Yahoo is one of the favorite email clients for Internet users, for several well-known reasons. From the features to the interface, Yahoo definitely offers something extraordinary. One of these features is ‘auto forwarding’ offered by yahoo mail, where it forwards your emails to the address you want.
For example, you have a good number of email addresses, and you don’t have time to check each one of them. This may cause you to skip some important emails that were top priority. So to avoid losing important emails, Yahoo allows you to forward your emails to any other email client, possibly one you log into every day.
Oh really! You can use Yahoo’s mail forwarding feature and make your emails more organized. Let’s get into the procedure.
Forward Yahoo Mail to another email address
If you want to forward Yahoo mail (for the latest version of Yahoo) to any other email address, here are the steps you need to follow:
Let’s start with the steps:
- Log in to your Yahoo account, click on the ‘Mail’ option on the top right corner.
- In the top right corner, click on the ‘Account Information’ option and a drop down menu will appear; click ‘Settings’ and then click ‘Go’ next to it.
- On the right you will see a section where you can edit your account details, scroll down and in the ‘Forwarding’ text field, enter the emails you want to forward the emails to.
- Scroll up and click on the ‘Save’ option which is in the left column at the top.
This is how you can simply forward your Yahoo email to any of your other email addresses.
Forwarding Yahoo email to any other email client using the above process is a piece of cake. But that’s for the basic version of Yahoo. If you want to try the latest version of Yahoo, the steps are a bit different. For example, you have a Gmail account and want to forward all your Yahoo emails using the basic version. Let me tell you about that as well to make it simpler for you.
How to forward Yahoo mail to Gmail?
To forward Yahoo mail to Gmail, make sure the Gmail address is not the one set as the recovery email address for Yahoo. Take a look at the steps:
- Sign in to your Yahoo account in a web browser and click the ‘Mail’ icon in the top right corner to open your Yahoo Inbox.
- Click on the ‘switch to newer Yahoo Mail’ option at the top right.
- Tap on the ‘Settings’ icon on the right side and then click on the ‘More settings’ option at the bottom
- Click on the ‘Mailboxes’ option in the left column.
- Then click on your Yahoo email address to edit the settings.
- Scroll down the right hand column and you will find an option for ‘Forwarding’ where you just need to enter your Gmail address to forward your Yahoo mail account to your Gmail account; click ‘Save’ to confirm the changes.
This will automatically forward all your Yahoo emails to your Gmail account. You do not need to sign in to Yahoo mail to access emails.
In the same way, you can forward emails from your Gmail account.
How to fix Yahoo mail forwarding not working?
Facing an error while forwarding a Yahoo email to another email account? Yes, this can also happen.
Here are the steps that will help to get rid of the error:
- Make sure the device is properly connected to the Internet.
- Check if the browser you are using supports Yahoo mail; if so, make sure it is up to date.
- Please make sure the email address you entered to forward the emails is completely correct.
- Web browser extensions such as plug-ins or plugins can also create problems when forwarding emails. Please remove all those plugins and then try to resend an email.
- Try to access your Yahoo account from a different device. If you can do it, then the problem is with your computer or laptop.
