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.

I like the old basic version. Prefer my own password to sign in. also, only want email from my list of contacts
Password and sign in is better.
I do not like receiving emails from advertisers. I only want emails from people and companies I have put into my contact list.
It is too time consuming to weed all the junk mail out.275th ranked -
Give us back the old Yahoo Mail. This new version sucks! I kept bypassing the upgrade option but you forced it on me anyway.
Stop forcing new versions on us and making things harder to find as well as things slowing down when navigating. Give me back my old email. I did not have to jump through a bunch of hoops to access all my bookmarks. The new email sucks. Change for the sake of change is a bad thing. Change that improves things is good. Stop making changes that were not needed.

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.

Fix your SERVERS!
Verizon cannot spend $10 million to upgrade your servers?? This has been an ongoing issue with Yahoo Mail for at least 2 years now.
Bells and whistles are nice (it keeps your young programmers employed, I guess) but you need to get back to basics, or keep losing business to Google.369th ranked -

I do not like the new appearance
I don't know what happened, but yesterday my e-mail page suddenly looked different. I do not like the new appearance. It is disorienting.
There used to be lots of different options for how to personalize your page (different colors, etc) and now there are none. Please change it back to how it was two days ago. 12/6/1790th ranked -

Update your browser list
"Yahoo recommends you upgrade your browser to enjoy all the features in the new Yahoo Mail."
Do you realize that there are more than 3 browsers? Vivaldi (Chrome-based), Pale Moon (Mozilla-based)… In any case, add "not interested" checkbox to that warning or just stop showing it every time mailbox is loaded.

Give me back the old system, we don't like the new one, cant change fonts or colors. Bad choice in this selection.
Why do you think you are helping folks you only make it worse and worse each time you think we need something changed. No font changes or colors. Change it now. We older folks want the old way NOW. Are you uneducated people or ignorant to the world. Not everyone wants the system changed.

Yahoo, I hate, hate, hate, hate your newsfeed!!!!!!
Newsfeed is ATROCIOUS!!!!!! When I'm trying to browse down through the newsfeed, the new stories and pages feed soooooo slow that I'm constantly skipping past stories and have to decrease the font so small, I can barely read what's on the page. What MORON(S) designed this page? PLEASE DO A TOTAL REBOOT!!!!!!!

This new type of Account Key is not helping me.I wish to use my old type of account with password. I tried to disable the Yahoo Account Key but you don`t let me this option. I see a lot of Yahoo costumers complaining about this Account Key and you continue with this.How do you help us? Annoying you? In my case,I expect the return to the old formula. Thank you!
