Lenovo computer (microsoft) doesn't let me use Yahoo.com smoothly
Yahoo asks for a verification email address to send notices to. My verification address is on outlook. When I sign in Firefox for Yahoo I get a message that my verification email has expired. I have repeatedly resent the verification email. If I sign on to yahoo on Internet Explorer, I do not get this message. Microsoft gives a message that I should use IE for smooth operation.
