[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] Yahoo Mail Going Away?

[Robert Primak]

 Yes, there is a Yahoo App. It's for phones, both Android and iPhone. I don't use it. My Android phone uses gmail. On a phone, gmail is an App. 
What's happening is like Comcast and many others before them, Yahoo is dividing their unified App into several more specialized Apps. This makes maintenance of the Apps easier for them. It may change a little how you use Yahoo Mail and other Yahoo services on a phone, but it is legit, and there will be some other changes soon as well. 
Your email service will not be interrupted. Using Yahoo Mail and their other services on a computer will remain essentially the same.

 I would assume that the message is malicious.  They know who you are and they didn't even address you.
Do not click on any link in the message.   Go to yahoo.com to see if there is a yahoo mail app, and even this is strange.
You do not need to install an application on your machine to read and send yahoo mail.  You do that in a browser.
Anyone know more about this?-steve

Hello Listers Have others received this notification about the "Yahoo app going away at the end of June?" What impact will this have on the LTCG (and other Yahoo Lexington Group) postings? 
Will it be necessary to download the "Yahoo Mail" app to continue receiving postings?
Thank you for your feedback,

Dear Yahoo Mail Member,

Thanks for being a Yahoo app user. The Yahoo app is going away at the end of June, but we've moved everything you love about the app into our other Yahoo apps, along with even better features.

Want to keep using your Yahoo Mail? Download the Yahoo Mail app. It's got lots of new features like package tracking and one-tap unsubscribe from promo emails.

Love catching up on news and stories? Get the Yahoo News app, and sign in to keep your personalized news feed settings.

Make sure to switch apps before the end of June 2023 to ensure an uninterrupted experience. For more info, visit our help page.

Sincerely,
The Yahoo Mail Team
