Transitioning to Yahoo Mail with an Existing & Matching @comcast.net Yahoo account

Hi. I just found out that all @Comcast.net emails are transitioning to Yahoo Mail. I haven’t received my email invitation yet but I have an existing Yahoo account with a username of *****@comcast.net that matches my username for my Comcast email. How will the transition work for me if they are the same exact username but obviously different passwords? I might be a minority here in this. Just wondering if there’s something I can do to make sure the migration works correctly. I’ve had issues with my Comcast email for years saying the inbox is full (storage) and I won’t receive new mail. A lot of emails never arrive in my inbox so I’m eager to get the migration completed to avoid this problem.

Were you meaning you have a Yahoo mail account whose username matches the username of your comcast.net account [ xxxxx@yahoo.com & xxxxx@comcast.net ] where the x's are identical?  If so, no need to worry.  Your comcast.net account will transfer over exactly as it is here.

As far as your email storage problems here, you can sign in to webmail and click on the gear icon to see how much storage you've used, and from there you can delete emails as needed.

sarax3 Thank you for posting on our community forum so we can answer your questions about your Email transferring over to Yahoo and thank you @Again for jumping in to help :). Your Email address will remain unchanged, so it will still end with comcast.net. You don't have to worry if you have the same Email address but with yahoo.com as the domain.
