  1. block domains

    Blocking domains is working great at eliminating spam, frankly I am surprised that obvious spam gets past yahoo spam filters. i would like to have more than 3 domains to block.

  2. Mailboxes

    I deleted an old Google mailbox so I could add a newer version. However, when I try to add the new version, it says for security reasons it is blocked? Why was it ok before and not now??

  3. Please add automatic forwarding email option to new email addresses for Australia (old yahoo email address to new yahoo email address)

    I have been using yahoo since 1999 and now wish to change my email address as my surname changed. I set up a new account and attempted to automatic forward all emails to this new address but yahoo does not give this option. Apparently it's not for this 'locale' Can Australia be added please?

  6. Sort mailbox list

    Under settings > mailboxes, I am able to add mailboxes, but there is no way to sort the mailboxes. It would be nice to have the option to see the mailboxes in a particular order. Please add sorting of mailboxes. Thank you.

  7. block sender

    My wife and I are really amazed the "Block Sender" is so poorly set up. If you insert on your site that the user is able to "Block Sender" AND "Block all future emails" and "Delete all existing emails" it should do that. It doesn't. We have shifted to another email as yahoomail does not perform as stated.

    Hi there. The block feature is best used for people, not spam, since spammers can use spoofed accounts. Meaning what you see might not be the actual sender address. The more often you mark these emails as Spam, the more you train your personal mail filter to recognize them as unwanted. For spam going to your Inbox, you can create filters by going to mail.yahoo.com from a laptop/PC, click Settings>More Settings>Filters. Here you can add as rule to filter the repetitive terms you see in the subject line or email body.

  8. font size

    I see that this concern has been noted already. By numerous users. However, I don't see any response or solution from Yahoo!, so I'm adding my concern to the list. Font size in YahooMail, and in the inbox is too small. How do I make it no less than 12 point, all the time? Thank you.

  16. Filters

    Please add a mail filter for exceptionally long sender email addresses. Much of the spam mail that is unblocked comes from email addresses that are more than 50 characters long. The filter would block emails with sender addresses having more than 50 (or number set by user) characters long.

  18. how to set security and login options

    Trying to set up the security options is a nightmare. Finding where the security options is not from Managed accounts, its somewhere else which I cannot find. Can some developer clean this user interface up so that it can be used
