Hi, I've had my S3 for about three weeks. I'm using the stock email for my yahoo mail. Set it up using "other" vs Yahoo icon. Email is working fine with the exception of my peronal folders not syncing. Inbox, trash, drafts, and sent all sync fine. However, none of the emails that are in my personal folder are showing up in their respective folders with the exception of emails I moved from the inbox to the folder from the S3. The sync swirls but no emails come in. Tech support says it is a Yahoo issue. Previously I had a Fascinate running ICS and had no issues syncing folders. I am still running ICS on my Galaxy tablet and have no issues syncing or see emails in my folders via the stock app. This leads me to believe their is an issue with Yahoo syncing and Jelly Bean. Anyone have any ideas? Can't get a live person at Yahoo to ask and the vendor Samsung tells me I shouldn't see any personal folders in the stock email and whoo hoo that I do so take what you got or download the Yahoo app.
Have you tried deleting and readding the email account? I would try that but if still not working you may have to look into the yahoo app. I personally like the stock email better but yahoo is just not syncing up like it used to so the app may have to be the workaround.
Yes, I've removed and re-added my yahoo account about five times and no luck in syncing the personal folders. I'm wondering if it is a VZW and yahoo issue or JB and yahoo issue. Leaning toward the later as my tablet I mentioned above is wifi only running ICS and I have no issues syncing my Yahoo folders whereas with my new Galaxy S3 running JB I can't. This is quite frustrating. Not sure why the would take that functionality away in the latest Android version.
