  1. REVERSE THE NUMBER OF DAYS FOR TRASH AND SPAM MAIL IS KEPT

    Please reverse the number of days trash and spam are automatically deleted. Currently trash is after 7 days and spam is 30. I would prefer spam to be removed as fast as possible due to hacking concerns so 7 is a better fit. Trash should be 30 days. I find that I go to my trash file to search for an email with important information that I need within a 30 day period.

  4. Let me switch off spam filter

    I want to switch off the spam filter. Not much gets directed to my spam folder, but what does is usually something critical like a hospital appointment. So I have to check the inbox and the spam folder every time I check mail.

  5. Old email delete setting

    There should be a setting to delete old emails over time. I have had to mass delete from 2018 and older. We should be able to regulate how long we want to keep read emails and they don't just sit there unattended or waiting for mass delete to happen.

  6. Stop ALL Spam

    When I get up, there are already about 400-450 messages in my spam folder. Then a message pops up and says something like, stop spam for 5.00 per month. Yahoo, Verizon, really, does 5.00 really make your bottom line " grow ? " Last week, I had a total of over 2000 emails in my spam folders. I have asked and asked for help to get rid of this problem, yet, I get no response. I bet that no one even reads these posts....they probably just go directly into the trash ! All of these SPAM mails are always the…

  8. Mail card

    The mail card feature in the mail app needs to be permanently deleted. It not only annoying, but completely pointless. It is absolutely absurd that it can not be disabled like any other notification

  9. Add to Yahoo settings; Default setting for "Stay signed in".

    Add to Yahoo settings; Default setting for "Stay signed in".
    I checked for this idea and the response from Yahoo product support is old, from 2018-12 and it simply says "Gathering Feedback". So why has this not been addressed yet? Why is there no setting for this in Yahoo settings menus? Why can't a browser cookie remember this setting?

    PLEASE I want to set the default for "Stay signed in" as un-checked! I want this disabled by default due to the securtiy risk. I'm so disappointed that Yahoo fails to see the security risk and the need to allow a…

  11. Filters - allow a filter for sender address greater than a number of characters. Spam has names with dozens of chars.

    I never want emails from senders named like this:
    mongvx5kcihzagip64lejsxbu2wyr97yhmqdtktcpfdslfbqzj@weibo.com
    Let me filter email address prefixes greater than a number of characters. For example, > 30 characters.

  18. Bring back IP login history when viewing 'recent activity' option in Security settings.

    Yahoo had this service back in 2016 when my email account was hacked. I'm shocked that you guys removed this.

    Gmail and Office 365 already provide these services.

    BRING IT BACK!
