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.

You are useing extortion to try to make me switch by making my email page take F O R E V E R to load and then tell me to load basic if it is too slow. Gmail is looking better and better all the time and I Hate Gmail.

Please allow a change to an invalid base name (disposable addresses)
I was going to try setting up a disposable address. The screen to set up the base name was confusing. After trying several variations, I wanted to see if the problem was just my selection of the base name, so I hit some random keys. It took my base name as "lsdjkf". It NEVER gave me a confirmation screen (aka "You are about to set your base name to 'lsdjkf', do you want to continue?") Now, it seems that there is NO way for me to change it. Is this correct? If so, this is stupid. Now I will never…

Some sickos started sending about 1,000 pornographic emails weekly. I want to be able to block these without opening them.
I want to block emails without having to open them. Also, investigations need to be done when offensive spam such as *********** is bombarded into one's email account.

The moving ads on the sides causes the email to freeze intermittently. This makes composing emails extremely difficult!
Get rid of the moving ads on the sides which cause the email site to freeze intermittently. Among other things, this makes composing emails extremely difficult! When I am trying to type an email, the keyboard freezes every time each ad loads. It takes forever to finally type a single word. Horrible!

The basic version is better
I use the basic version of Yahoo Mail (and not the "newest" version) for two reasons. 1. The list of my folders (and I have many) is more readable in the basic version. Less text cut off. And 2. When I have briefly used the "newest" version I had loads of pop-ups telling me about things I did want to know. So Basic is better.

Problem accessing email
I can't access my email from my phone or home computer. I don't know what is going on with your system but nothing is working to let me in to delete or view my emails unless I go to the basic email on my computer. But I'm SOL on my phone.
