    Every message I try to send is flagged as looking like spam and rejected. INCLUDING one with the single word 'test' to a gmail account.

    There appears to be no way to get out of this. 25+ year old account is now useless.

  4. Inline Gifs don't play

    When copying a gif into an email, they don't move. However, previously sent emails using the old version of Yahoo mail, the gifs move and are fine when forwarded.

    Allow copying of animated gifs.

    Thank you for the feedback. When composing an email you can use the animated Gifs that are located next to the “Send” button.

  5. new format and composing.

    Your new format *****. I try to compose and the words show up fine, but when you send it the words are all split up. Your new bright idea is as dim and most computer people are. I think I am going on over to google.

  9. I have been usiong yahoo over twenty years till now, but I have to say his new edition email is really poorly designed.

    When trying to replay to a sender, you would found it always replay to yourself. The email is not well arrayed, when click one of the earlier email and tried to replay to sender, you would often lost the mail. I understand the designer tried to compose everything in one folder but it seems that many things not so clear and not well designed. I would prefer the earlier edition. Hope you can change this soon.

    We are unable to replicate this issue. The contact suggestion box appears only if the cursor remained in the To field. Please make sure you click in the email body and type after that.

    If the problem still occurs please clear the browser’s cache and cookies or try using a different browser.

  14. can't sign in; "suspicious activity" cause I used same VPN as for >than 1yr. Alt. e-address says same; cell can't work-I live outside US

    Yahoo should have someone who know what they're doing to run the show; the current crew ain't making it.

  18. no way to COMPOSE SEND an email...in a color other than, one by one..NO setting

    So, most email web based services, let you 'set' a color, to compose your emails in, so that, ALL of your sent out emails, get sent, in a color. not black. yahoomail has no such setting.
    Only able to make certain portions of a email, or all of it, a color- one by one for THAT email. No way to make a 'setting' for all composed emails, to be in a certain color. that is not 2019 more like 1919

    You can change the color of your email text when comping by using the “Text color” button (3 colored dots) in the toolbar in the Compose window.

    Thank you!

    The Yahoo Mail Pro removes all ads from your Yahoo Mail experience! To manage spam emails, the best you can do is to report those messages as spam. (https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN3402.html) Depending on the number of similar reports, our Anti-Spam filter may take some time to react and start actively blocking them from reaching you.

    In the meantime, you can either create filters(https://help.yahoo.com/kb/mail-for-desktop/SLN15994.html?impressions=true) or block those email addresses.(https://help.yahoo.com/kb/mail-for-desktop/SLN16025.html?impressions=true)
