Log in to your Turbify Mail account via a web browser to ensure you have full access to your email account settings and filter configurations.
Disable or Delete Misconfigured Mail Filters
Reviewing and adjusting your email filter settings is the most effective way to stop incoming messages from bypassing your Inbox.
Incorrectly configured mail filters are the most common reason why incoming messages in Turbify Mail (formerly Yahoo Mail) are delivered straight to the Unread folder instead of the primary Inbox.
A filter rule that lacks specific criteria or applies too broadly can inadvertently catch all incoming mail and route it away from your standard workflow.
Log into your Turbify Mail account and click on the 'Settings' gear icon located in the top right corner of the screen.
Click on 'More Settings' at the bottom of the quick settings panel, then select 'Filters' from the left-hand navigation menu.
Carefully examine your list of active filters. Look for any rules that are set to move messages to another folder or rules that apply broadly to all incoming mail.
Click the trash can icon or use the disable toggle next to the problematic filter to remove the rule. Future emails will now route to your Inbox correctly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why are my emails bypassing my Inbox in Turbify Mail?
The most common reason is a misconfigured mail filter that automatically moves incoming messages to another folder. Broad filters without specific criteria can inadvertently catch all incoming mail.
How do I move emails from the Unread folder back to the Inbox?
You can check the boxes next to the incorrectly routed emails in the Unread folder, click the 'Move' icon in the top toolbar, and select 'Inbox' to transfer them back to their proper location.
Are Turbify Mail and Yahoo Mail the same platform?
Turbify Mail is the new name for Yahoo Small Business. While it uses the same underlying technology and interface as Yahoo Mail, it is designed specifically for businesses managing their own domain emails.
Can I edit an existing filter instead of deleting it?
Yes. Navigate to Settings > More Settings > Filters, hover over the specific filter you want to modify, and click the edit icon to change the routing rules and destination folders.
