What do you mean by custom one? If you want to remove the "jp" you'll have to either change your location on your account or create a new one. That's all I know :?

If so, then there's something wrong with your account. Maybe it has been spammed by a bot or hacked by a person. I hope that isn't the problem, because it's really bad. One suggestion: change your account password.

Start by:
Going to Yahoomail.com and log in with your email address and password.
If it makes you do any captions, or anything, do them.

Select "Other" in email setup

Name: Type in your name
Email: Type in your FULL and COMPLETE email address

"Protocol" use IMAP (NOT POP!! POP is a old way of using this type of email service and does not work well anymore)

For Incoming Mail Settings
Host Name: imap.mail.yahoo.com
Username: Type in FULL and COMPLETE email address
Password: Your password. It is CaSe SenSitIvE

Outgoing Mail Settings
Host Name: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Username: Type in FULL and complete email address
Password: Your password

Hit OK

These are the generic IMAP settings for regular yahoo email. And, by yahoo email I mean anything you can sign into using Yahoomail.com's log in screen. It works with: Yahoo.com, Ymail.com, Rocketmail.com, SBCGlobal.net, ATT.net, and a couple others :)

This should work regardless, unless you DO have other account issues going on.
