How do you delete a mailbox from your Yahoo app on the iPhone?
I have an iPhone 8 running the latest version of the yahoo mail app (4.37)
In the app, I can either "Add another mailbox" or add another account thru "Manage Accounts"
I initially added my account as a mailbox through the "Add another mailbox" link. It added my account/mailbox but didn't load all my emails. I then clicked "Manage Accounts" and added my account.
Going thru "Manage Accounts" to add my account shows all my emails. Now, I want to delete the mailbox that was created. However, I can't seem to do so. I even went through "Manage Accounts" to delete the account, hoping that it would remove both the mailbox and account but it didn't.
I followed the directions on Yahoo's website but those instructions didn't work
I also tried adding my gmail account (as a test to delete it) thru the Yahoo mail app as a mailbox. I'm running into the same problem, I can't delete my gmail account/mailbox either.
Hopefully someone can help me. Thanks.
UPDATE: Deleting the app didn't work. The mailboxes are still here. I also tried going to my Iphone Settings->Yahoo Mail->Reset All Accounts. Also didn't work. Both my gmail account and that rogue yahoo account is still there.
From Yahoo's site:
- Tap the Menu icon Image of the Sidebar menu icon..
- Tap Manage Accounts.
- Tap Account info below the Yahoo Mail account that's linked.
- Tap the X beside the linked account. <- I assume you did this, and it did not delete.
- Tap Unlink to confirm.

If the account doesn't go away via the Yahoo delete instructions, I think you should look for sending a report to Yahoo.
