* Moderator note: This thread is about Yahoo mail on the Windows 10/11 Mail app.

* Another Mod note: As of June 25, 2023...There isn't a fix yet. The workaround is to read these mails with a browser at https://mail.yahoo.com 

Same with AOL. Login at https://login.aol.com/and find Mail on the page and read mail on the web.

Since the last Microsoft update some of my Yahoo emails are coming this scrambled, like code, and unreadable. I can read them on my Iphone but not my laptop so I feel this is an update issue. Is there a way to fix this or is Microsoft working on a fix and new update?

    There have been reports that removing the Yahoo account from the Mail App then recreating it helped a user or a few users. That didn't work for some who tried it.
