Re-login session expire message in Yahoo Mail ???
Re-login session expire message in Yahoo Mail ??? …
Why have I been receiving this particular message for the past 2 weeks, every now & then, when clicking on the subject line, so as to open the mail ???
The message would've made sense if I'd logged-in on my account & stayed inactive for long (i.e. not using it) but this happens EVEN THOUGH, I only log-in to my account ???
The Entire message is:
*****************************
Your login session has expired.
Why does my session expire?
Login sessions expire for two reasons.
1. For your security, your Yahoo! Mail session expires a maximum of twenty-four hours after you have logged in. ……………….
2. If you do not accept the cookies …………
Re-login to Yahoo! Mail
*****************************
Even if I click this very last link, I still come across the same message over & over again, regardless of whether I try opening the Inbox mails or the mails in Bulk folder ???
I tried using "stetrevor" recommendation, but I keep on getting asked for entering my "password".
In Microsoft Outlook, after setting everything as recommended by this user, I'm CONSTANTLY over & over again receiving a window labelled "Enter Network Password". I type it & press OK, it reappears & continues as such.
I can see a "red cross" next to "Log onto incoming mail server (POP3)" with status as "Failed", regardless of typing the correct password.
step one
check no-one else knows or is using your password
step two
set up yahoo with outlook expess to eliminate any errors
(to do this follow instuctions below)
step three

In order to use an email client to send and receive Yahoo! Mail messages, you must designate a new incoming (POP) mail server and a new outgoing (SMTP) mail server.
If you can't add new POP or SMTP servers, you'll need to change your current server settings. Write down your current settings first — you may need to revert to your original settings later if you decide to send and receive messages from your other email addresses.
Here are the basic server settings for Yahoo! Mail:
Incoming Mail (POP3) Server: pop.mail.yahoo.com
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com (use authentication, optionally use port 587)
Account Name/Login Name: your Yahoo! Mail ID (your email address without the "@yahoo.com")
Email Address: your Yahoo! Mail address (e.g., user@yahoo.com)
Password: your Yahoo! Mail password
Please note that if your client does not support SMTP authentication, you will not be able to use it to access your Yahoo! Mail messages.
HMMM. Do you want a conspiracy theory? I've got a conspiracy theory. I've had odd instances of these "session expirations" occurring when accessing controversial messages. I was suspicious of them and tried changing server by switching to a new window and doing the same thing with ca. at the start of the URL and without logging in again found the session had not expired, at all. It just wasn't being watched. The extra security layer was not in place on the other server.
All these additional log ins do is note who and when certain information is being viewed on certain servers. Key words or phrases set off monitor programs and the log in screen tags the instance.
You're being surveilled. But you should have realised that yourself, Mr Bond.
Yahoo uses time sensitive cookies. If you block cookies, I suggest you allow them for the current session only. On many browsers look under Tools or Preferences or Edit; then Privacy or Settings; then Cookies. OR, I suspect the time on yer computer clock is somewhat slower than what Yahoo has. Try resetting your time at Control Panel, Date & Time, Apply.
Need to know what browser you are using:
If you are using Internet Explorer browser:
click tools / internet options / privacy tab = default cookies setting is set to medium always or you can select accept all cookies / to make enable session cookies / click on advanced button / check override automatic cookie handling / first party and third party cookies should be accepted / and then check always allow session cookies / then ok / close internet options…
hope that helps……… Ü
