everything over to gmail (which sucks too), but at least the emails arrive right away.

Okay, back in now!

 

It was down for several hours, though. Not acceptable.

What I hate is that sbcglobal/AT&T e-mail goes through Yahoo.  There's no way around it.

Haven't had an issue with Yahoo mail since I stopped using them in 1995.

yahoo is a dying company. 

they are a good example of a once-innovative tech machine that stopped hiring smart engineers and instead started hiring only MBAs.

they are now a shell of their former self propped up purely on their investment in alibaba.

I remember there was a time Google wanted to rival Yahoo.  They are not even in the same universe anymore.

Especially considering the service fees they are charging you.

People seem to be getting my emails for Russian enhancement pills without issue.

I love Flickr's "Bad Panda" when they are down.
