Email problems with Yahoo, Hotmail, and Google

I can't get into Yahoo, Hotmail, or Google mail? Anyone else? So confused.

Lycos was also down earlier on 'for maintenance' but is back now.

All 4 of those websites are connected by different internet peers...
The only common point of connection is your connection and ISP. If the prob. was anywhere its was with your connection/provider.

Yahoo mail. Big smelly pile today? Really not working for me , e-mails taking ages to another yahoo account.

Everything is working just fine for me
:-)

Fine for me as well...

Must be the heat in Leeza's office.

Yep, 'cause my Yahoo mail is also fine.

Maybe it is just sleepy and needs a nice perky "Good Morning"?

I think its all likely to be PEBKAC errors..

Anyone else having trouble logging into yahoo mail? I havent been able to check my email for over 24 hours. Whenever I go to yahoo mail or try to link to it, I just get a blank page. I have tried on both home computers and at work. They all have various versions of windows and i have tried using IE and Firefox, nothing works. I haven't sent an email to Yahoo. Anyone else having these problems.

No, I can access mine just fine. Have you tried deleting cache, cookies etc?

The exact same thing happened to my Yahoo account a couple of weeks ago. I could barely get in for about 2 days, just got a blank page. When I finally could get in, I discovered that my account had been hacked and somebody had sent a spam message from my account to all my contacts. I emailed Yahoo to find out what they are doing to prevent hacking attempts on accounts, for example blocking an IP after a certain number of login attempts or putting in those security key in the code from the garbled piccy boxes when you log in but after about 10 emails back and forth with different ppl in their help center I just keep getting different helpful tips on how I should always log out of my account when I've used a shared computer, even though I have told them as many times that I didn't use a shared computer and that the spam message was sent from an IP not even in the neighbourhood of mine.

If you do get into your Yahoo just one time before they manage to hack it, change your password to something diabolical.

Same thing has happened to me over the past couple days, dolfan. I think I'm going to switch to gmail or hotmail soon. Yahoo's been acting weird for me for a few months.

3 days and I still can't access my mail...frustrating.

Anyway, thanks for the replies.

My wife has problems accessing her yahoo email account. Mine is working ok though.

I have had no mail problems other than gmail being extremely slow to respond, but I have had HUGE problems googling for something and then clicking the link. Apparently, I can only access the google supplied links via some google engine that sends me an error message or a page with no graphics. It has even caused my computer to freeze while the link sorts itself out. Arrgggghhh!

dolfan, i changed my password as recommended here, and now account works fine. good luck!

So today I am having this issue as well.
I never had this problem before.

When I log into Yahoo Mail from http://mail.yahoo.com or from the startsite, http://www.yahoo.com, the page will not load. Also, when I click on my mail from Yahoo Messenger, it will not load. I've tried using FF & IE. I've cleared all private data, cleared my cookies, etc. I even tried to use Microsoft Outlook, but it did not work.

Anyone else have problems today?
Very frustrating.

I have been trying to use old accounts of mine on other websites, which I (unfortunately) forgot the password to. Of course, I used the "forgot password" link, but it was e-mailed to me! I cannot check my e-mail to find out my old password. Bleh.

veronica, I have tried everything, including changing my password, I have been in contact with Yahoo for the past 3 days. They "know" there is an issue and they are "working" on it. This is very frustrating, if it was n't a free service I'd cancel my subscription!

i am also having that problem , till that is fixed check ur mail here

http://us.m.yahoo.com/p/mail

Woohoo! That link works (for the time being). Thanks. lol

Thanks kadhal, much appreciated.

Have the same problem with my Y! account... mobile site is nice, but none of the links work... shitty

I am sick and tired of this! Here is the google problem that infects both Googling and my mail:

The link worked thank-you. Paul

I had the same problem with one of my yahoo accounts. could not access it anywhere and I could access the others.
well, http://us.m.yahoo.com/p/mail has worked for me.
thanks kadhal.

Ok, it is early (well, earlyish). I just wanted to send an email off to someone and, for some reason, I cannot find the "compose" button. Is it hidden? If anyone could lead me to the button I would be very grateful.


Edit: Opps found it. It is now called the "new" button.
