Good morning, I have used Outlook for years and now Xfinity no longer supports Outlook and they have put me into Yahoo. How can I continue with Outlook without changing my email address?

    Hi @Chuck Ridlon

    You should be able to continue using Outlook without changing your email address. Although the mailbox is now hosted by Yahoo, you can add the existing Comcast/Xfinity address to Outlook as a Yahoo account.

    In Outlook, select Add Account, enter your full Comcast/Xfinity email address, and choose Yahoo as the provider if prompted. Complete the Yahoo sign-in and permission steps to connect the mailbox.

    Before doing this, make sure you can sign in to Yahoo Mail using the same Comcast/Xfinity address. If Yahoo does not accept the account, you will need to contact Xfinity or Yahoo because they now manage the mailbox and authentication.

    I hope my answer helps. Have a lovely day
