yahoo emails say they are out of date

Let me suggest you to remove then add your Yahoo account which is configured to the Windows Mail. Please follow the steps below to remove your account:

• Open your Windows Mail
• Click the Settings
• Select Manage account then click your email
• Click Delete account then select Delete

After doing the steps above, add again your account and see if the issue still persist.

Please let us know how it goes for us to assist you further.

 

Yahoo email

This may not help but certainly worth a try, I've moved to Firefox, tried Edge for maybe a year, it just continued to be not ready for prime time. AFAIK you still can't set a new tab to open as the active window in the foreground. MS has made browsers for years and Edge seems amateurish and clumsy, they made this one for touch devices.

FF is most like IE which was my preferred browser. Anyway, a link to thread is below and a quote of the post within that thread with the workaround.

Forwarding Yahoo Email on Android Phone?

yeah i know what you mean, and assumed that would be a problem.
anything is possible. this is unlikely. there is no way to just change settings and make that happen.

you could set yahoo forwarding to send the email to gmail, i assume, no problem.
gmail MIGHT allow "from" field spoofing, check out google labs if it is not in the regular options.

other than that, short of some complicated scripting i don't see it happening.
