Why does my BTYahoo email inbox show that I have 1 New Message when I don't?

My BTYahoo email account has been showing that I have an unread message for months now when I actually don't. Its really starting to bug me and of course BT charge a fortune for technical help! Has anyone had the same issue? I have tried the new version and it did not correct it so I went back to the original version as I prefer it.

Try clicking on the mail icon in the tool bar at the top of the home page.
Reply:Yahoo was contacted about this and say it's a glitch, they have their engineers working on the problem. As long as you have looked through all the emails, open the inbox, click view all messages, then unread messages, if you have any late arrivals or in folders they will show. This has been happening in the classic mail since Yahoo has been upgrading the classic. It cleared for the rest of us without doing anything to make changes or fixing it. At the same time our new mail alerts stopped working, all is well now.
Reply:this is so annoying, mine has started showing two messages that are supposedly unread in my inbox. when I go in it says no unread messages.


It did this a while back then corrected itself or yahoo, dealt with it.


I don't know what the answer is
Reply:Do you have an email in your inbox? If so, click on it and wait for about 3mins so that it registers you have read it. It shouldn't show up as unread again. Usually, if we read an email fast, under a minute, it is still registered as unread. Other than that, can't help you. Sorry
Reply:Happens to me too but they are usually sent straight to spam when i look in the inbox..
Reply:Its possibly an old message that has been marked as read. Go through previous message list to find that sucker.
Reply:It can be manually marked read or deleted or moved to another inbox folder.


Can I send btyahoo email from another server?

I use outlook as an email client. For a large proportion of the year I live in Belgium and, using a Belgacom account, I can download email but not send it. Is it possible to configure my account to allow sending?





I know that I can use the web intefrace, but this is very inconvenient.





thanks

I have configured Outlook to send and receive several e-mail accounts.





The key is getting the correct settings from your provider and entering them before you run the Outlook Test programme.





Under Outlook %26gt; Tools %26gt; EMail Accounts %26gt; Add A New Account
Reply:Do you have an email account with Belgacom? Try using the Belgacom SMTP server (relay.skynet.be) instead of the BT one when you are connected through Belgacom. make a note of the BT one (smtp.btsomething.something) and put that back when in the UK.





(It is the SMTP server which sends emails.)

How do I automatically forward my email from my btyahoo address to my yahoo address?

I still can't figure this out. Am I being thick? I've bookmarked the two servers but it doesn't save the right email address and I can't work out the blurb POPs and HTLM or whatever just to set the thing so that my bt yahoo email is forwarded to my Yahoo address. Being the same company it must be easy!

How do I automatically forward my email from my btyahoo address to my yahoo address?
To get your Mail settings for Yahoo, click on OPTIONS in the right hand corner of your mail box and you will find links there, follow the instructions. Good luck
Reply:Copy and Paste :D

Can I set up a seperate email address in addition to my main btyahoo email?

Yes you can. The primary account will be the one that allows you to mange your BT Yahoo account but you can create up to 9 more additional e-mail addresses and disposable e-mail addresses that you can use to join sites that insist on a valid e-mail to sign up with then simply delete them and avoid spam

Is the "urgent changes in BTinternet and BTYahoo email" email I have received a spam/con?

I have been told to log into BTYahoo.com/verify otherwise I may get my emails blocked. There is nothing about this on BTYahoo website so I assume it must be a scam so I have done nothing. Anyone had the same?

it must be scam.
Reply:Yes my dad did. He rang up BT and they told him it was a scam. You can ring them and double check for your own peace of mind.
Reply:I not had anything!


How do I make BTYahoo my default email using Firefox?

I bought a new scanner, hp scanjet G4010, it has a "scan to email" facility - I tried it, got all mixed up and have somehow got windows mail as my email provider.





Help !!

How do I make BTYahoo my default email using Firefox?
Yes, your default e-mail will always be a program installed on your computer such as Windows mail and Microsoft Outlook.





I don't think you can set an internet e-mail as your default, what you can do is scan the image, then go to BTYahoo mail and upload the scanned image to send it. This may take a little longer but it will work.





Either that or you could set a windows mail account up, i have both windows mail and yahoo! mail.
