i tryed to email my friend that has a yahoo email address and it came back as mail failure?

Question

the notice stated that the email was discontinues or disabled but my question is is there any way to tell if it was disabled or weather it was discontinued any way to tell which one it was. and if so how can u find out.

Answer 1

he has to delete stuff from his inbox. it i too full. it's really stupid, but inboxes have a limit. Good luck.

Answer 2

First I would try and contact my friend in an other way than mail, like calling your friend over the phone. In case the mail address is right there are some possibilities why the mail came back.
* your provider might be having server troubles
* your provider might be testing anti-spam messages ...
The latter was the case with my provider: I read a story about a businessman sending an email to a client who never got it, because it was accidentally considered spam by the provider's spam guard.

Answer 3

If ur friends id is [e-mail]
and what u type can be [e-mail]
In this case the email is not delivered.
So type the correct domain spec: address..

Answer 4

if the username is correct - ask the helpdesk of yahoo.
also try by yahoo massenger to add him to your contact.
if the address is not correct - or other reason - you will get it.
anf if you will not succeed - and he is your friend, try to call and ask him...
try also other IM like icq etc.

Answer 5

four possibilties
1. you misspelled the address
2. it no longer exists
3. their email server was offline for maintenance
4. one of the packets didn't make it through because a server between you and your frien was offline

Answer 6

If they havent used it in a while they may need to reactivate it
