Anybody having trouble signing into yahoo mail?

When I sign into yahoo I click on mail then I get a message that says sorry session has expired. Then to protect account I need to sign in periodically. So I do that and keep getting the above message.

    Seems to be a glitch to do with the new interface. You can access the old basic mail by adding "/b" in the address bar after neo

    for eg, the url right now in my address bar is https://us-mg4.mail.yahoo.com/neo/launch

    add /b after neo and make it https://us-mg4.mail.yahoo.com/neo/b/launch and you can access your mail till yahoo fixes the problem.

    This was caused by a minor hiccup in our system and did not last very long. Your account should have been working normally again not long after posting this. If you continue to experience this problem, it is most likely a problem with the cookies set in your Web browser. I recommend reading the following Yahoo! Mail Help article "Basic Browser Troubleshooting" for the best help resolving this problem. You can find the link to it below.

    I have been getting the same thing. I thought that if I closed off the internet and sign in again, it would help, but it is still going on.

    I am also hoping that it's temporary. I am hoping to contact Yahoo via e-mail and see what they have to say.

    Problem is from yahoo's end. I changed my password, cleaned my browser history, ran the antivirus. Still nothing.

    Same here, not finding any answers. I have reset my password twice. Oddly enough I have no problems via android phone

    Thanks for the tip on using the old interface. The new one that they force down our throats is an absolute disaster and I hate it. It doesn't even display properly on my Firefox, IE, and Chrome. And now this wonderful problem today.

    Yep - same issue - tried rebooting, reloading, different browers -- no problem on my Android though. I would assume Yahoo is aware . . . but one never knows.
