I got it back with a duplicate page, but I don't know what the red symbol is in the middle of the address. When I tied to copy and paste it, it then disappeared. Can you take over and try for me.?

And we will try to find their active e-mail.

Ok. what about my original error that reported my email address by mistake as phishing.
Dmytro Sywyi
Dmytro Sywyi Tech Expert & Writer
Most likely, ymail did not take this into account, since in order to block an account, etc. a large number of complaints are needed.
Please tell me, now you cannot send an email on your behalf or do emails on your behalf end up in spam?
Customer Reply
OK lets hope so. Not sure what you mean. should I send an email to myself to check?
Dmytro Sywyi
Dmytro Sywyi Tech Expert & Writer
Yes, you can. But most likely everything is okay.
Customer Reply
