# Forward Yahoo Mail to Molin

> Set up Yahoo Mail forwarding so customer emails reach Molin AI.

This guide covers Yahoo Mail. Yahoo's forwarding only delivers *new* emails after it's set up — past emails aren't backfilled.

<Warning>
  Yahoo Mail's automatic forwarding requires a **Yahoo Mail Plus** subscription and isn't offered in every locale. AOL Mail (owned by Yahoo) doesn't expose automatic forwarding at all per [AOL's
  current help](https://help.aol.com/products/new-aol-mail) — if you're on AOL Mail, use a Gmail/Microsoft 365 account as the forwarding source instead, or upgrade to Yahoo Mail Plus on a Yahoo
  address.
</Warning>

## Prerequisites

* A Yahoo Mail Plus account
* Your **Molin inbound address** from the email setup wizard

## Yahoo Mail

The exact path differs slightly between the new and older Yahoo Mail interfaces:

1. Open [Yahoo Mail](https://mail.yahoo.com/) and sign in
2. Click the **More options** icon (or the **Settings** gear, depending on UI version) in the top-right, then choose **Settings**
3. In the older interface only, click **More Settings** at the bottom of the panel
4. Choose **Mailboxes** from the left sidebar
5. Click your primary account name under **Mailbox list**
6. Scroll to **Auto-forwarding** (newer UI) or **Forwarding** (older UI) and paste your Molin inbound address into the field
7. Click **Verify** — Yahoo sends a verification email to your Molin address
8. In the Molin [Inbox](https://molin.ai/app/inbox), open Yahoo's email and click the verification link
9. Back in Yahoo settings, the forwarding status flips to **Verified**. Save changes

## Verification

Yahoo forwarding only activates after you click the verification link. The Molin email setup wizard at [molin.ai/app/channels/email](https://molin.ai/app/channels/email) surfaces incoming verification emails as a clickable confirmation button — use it for the fastest path.

## Reference

For Yahoo's own documentation, see [Enable automatic email forwarding in New Yahoo Mail](https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN36684.html) (newer interface) or [Enable automatic email forwarding in Yahoo Mail](https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN29133.html) (older interface). AOL Mail has no equivalent feature per the [AOL Mail Help hub](https://help.aol.com/products/new-aol-mail) — its automatic forwarding section is absent and the help search returns only filter-based organisation, not destination forwarding.
