Yahoo Mail Basic

← Yahoo Feedback


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.

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.

  1. 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.

  2. How about investing in a dictionary? I have to go to other search engines to spell words because Yahoo Mail is borderline illiterate.

    Buy a dictionary. Yahoo Mail doesn't have a very large vocabulary. Why have spell check if it doesn't know how to spell the words?

  4. Include more options when completing the Restore Request (i.e. "Saved Draft Missing")

    Include more options in Yahoo dropdown list for us to check when completing the Email Restore Request (i.e. "Previously Saved Draft Missing"). If this is not implemented, how does Yahoo tech know the issue relates to a missing "PREVIOUSLY SAVED" DRAFT? Also, Yahoo needs to clarify what their definition of an email is (i.e. does it Include "draft"?)

  8. Too Much Spam Mails.

    Too much spam mails. I never subscribe to any mailing list or news letter.

  15. Fix browser recognition

    Yahoo Mail is not recognizing Vivaldi, a browser built on the Blink rendering engine, which is also used in Google Chrome. I strongly suspect Vivaldi can render Yahoo Mail just fine, and I'm not going to "upgrade" to one of the big three browsers just for Yahoo Mail.

  20. It wasn't broken

    If it ain't broke don't fix it. This has been a saying for years and yet you can't even follow this simple rule. Bring back the old email and quit trying to pigeon hole us into using a browser we don't want.
