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.

Old Version
Don't even bother. There is absolutely nothing you or anyone else can do to improve upon the basic(old) version. Everything you have done to date is visually distracting and visually inefficient. If the designs you have encumbered your customers with were translated into traffic flow floor plans for a retail or restaurant environment you would be fired on the spot. Word... otherwise, you're doing a great job. Smile!

Stop switching me to the new version without my permission
Do not automatically change my old version to the new version. And do not change it after I have switched it back to the old version over 40 times. Also, your details on how to keep my old version from switching to the new version are not effective. I do not have the drop down menu items that you say that I need to have in order to make the old version permanent.

Aside from your blatant political bias, your "Big Brother" approach to my (our) account is astonishing. Emojis? Font? Themes?
Stop acting like a Government agency. Don't force your fake news and account changes down our throats on a regular basis. Get back to acting like a conscientious company.

How can you improve the basic version of Yahoo mail, you can leave it just like it is. Plain old basic version.
Basic Yahoo mail is just fine. Quit forcing the change on me to a new look and feel periodically when I log in. Your newer versions are ****. An inbox and the ability to have folders to move stuff to is all you need in email.

The "go back to old version" option under Account Info does not restore the functions of the old version.
In the first place, the information given in "help" was not accurate, as far as I could tell. I couldn't find Steps 3 and 4 as described in the directions, in which I would be asked for my reasons for wanting to switch back to the old version.
Nothing happened until I clicked "Go". As soon as I did that, the dialogue box closed and my screen went back to my Inbox.
Although I'm supposedly in the old version, I still can't fill in the bcc list of recipients to an email directly from a sub-list in my Contacts. I…369th ranked -

Please make deleting messages from a specific sender easier.
Please make deleting messages from a specific sender easier. Something like Micro***t mails "sweep" feature. Sorting, searching, then clicking box after box to select messages to delete takes forever. Cant I just select one message then have an option to "select all from sender" then delete? With the sorting option it allows me to group messages by sender by I still have to deal with clicking every single message one by one so I select the messages from the one sender. Its time consuming. Please make it easier
