Yahoo push has not been working since Friday for me. Anybody else have this issue? I know it's common for Yahoo to do this but since Friday??? How hard is it to get email working properly...???

Or simply restart your phone. It's helped me before when simply restarting the mail program hasn't worked. For me yahoo mail has been working fairly ok recently.

Wish it were that easy... Its not working for lots of people. Yahoo has admitted there is a issue and is supposively working on it. So they say.

Cant handle it... First off i cant get IMAP for my Macs with Yahoo, only the iPhone - limiting me to use Webmail which is nice but a pain.. I am moving to GMX which never ever goes down and has proper IMAP for all devices and extremely good push... http://www.gmx.com

My Yahoo push has been down since Friday, meaning i have to go thru safari on iphone to mail.yahoo.com which is a pain....

Only thing now is i need to know how to move 2GB of mail out of Yahoo categorized in folders. If i can make iPhone download it all then find a third-party app to reverse sync it to my MBP under a new Mail.app profile....

Hope i can do this..

You don't have to go thru Safari. Just take off push and set it to poll every 15 minutes (or whatever you'd like) That still works. At least until push is fixed. I tried that GMX mail. Does not work on the iPhone. Or at least the settings they say to add don't work... Just wait until Yahoo is fixed... save yourself a headache.
