Unable To Receive Emails On Iphone

For the past two days I have not been able to receive emails on my Iphone. I get a message "connection to server failed". Is this a Yahoo problem or my problem to fix. If mine, how do I fix it?

It's very possible you have too many emails in your inbox for you iphone to process new ones. You can try either deleting or archiving some of your inbox emails, then reset your phone and attempt to open your email again. Depending on your phone's memory, you should be able to access newer, unopened emails once you've reset the phone. I hope this helps :)
