Is Gmail the only usable email service for new members sign-up?

Mohamed. · Apr 29, 2020

Hello!

So I tried using my Yahoo mail to sign up, waited for a few hours for the confirmation email to arrive and nothing. I went back and resent the confirmation email and waited till the next day and still nothing. Finally I caved and changed my email address to my Gmail and the confirmation email arrived instantly!

I really want to go back to my Yahoo mail. Is there a technical issue regarding using emails other than Gmail?

Thanks in advance.

Yahoo wasn’t working for me either. Switched to gmail email and it worked right away. Just wanted to let someone know.

The reason many forums block yahoo addresses is because they are commonly used by spammers.
