Yahoo Mail Basic
Basic Mail provides base functionality like reading and writing messages, but does not include many of the advanced options. To use these features, we recommend upgrading to full-featured version of Yahoo Mail.

"UNWANTED EMAILS"
Develop an app unsubscribing unwanted emails that have entered the
spam or email inbox. The app should unsubscribe from anonymous emails that have no unsubscribe feature on them (website or an individual sender). An app that shuts down intruding personal emails from an unknown sender with a notification sent to a sender (source) that they will be cited for an invasion of privacy of an individual, a network, or a firm. Whether or not these sites were subscribed by Yahoo clients or not, there must be an option for Yahoo clients to shut down unwanted emails from automated mailing from…372nd ranked -
You need to show us how to delete our account, since your new "privacy" terms are terrible.
Your claim of protecting our privacy is a fraud. We should have an easy way to delete our account, and all of our email history, without having to fly to New York for "arbitration".

Yahoo just changed me to a lousy, old-fashioned, crummy email system. Give back to me what I had.

Yahoo has lost it's mind on what gets dumped into the spam folder.
Yahoo spam is a joke. I'm constantly having to go through my spam folder to mark mail I rely on as Not Spam. It's like five year olds are developing the ****.

Smart View vs. Basic
I have to use Basic Mail because the new Yahoo Mail lacks critical customization, such as removing Smart Views. What idiot came up with that

why are new, unread emails no longer in bold type please?
simples - new emails are now in the same type-face as old email that's been opened and read. Why are they now no longer logically in the original, bolder type-face?

Put it back like it was 2-3 years ago!
Put it back like it was 2-3 years ago! I tried the newest one-and hated it -now I went back to classic, but you've changed it, as well. I've had yahoo mail since 1999, but I will use someone else if you don't fix this soon. It didn't need "improving"!

THERE ARE so many ways you could improve mail
make it simple and make actual message larger, larger, largest. I basically hate yahoo mail but stick with because too busy right now to learn new. Put send down at bottom, eg. look at other mail sites and copy their many, many helpful features. most ridiculous & inexplicable is leaving BLANK SPACE on the right of message; WHY??? Enlarge trhedamn message!!! That's what we look at mail for, not BLANK SPACE on the right or wasted space anywhere. ARE YOU INSANE???? BLANK SPACE WHEN YOU COULD ENLARGE THE ACTUAL MESSAGE??? BLANK SPACE, YAHOO!!!??? CRAZY. You won't monetize selling BLANK SPACE!!!…

The quantity of Yahoo stock I own is inversely proportional to the amount of spam that gets through the filters.
Bring back the previous form of spam filtering. It worked much better than the current version.

add ability to tag emails, in addition to folders.
add ability to tag emails, in addition to folders. That way users don't end up adding multiple folders to keep emails organized.

Let me forward emails intact. Forwarding email sucks REALLY big ones with Yahoo Mail!!!
Let us forward emails intact. Quit ripping them apart when trying to forward emails. Why do I even have to post this? How stupid can Yahoo get when they "upgrade" (up your grade) your system?

How do notify the Yahoo Team about my SPAM/Phishing emails??? I want to help your team work on the security filters!
I think it would be a good idea for an option to send your Email Security Team (or bots) some things to look for in the emails to block them completely. So instead of seeing repeated emails in the SPAM folder, the servers could pretty much just BLOCK those SPAM/Phishing emails.
What do you think?
