  1. mail new tab

    When I click on the mail icon in the upper right corner of the Yahoo homepage it opens the email page in a new tab. It's annoying to have a new tab open every time I go to check my email.

  2. This is a plea for you to bring back GIFs in yahoo mail. A GIF said and showed emotions one sometimes can't express in words.

    Emotions like Joy, Sadness, Miss You or Happy Birthday! Emojis are too small to get the right effect. Why did you stop? I never was sent a survey about keeping or not. If some people complained, I'm sure there were many more that didn't complain. I tried inserting GIFs from the net but they didn't "move" in the emails I sent. Please bring them back!

  3. Prevent daily useless ads emails

    Yahoo mail has taken the ability to block unwanted garbage mail from coming in our mail folders. We should have unlimited ability to block unwanted users from sending our yahoo id's mail. I have about 25-40 useless emails coming to my id EVERY DAY. That takes up mail server space. There are countless advertisement groups that send useless emails out to millions of yahoo mail servers. I would think YAHOO would want to cut down on this useless mail. But I am sure Yahoo is being paid to let this happen. I am think very seriously changing my Yahoo Id…

  4. Regarding email changes

    I don't know what you're trying to accomplish on Yahoo email, but I definitely don't like the changes! It is now much more difficult to find emails and their responses because you create a continuous "string" in one email. Any response to an email sent is on that string and now in the sent folder. Are you trying to make things more difficult for users? Go back to the way it was!!!!

  5. Annual Subscription for Yahoo Mail Plus

    I would be more inclined to subscribe to Yahoo Mail Plus if you had the option to subscribe for the full year instead of having to worry about a month to month payment.

  6. I have tried to login into my curtday53t@yahoo.com but it says that the password was changed. I did not change it.

    I can't login into my curtday53t.yahoo.com email because it says that the password was changed. But I didn't change it. And I can't get Yahoo help without signing on to a premium service that I don't want

  8. Banner ads in email are disgusting. Weighing an ad blocker vs. leaving yahoo.

    I presume you're trying to force people to pay for basic email use by forcing that shameful banner across the bottom that eats up precious real estate I NEED TO READ! I've been using yahoo mail for as long as I can remember and this is the first time I've considered jumping ship. Sad.

  10. Why do I have to repeatedly verify my access to my email? Sometimes thre or more time a day!

    I have to verify my identity everytime that I open my Yahoo account using my computers browser. Sometimes three or more times in a day even if I leave the tab open. This is becoming very frustrating to me. This has been going on for over a month now. what's the fix?

  11. Yahoo email recent changes

    Yahoo Mail Plus subscriber (since it became available), and Yahoo mail member since the day accounts became available in October 1997 here...

    I used to be able to send an email to archive with "d" "e" - why did that go away?? The command wasn't replaced by any other action and requires me to use my mouse to click "archive" rather than using my keyboard.

    Also, since your recent change, after clicking a link to open a new tab I need to use the mouse to click "delete" instead of just hitting my delete key. Why would you do this??

  14. Contact list sorted by last name

    How about this radical new idea? Allow the contact list to be sorted by last name! I'm 75 years old and have never seen a personnell directory sort only by first names. Have you ever heard of a phone book? Everybody had one in their home who had a telephone from about 1920 to 2015. Go to a library and you can actually look at one and see it it totally organized and sorted by LAST name! How about assigning on of your hot shot computer gurus to add a line of code to allow sorting contacts by last name?…

  18. I frequently copy email addresses. Every time I do so I have to switch back to the Basic mode. Is there a more direct way to do it?

    I frequently copy email addresses. To do that I have to switch to Basic Mail and then switch back to Yahoo Mail. Would you put back such a basic function in Yahoo Mail?

  20. Recipients v. To

    Forever the "To" field was a constant in Yahoo Mail. Simple. To the point. Now when you click elsewhere, the name of the field changes to Recipients.

    Why the change? Why use a $1 word when a 5-cent word works?

    The changing back and forth is a odd, annoying UX thing as well.

    What prompted the change?

    If it ain't broke, don't fix it!
