Login to sbcglobal. net Email Takes Me to AT&T Login Page?
My 83-year-old mother has an sbcglobal.net email account from when she had AT&T years ago and she has always accessed her email via the Yahoo web site. Suddenly she is being taken to the AT&T login page, and is unable to login, because it says her password is wrong. We've tried multiple times and are now locked out. We also tried the password reset and it brings up security questions she never set up, so we cannot get past those, either. What the heck is going on?

The solution to my login problem was simple. Disable the ad blocker.
It may be that ATT doesn't want you using an ad blocker, I don't know. But when I've had the login problem recently, disabling the ad blocker instantly changes it. Then, once I'm in the email, I turn it back on.
Not sure what to say about this.
The business about ATT having compatibility problems with Macs seems bogus. Gmail never does.
My hunch is that ATT thinks it can improve profitability by disallowing ad blockers. Google doesn't work on this model, so there isn't a problem.
Who knows.

Re: ATTHelp/21 hours ago/Hi @Big_SBC_Forum, we are here to help.
I was trying to log into sub accounts of SBCglobal.net email using Chrome.
I tried SO many things: Cleared cache many times, changed password on main SBC account, added security key, Ad Blocker off, tried from
https://currently.att.yahoo.com/, or https://loginprodx.att.net/commonLogin/igate_edam/controller.do , incognito Chrome page, nothing worked and it has only gotten worse over the past few weeks.
Finally was able to login from https://more.att.com/mail/ which was noted on another thread.
it has been very frustrating to say the least.

Re: Hi @Big_SBC_Forum, we are delighted to hear you were able to access your email account.
Accessing SBC email via https://more.att.com/mail/ is NOT conisistent. It is hit and miss.
Ad Blocker off, cache cleared, etc.
Getting this error message:

I just wonder why turning off my ad blocker allows me to log in without a problem, but when it's on, I can't.
It's hard to imagine this happens without some intention, but I could be wrong.

There's a lot of money to be made betting a large company will fail, and it looks like Yahoo is going this direction.
Do you really believe such a company can't figure how to let its users log in to their email?
Note that Yahoo destroyed another huge part of its business, Yahoo Groups, as well as Yahoo Answers.
What could they be trying to do?
