Automatic forwarding feature sends a copy of incoming mails from your Yahoo Mail account to another email address. This feature has been available for all Yahoo Mail users for a long time. Yesterday, Yahoo has notified to its users that it will discontinue this feature for free users.
From January 1, 2021, automatic forwarding of emails from your Yahoo inbox to a third-party email account will no longer be available for free Yahoo Mail accounts. However, you can upgrade to Yahoo Mail Pro or subscribe to Access + Forwarding to use the auto forwarding feature.
We regularly evaluate our products and services against current security standards and have decided to remove this feature to help ensure free Yahoo Mail accounts remain secure. The change will help us focus on building the best new features and experiences for our Yahoo Mail users.
