How do I change my email address to match my yahoo ID?

1 comment so far


A long time ago I set my email to be different from my id. I want to change it back to the original email address, in order to match my yahoo id. I have tried simply creating a extra mail address to go with this account but of course it says its taken. (its mine already). How can I switch back to using my original email address that matches my id?

    You cannot change your ID name or address.
    You can cancel the old account and open a new one with the desired information. However, if you used that name in an old account that is now closed, you can never use it again.
    You can however open a new account with the name slightly changed.
    For instance, instead of***, use***, or***,etc.
