How can i remove my secondary yahoo address - Yahoo Mail

If you had a phone account or a secondary email address that you entered during Yahoo account setup, you should be able to regain access. Hopefully, you didn't use a business email address as a secondary address and then moved on to another job. That sort of secondary address is likely closed out by a corporation upon your departure. Yahoo help will provide guidance if you have either the phone or 2ndary email address as a backup.

Many times, you can recover a hacked or compromised Yahoo! account after using on-site password-recovery tools.
The process can take a few minutes to complete, but once you are finished you'll be back in your account.
If the password-recovery method does not work, then you can always contact the security group at Yahoo! Inc. via email.
Of course, you'll need access to a secondary email address to message the company's support team.

Type "login.yahoo.com" into the browser's URL address field.
You are greeted by the Yahoo! account sign in page.
Click the "I can't access my account" link in the box on the right side.
Select the "My account may have been compromised" option from the choice of sign in problems.
Click the "Next" button.
Type your Yahoo! ID and security code on the next page.
Click "Next" to continue.
Select an alternative email address to send a reset link to.
This only works if you previously added a secondary email address.
If not or the alternative email address has been tampered with, then select the "I can't access any of the above" option.
Click "Next."
Answer the security questions on the next few pages.
You will usually have to answer at least two security questions.
Enter a new password and repeat the password when prompted.
Click the "Next" button to finalize the password-reset process.

First of all login your yahoo id in yahoo mail >> www.yahoomail.comThen go to account settings and then their is a option on top "update your contact information".

2. Click the gear icon at the top of any Gmail page, then Mail settings, and open the Accounts and Import tab.
3. Click Change password recovery options in the 'Change account settings' section.
4. Select Recovering your password under Personal Settings. You may be prompted to re-enter your password to help verify your password and protect your account.
5. Click Add an email address if you don't have a recovery email address set already, or click the Edit link next to your current recovery email address to change it.

This can happen to all of us. If you have a secondary email address registered on the Yahoo! Mail account in your question, you can have Yahoo! send a new password for it to your secondary email address.

Yahoo! may ask you a series of questions based on information you provided when opening the account. This is to confirm your identity as the owner of the account:

1) Open the Yahoo! Mail login page

2) Click the link "I cannot access my account"

3) Follow the prompts for confirming your identity as required

I hope this helps!

I had the same problem 2 days ago, I tried a lot of things and finally got the the solution.
It was a DNS resolution problem
In my wireless netgear DG 834GT router settings (through IE), at the DNS address I unchecked "get automatic from ISP" then checked to use the primary DNS at 4.2.2.2 and secondary DNS at 4.2.2.3 ( I followed the Router's manual instructions )
Maybe u have to see in your Router manual what address u have to put for primary and secondary DNS?
Good luck, hope this will help

When you originally signed up for the account, I'm sure you had to give a secondary email address to confirm your account. If you click on "lost password", they will resend the last password you had to the secondary address.
