Tell us how we can improve your Yahoo Mail – Basic experience. The more specific your feedback, the more useful for us. While we can’t respond to every suggestion, we review regularly and take them very seriously. Our Guidelines have more on how you can give great feedback.

I had to make a sudden trip to Philippines due to some urgent matters to help my sick sister, she was diagnosed with (Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia) a type of Blood Cancer and had been undergoing treatment lately. The news of her illness arrived to me as an emergency.

  11. I used to be able to see 50 emails on home screen now you changed it to 25, why?

    I used to be able to pick if I wanted to see 200, 100, 50 or 25 emails on my home screen. Now you changed it to 25. It's now takes me all day to delete emails since I now can only delete 25 at a time. Bring back the option to let me pick how many emails I want to see at a time.

  13. Add Chromium as supported browser

    Chromium is a faster web browser than Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Explorer, Tor, etc. Yahoo! mail is distinguished by its lack of versatility when it comes to supporting other web browsers, it makes the platform rigid against other email providers, and ultimately it may also cost Yahoo! mail lose clients.

  18. I am being spammed to death and Yahoo is supporting it

    I am being spammed to death and Yahoo is supporting it. I unsubscribed a week ago, now they are spamming me 2 or 3 times per hour. They are from a Yahoo domain. They use Yahoo as an ISP. I complained to Yahoo. Now in all me forwards sent to abuse@yahoo.com the body of the spam has been removed, by Yahoo! The evidence is gone! Yahoo did it! I am quite disturbed and STILL GETTING SPAMMED!
    I am switching to gmail.
