Ever since the most recent upgrade, I cannot log into my ymail account (Yahoo.com), from Opera. Every time I attempt to I get a "rate limited" message.

I can log into yahoo mail from other browsers, just not my Main... Opra browser. I do not want to move to Chrome or some other browser application. Please help!!!

Does it work in a private window?

@burnout426 hey thanks for your reply. What do you mean by a private window?

@tfoland Right-click on the link or bookmark and choose Open in private window.

@tfoland Also see https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/9845881?hl=en#zippy=%2Chow-incognito-mode-works for more info. Opera calls it a private window instead of an incognito window.

In addition to right-clicking on a link to open it in a private window, you can goto the menu button at the top left of Opera and choose "New private window". You can also use ctrl + shift + n to open a new private window.

@tfoland I've tried everything, private window, VPN, no VPN, etc.. nothing works.. I cannot launch Ymail.com from Opera any more. I continue to get rate limited.

@tfoland temporarily log out of Yahoo on all browsers (and mail apps if applicable) on all devices and then try things again.

Then in Opera, in a normal window, you can goto the URL opera://settings/content/all, type yahoo.com in the search field and click "Delete displayed content". Then, you can goto the URL opera://settings/clearBrowserData and clear "cached images and files" for all time.

Then try things.

If you can log into your Yahoo account on some other device or browser, you can try going to https://login.yahoo.com/myaccount/activity/recent-devices/ and signing out all other devices.
