I am using "MY Yahoo" as my home page for a long time now and my preferred content is Yahoo India. My friend who recently made MY Yahoo as his home page with the preferred content as English India has a much better look and content. How do I get the new look and content? Yahoo advises me to change my content option to Yahoo U.S. I prefer a Yahoo India content. I seem to get an option only between Yahoo india and Yahoo US and never between English US and English India content. How do I sort this out?
"My Yahoo" home page of mine is different from the"MY Yahoo" home page of my friend. Why?
This may be a case of the "grass is greener", green being the color of envy. Someone may have better advice for you, but I think maybe being on another continent has something to do with it. He may be asking the same question over there,
of course he may not even be in India , now that I think about it. In which case my argument is completely worthless and I apologize for wasting your time.

No...it is not true. When I get stuff like this on my e-mail I go to snopes.com to check it out. Most of the time the stuff I get is false., but I like to check anyway.
Reply:NO -- it is a very OLD spoof that goes around about Yahoo and any of the other sites that offer these accounts. It is a form of chain letter. Delete it, PLEASE!
Reply:Fake, they just want you to send that around.
Reply:100% CRAP. Yahoo has absolutely nothing to gain by doing such a thing. Don't fall for such an obvious scam!! Just delete it. And tell others not to be fooled by it.

Why yahoo is some time slow and why yahoo voice call service stop i use but now not working last 2months i do?
I like Yahoo too, but it would help if you used some punctuation. Reading your run-on sentence gave me a headache.
Yahoo gets busy sometimes, as people use it and as there is more demand for resources. It's free or low-cost, and you get what you pay for. If you want better service, you should be willing to pay for it.

"Fugly" is the key word.
Also, it is worded in a very angry way, and that, coupled with the rest, led someone to turn this question into the Abuse Center

Reply:well it did have the world hate in it
Reply:I think they decided "hate women" was out of bounds.
Reply:Use them for sex. Is why

Why does Yahoo let spam from www.21springshoe.com which pretends to be from my yahoo address inside yahoo?
I got a spam email apparently from my own yahoo.co.uk account to my own yahoo account. The email header shows it came from some ISP in Greece. The spam advertises a well known spam site www.21springshoe.com (dont go there!)
I would have thought that real yahoo mail can only originate from one of yahoo's own servers. Therefore it should be possible to ensure that any mail sent to a Yahoo address and purporting to come from a Yahoo address must originate from a yahoo server. My guess is that Yahoo's failure to do this will damage my ability to use Yahoo as there will be many people now who will mistakenly label me as a spammer.
Has anyone else had this problem and how can we get yahoo to defend us against this?
Why does Yahoo let spam from www.21springshoe.com which pretends to be from my yahoo address inside yahoo?
It's not just yahoo. I got the same thing happen with my work e-mail. You can submit a formal complaint with the Federal Trade Commission at https://rn.ftc.gov. It won't stop it, but it will help when they are able to take the individuals involved to trial.
Spammers can thrive because there is little social and legal ramifications for their actions. While direct action cannot be taken at this time, (at least until class action suits can be correctly laid against the correct ^$#^holes), you can vote with your checkbook.
My spam was an advertisement for Gucci. I don't know if that company paid these people to send out these unsolicited e-mails, but I don't see anything on thier website, or in buisiness news that thier images and logo without permission, so I have to assume they are tacitly approving of this illegal action. I am not going to by _anything_ from that company, and I would advise everyone to not to buy thier products either.
Reply:They can't possibly block all spam
