  1. Add optional signature

    I remember at some point, using a email app that allowed you to use a "signature" that was an option you could choose to add to your email you would send,
    where you could attach to your a name or photo.
    I would love to see this option in my yahoo Email app.

  5. Signature

    Make it possible to do picture with your signature. Make it easy like gmail and other mail apps. I’ve had my email for decades and would hate to delete to go to a more modern email provider. I am a professional and cannot add my logo or anything to my yahoo email signature.

  8. Don't make 'improvements' without asking

    I was about to compose an email when another window popped up regarding seeing inbox whilst composing. Not fully understanding what it meant, I clicked on something and now can't see the full screen when composing. JUST LEAVE IT ALONE.

  10. For BCC recipient, "reply all" function should be by default disabled

    Dear Yahoo Team,

    I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to propose an enhancement to your email client's BCC (blind carbon copy) functionality to better protect user privacy and prevent accidental "reply all" incidents involving BCC'd recipients.

    As you may be aware, when a user is included in the BCC field of an email, their email address remains hidden from the other recipients. However, if a BCC'd recipient inadvertently clicks "reply all," their involvement in the conversation may be revealed, potentially leading to unintended consequences or embarrassment.

    To address this issue, I kindly suggest considering the addition…

    The file size limit shows the file size allowed for all documents combined, so you won't be able to add the files if they're all 5mb each. If the combined size is 5mb however, please contact us at help.yahoo.com or Twitter @YahooCare and we'll look into it.

    Currently, if a user doesn't log in to their account for 12 months (i.e., if an account is unused or dormant for 12 months), it is deactivated. Once this happens, emails that were in the inbox at the time of deactivation can no longer be recovered. We apologize for the inconvenience.

  14. why does it take so long to recieve an email. I.e i send the same message to a different email service and its recieved almost instantly.

    why does it take so long to receive an email. I.e i send the same message to a different email service and its received almost instantly. When sending same message to yahoo account it takes sever minutes, or several hours, and sometimes there is that lovely " I never received it at all". I still have un-received "test" emails.

    I experienced this twice, I send an email that took a while to type but was sent in one sitting, ends up in draft. It does not send.

  18. but now it just highlights those errors and does not c

    Spell Check issue. Yahoo mail used to auto correct obvious misspellings, but no longer seems to do so. Now they are highlighted, but not corrected. I would vastly prefer that my obvious errors be auto corrected.

    While Yahoo Mail doesn't have an internal spell checker, many browsers have a feature that looks for errors when you write any type of document in a web page. Please review your browser's settings for this option.

    If you’re accessing Yahoo Mail through the desktop web site or the app, then IMAP is not being used. If you’re using a non-Yahoo Mail app like Outlook or Thunderbird, then the IMAP settings should look like these:  help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN4075.html
