We've been reading quite a few bad things about Yahoo lately: Last month, a massive breach was revealed that affected data from 500 million users. Last week, the company found itself scanning the messages email of its users by delivering these information in the US secret services.
It is natural, therefore, that too many users have thought of turning to other services that offer at least one elementary security.
The problem is that while the company gives you access to your account deletion, it does not let you leave Yahoo Mail. In accordance with Associated Press, the service has disabled a feature that allows forwarders to be forwarded to different addresses.
This means that you still need to open your Yahoo inbox to check if someone is still sending you email at your old address.
The only way to get your contacts updated to change your address is autoresponse out-of-office that continues to work, unlike AutoPlay. This feature allows automatic answers if you are absent.
In the automatic reply e-mail you can write one message which will include your new email address.
