Multiple Mail addresses

You can add another email address to your default Yahoo email address.. Consider this case : you created a profile say shahrukh_khan and now if someone sends email to this profile, the email will bounce because there is no Inbox of that address. So if you want to receive email on this address, you can just create another email address within your default Yahoo email address. (You can create only one extra email address on one Yahoo ID) .. To do this, Click on this linkOr-> Sign in to Yahoo Mail, Click on Options on the top right.-> Under the Mail Management header, Click on Mail Addresses.-> Now in the next screen, Click on Get Started link under Extra Email Address header.-> Choose whatever address you want and click on Check availabilty.-> If its available, you’ll be taken to an Image verification and then you will have another email address to your Yahoo Id.
You can send emails from this address… Whenever you compose a mail, you’ll get a dropdown list from where you can select the From address. .

Multiple Profiles

Did you know you can create as many as 6 profiles of your Yahoo Id ..? This is like having 6 aliases of your one Yahoo Id.. So, for different people, you can use different profiles for communication and nobody can find out your Yahoo email address if you use a different profile.So, to create a new profile, you have to goto this link…Sign in if you arent already Signed in to Yahoo. ..Now click on Create New Public Proflie link and you’ll be taken to a profile creation page where you can enter the details .. You can create profiles of different genders too .. So if you wanna fool your friend, you can create a girl’s id and chat with him .. .. When you sign in to Yahoo Messenger, You’ll see a drop down list of your profiles with which you can send the messege .. You can login with any of these profiles with your Yahoo password..
