This thread concerns Yahoo mail being read on the Windows 10/11 Mail app. That's not clear in many of the posts in this thread.

Original post:

How do you correct the email to be read able as it looks like scrambled words and cannot read

Some of my yahoo mail comes in unreadable state some e mails are fine

This has been going on for some time and it seems others are having same problem is there a solution?

* Edit: As of 3 December 2023 the information below is still true.

There isn't a fix for this. At present, the workaround is to read these messages at https://mail.yahoo.com with a browser.

    After much effort I made contact with a micosolf support person.

    Hard to believe but it is possible (you may have to pay so be careful what you ask)

    Bottom line. Micosolf is aware of the problem of coded emails in windows mail

    and are working to fix it.

    No date was given as to when fit will be done.

    (hard to understand a company that strong letting this problem to continue.)

    so untill the problem is fixed, read the various work arounds suggested in the cummunity

    I am not sure why email address have to be changed as one person suggested

    I am simply reading my emails from the web site of my email's base.

    I have several email address I have to open more then one site to get mail

    I don’t believe it’s Yahoos’s problem because I can read my emails perfectly on my iPhone and IPad. It’s only on my laptop with Microsoft. Very angry with Microsoft for providing no answers

    Microsoft positions outlook as the go to UI for all email systems. Therefore they should work collaboratively with Yahoo to figure out why emails being delivered from Yahoo to outlook are getting garbled. From my post alone it appears both companies are forcing users to either drop outlook to use a substandard UI from Yahoo or leave outlook altogether to use Gmail.

    Feels like both companies are losing customer and causing a lot of dissatisfaction and do not seem to care.
