I lost a yahoo account because I put in incorrect information (I claimed to be 99 year old female or some such thing) and then forgot the password. I never really did anything with my yahoo account though, so it doesn't matter other than I couldn't unsubscribe to some mailing list.

Lost my Yahoo account because it forwarded mail to another account and so I never logged in to it. Then Yahoo deleted it for inactivity ... No warning issued, just gone one day. So now I'm locked out of my YouTube account because it wants to send a verification code to the Yahoo address.

Fuck this bullshit.

You're in luck. Email forwarding with Yahoo is now a paid only feature.
