Why You Should Not Use Yahoo Mail

These days many email services are coming around which are more secure. However people still open the mail account with Yahoo. And the reason for that is because it is easy to remember. And many people are still signing up for their service. There are chances that Yahoo mail can be one good service to subscribe for throw away address. But let’s not think about it in that scenario. Let’s think of scenario where people aree genuinely opening their mailbox for online website. And that can be bad considering the yahoo has plenty of issues. So in this article I want to discuss some of the issues that you can face while managing the yahoo mail.

Security

I think last year in 2016 there was big issue with the yahoo mail passwords. All the passwords in yahoo network were open. And they forced the users to open new accounts or change the passwords. The passwords which were leaked were real. And that in turn made it harder for many people to keep up. Many good people lost their data too. So it can be bad considering the way yahoo keeps the security. Just like gmail they have improved on many points. But all in all, there are not many good reasons to use it anymore. In fact very few people are choosing to use it over a period of time.

Spam

You can find that almost every single mail address can be spammed. This is because the database people spam the email address. You can find that people who are into spamming the email address. So you can find plenty of startup pitches and the shopping cart links in it. So this sort of method in the spam can be really hard. You just have to deal with the way spam happens. It can be possible that spam may to some extent can be controlled. But with Yahoo mail that is not easy. And for this reason many people who are into the mail management don’t prefer this. And this should be avoided at all cost.

Unreliable

You can see that security and spam are serious issues. Even for free service that is not acceptable. You can use it for throw away email. But given time that is going to affect you. I think i personally using them for this purpose is another same reason. But you can guess that some of the time it may not be a good idea to use such services. You have to choose to open another services mail account. And from there you can decide if it is any worth to use their service if you want to just get spammed with such mails and also facing some security issues. That;s the thing to watch out as well.

That being said, make sure to try the outlook.com and gmail.come instead of using the Ymail adddress. You can see that these days secure and encrypted emails are also out there with protonmail and openmailbox. So that’s something you can get rid of and use instead of using the yahoo mail address. See if that works for you.
