Yahoo mail security features

SPAM ALERTS  

Yahoo mail detects emails that look like spam and notifies you by sending pop up, but after reviewing it, if it seems ok to you, you can mark it as safe, or otherwise, you can click on its spam. After you have selected that particular email as spam, Yahoo will take care of that sender.

REPLY TO ALERT

Yahoo detects that the mail that you will be receiving is not from the email address to which you were sending emails, so in this situation, Yahoo notifies you by sending a notification. If you have enabled the reply-to function, then there is no need to worry, but if you have not helped it, disable it immediately and then change your password.

TWO FACTOR AUTHENTICATION

Two-factor authentications are one of the best security features that Yahoo mail provides to safeguard your account from various threats. When two-factor authentication is enabled, you must enter the code sent on your mobile device after entering a password. So if anybody has your password, then he/she will not be able to enter your account.

Conclusion

These are some of the safety features that yahoo mail provides for its users to secure their accounts. For more account-related safety features, you can contact Yahoo technical support, and they will help you secure your account.
