Help, my yahoo mail is now forwarding to a dead email address?

Yesterday, I was prompted to try a new email background. I did, and ever since my email is being forwarded to a dead email address that I don't have access to.

I may have tried yahoo plus email at one time, which does have mail forwarding, but not now. It's like changing the background gave me some of those very old yahoo plus email settings, but now that I don't have yahoo plus email, I cannot change it back.

    Actually Yahoo is now making the features like Autofowarding of emails and POP access available to free accounts, as long as you've underwent to change that also brought in themes. Check if you see the autoforwarding setting in your mail options.

    Arthur is right - go to Settings->Accounts and click Edit next to your primary account. The forwarding option is at the bottom
