Yahoo Mail allows multiple email addresses by having a main or base address and disposable addresses....I don't use Yahoo mail but this link will explain it better than I ever could and you will be able to sort out for yourself just what you need to do....

The one that I want as my main address is the one I use the most, but when I click onto 'my mail', the address comes up that I hardly use, so I have to sign out of that one and into the one I want.
I'm not looking for disposable email address's, just how to have the one I use most as my main address.
Sorry if I don't sound clear, I'm not very good at explaining things like this.
It's sounds as though when you signed in the subsidiary one you ticked the "Keep me signed in" box.

To remedy this, sign out, then sign in again to the main one, ensuring the box is ticked this time.

Have done that canary but for some reason it doesn't keep me signed in, so next time I turn my PC on, it reverts back to the other address.
Maybe the Yahoo catch all mailbox would work for you....

Thanks for the links commoner but I have had no luck.
I've sent an email to Yahoo to see if they can help me sort it.
