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.

  1. Fix the ******* mail instead of breaking everything you own!

    I had to switch to "classic" style because all the **** ads and trash you pile into the mail page bloats the ****** till it can't fit through a hanger. And then the mail randomly switches itself back to "new" style for a couple days before going back to what I actually set it to. The same with everything else owned by yahoo, it gets bloated, useless **** crammed in that no one ever uses and causes everything to fall apart, but instead of fixing the initial problem and getting rid of the bloat, you add more to it while…

  2. If I block an email shouldn't it work? Well it doesn't! I still get emails from blocked email addresses already added to the system.

    If I block an email address I shouldn't continue to get them right? But I do from numerous email addresses I've blocked! Yahoo is really slipping on service. They used to be really good now they're not. I'm taking it under the last CEO that's the reason all this **** with Yahoo happened and also the reason I'll never ever pay for your service. You're no better than the other free email services. All are rated the same in my book - F!

  5. 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.

  15. I agree with #!. I HATE this stupid version of Yahoo mail. I can't change the font and forwarding anything with pics is useless. It sucks

    This whole new Yahoo SUCKS. Can't change fonts on email. Can't forward anything with a picture because it doesn't show up. Why do you guys keep screwing up something that works? At least we could go back to the old version before, but now we're stuck. I'm getting ready to move to a different email provider because I get ****** off every time I do anything on here now.

    Why am I just getting an email that was dated at 7:03 am this morning? It is now 5:07 pm. You claim to be top rated Internet but this is unacceptable. This has happened several times. Instead why don't you worry about all the spam that I keep getting in my inbox.

  20. getting email on time.

    What is wrong with your system? I am getting email that was sent on Sunday pm, here it is Wednesday. Get your act together. Also why is yahoo always slow , not responding, among other things. This has gotten to be the worse interest service ever.
