Yahoo mail... no way to Log Out?

**mojosingle** · 08-02-2011, 12:43 PM

I have the Android Market yahoo mail app. There appears to be no way to log out of your mailbox on this app?

Way to go yahoo. Ugh. Anyone figured this one out?

You have 2 options: remove the yahoo account sync (in "Accounts & sync") or in the apps manager you can clear data for Yahoo mail app.

Thanks Dan. I just ended up uninstalling and re-installing the app (about 60 seconds). Not sure if they have updated or changed it but now with the reinstall under the folder view there is an accounts link that goes to manage accounts.

Folder view > accounts > manage > add account - remove account

The colors have changed too. In doing research via google on this there were many folks complaining about the no log out feature. I guess in the past Yahoo has resolved the problem by telling people to feature. Does not seem to make any logical sense to have logging out of an app function like that. I will try your suggestions next time.

There is one more possibility:
Go to Yahoo Mail> options> more> report problem> and say that you can't log out.

You can't log out of your Gmail account either...at least if you can nobody ever showed me how to do that either...

Go to the add account screen and select the account and up above next to add is delete

Many thanks for advice ,,, I just dumped the yahoo mail app to be safe. However it is ridiculous to have an app for an important feature such as e-mail account that does'nt have a log out feature.
