[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] Yahoo Emails in Outlook

Elaine,

I'm saddened, but I think you are correct.

According to Yahoo Help, you can enable automatic email forwarding in 
New Mail for Desktop. To do this, you need to upgrade to Yahoo Mail Plus 
or subscribe to Access + Forwarding to use the email forwarding feature 
in your Settings.

I also concur that email going into the trash automatically is a 
separate issue. The person who has the email account that is putting 
email in the trash automatically needs to have an email rule set up on 
the server telling the mail server that all new email from you is to go 
to the inbox and not to trash.




Drew.
