It seems that Yahoo! has encountered a technical problem since year 2014 and they have removed the Automatic email forwarding feature afterwards.<br />
<br />

<blockquote>
Automatic email forwarding in Yahoo Mail<br />
Automatic forwarding sends a copy of incoming messages from one account to another.<br />
<br />
This feature is under development. While we work to improve it, we've <b>temporarily</b> disabled the ability to turn on Mail Forwarding for new forwarding addresses. If you've already enabled Mail Forwarding in the past, your email will continue to forward to the address you previously configured.

It seems to me that you need to install Yahoo mail app if you think it is too troublesome to use the Yahoo! webmail and Yahoo Mail has a very large mail storage quota of 1TB even for the free user.<br />

I mentioned that Yahoo says the feature is unavailable. &nbsp;Yahoo has had what, 2 years to &quot;fix&quot; this? &nbsp;This is deliberate to keep people using the yahoo service and getting advertising $$$. &nbsp; What is worse is this is an AT&amp;T account who has transferred the service to Yahoo when this feature used to be available, it's even on the AT&amp;T support website as doable.<br />
<br />
What I NEED to do is forward the account so I can use a good email service, in this case a office 365 account and a custom domain. &nbsp;I need the forwarding so that anyone using the old email address will still get the email to my new main email account.<br />
<br />
Thanks

<div>
That is what I have been setting up, was just hoping there was a better way.<br />
<br />
Thank you.

If you take my advice above, you also need to change the security setting of Yahoo account as follows.<br />
<br />
Allow apps that use less secure sign-in -&gt; Change from Disable to Enable.<br />

How about fetchmail....<br />
<a href="http://www.fetchmail.info/" rel="ugc">http://www.fetchmail.info/</a><br />
<br />
<br />
That can poll mailboxes and then forward them...<br />
That is if you still want to use Yahoo: &nbsp;<br />

Or any mail provider... Time to encrypt the contents of mail as well.... PGP or S/MIME

It seems this used to work. &nbsp;I have a old SBCGlobal.com account that ATT has moved to yahoo to manage. &nbsp;On ATT site it has steps to forward the account on yahoo, but yahoo has a different notice that the feature is unavailable. &nbsp;In today's world this is completely unacceptable, to trap someone like that.

Microsoft Outlook is a personal information manager from Microsoft, available as a part of the Microsoft Office suite. Although often used mainly as an email application, it also includes a calendar, task manager, contact manager, note-taker, journal, and web browser.

Outlook

Within Internet message handling services (MHS), a message transfer agent or mail transfer agent (MTA) or mail relay is software that transfers electronic mail messages from one computer to another using a client–server application architecture. A MTA implements both the client (sending) and server (receiving) portions of the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The terms mail server, mail exchanger, and MX host may also refer to a computer performing the MTA function. The Domain Name System (DNS) associates a mail server to a domain with mail exchanger (MX) resource records containing the domain name of a host providing MTA services.

Email Servers

An email client, email reader or more formally mail user agent (MUA) is a computer program in the category of groupware environments used to access and manage a user's email. A web application that provides message management, composition, and reception functions may internally act as an email client; as a whole, it is commonly referred to as webmail. Likewise, email client may be referred to a piece of computer hardware or software whose primary or most visible role is to work as an email client. Email clients can also have other systems, like calendars, notes and contact managers.
