migrate yahoo mail china to yahoo mail us? - Charlie - 06-12-2013 06:19 PM

hi,
I have an email account at yahoo.com.cn and recently received an alert when I logged into the account which told the yahoo china mail service would be shut down and the procedure of migrating to yahoo us. As I was busy doing something else, I didn't do the migration at that time. but now I can not find the info again, could any one tell at where I can find the info?
thanks in advance.
many thanks to Trooper63 and Darcy Fitz provide your answer to the question, especially Trooper63 listed a lot of information on yahoo service. although these info do not directly solve the problem, thanks anyway.
I find the info after spending quite a few time searching the web, the link listed below for reference to people who have same issue as I do.

on this page, yahoo gives several migration options, the first one is:

Migration options

1. You have the option to migrate to Yahoo! Mail offered by Yahoo! Inc. in the United States. If you would like to use Yahoo! Mail offered by Yahoo! Inc. going forward, please follow these instructions to migrate your account.

but the problem is after clicking the link attached to "follow these instructions to migrate your account.", it redirect to china yahoo mail login page rather than the procedure to migrate to yahoo us as expected, seems the lin
