How do you delete a yahoo email account?

Answer 1

Just stop using it. It disappears in about 6 months.

Answer 2

The URL below directs you straight to the "Help Desk" info you'll need. If you scroll down, you should see a link for "Account Deletion", which will take you to where you can confirm deletion of your *entire* account, which is the only way to delete an email account. You'll have to log into your account first, as normal, but afterwards you should be able to create a new email address if you wanted to.
