Why can't I send email thru my Yahoo account?

Around August 30 or so I stopped being able to send or reply to Yahoo emails or to open attachments sent to me. I've tried changing browsers with no success. I tried using Yahoo's Quick Fix, but they reply that nothing's wrong! I changed to their new email app, with still no success. Sent mail comes back saying "Unauthorized." My business will go in the toilet fast if I can't get this fixed!!

Steps to Fix Sending Emails Issue from Yahoo Mail Account

1.) Firstly, you need to ensure that the problem is not on Yahoo Mail’s end.

2,) Secondly, make sure your Yahoo Mail is connected to the internet. Weak or no internet connection can also cause trouble sending an email.

3.) If you are facing the issue in your Yahoo Mail app, sometimes your file may get corrupted and cause such issues. In such a case, it is suggested to try uninstalling and reinstalling the Yahoo Mail app to fix the issue.

I hope these steps will be helpful!

Try this create a new user account on your system. Give it a try under this account can you open via Safari using webmail are you able to access, sent & receive mail that way?

If you can then your other user account has a corruption within its cache or you have downloaded a Trojan that is acting as a man in the middle that yahoo's session cert is being corrupted.

You will likely need to flush the cache as well as get a good antivirus/malware app to clean it out.

I have been using Yahoo Mail for a long time now and like it for its functionality. Although it is a very reliable email product, there are some odd situations where I face various common errors. Sometimes, Yahoo shows errors and is not able to send any emails. Most of the time, the problem could be the result of various issues, such as weak servers, network problems, third-party app interruptions, settings problems, system glitches, outdated OS, and many others.
