Filters with Multiple Email Accounts - Impossible to set up
Filters - Filters in the Classic Mail were fantastic - super simple to implement and I had a LOT of them (to the point my inbox was clean, containing the important emails only). The upgrade removed ALL of my filters - and creating new ones can only be done in the settings menu. I have multiple emails (a business email account and personal) linked to a single account - the business one doesn't even list its own folders in the new filters option in settings (yet I am clicking on settings from that account). I am very close to moving…
Filters have to be set separately for each account and mailbox. https://help.yahoo.com/kb/new-mail-for-desktop/sln28071.html

Stop disabling messages and links disabled in spam. I often want to see them, even if they are spam. I don't appreciate censorship
I don't want links and messages disabled, nor to have to make a message 'not spam,' in order to view it. I don't want it in my inbox, but I do want the option to view it to be mine. Sometimes viewing spam, alerts as to what is 'out there,' and sometimes spam gets through Yahoo filters. I want to be able to identify spam that may have entered my inbox. Yahoo should not be censoring my email; putting it in the Spam folder is sufficient. I check that folder frequently and, as a responsible adult, am intelligent enough to…

WHERE? I can't find the SETTINGS/MORE SETTINGS etc. more Help plz
On mail.yahoo.com the settings gear icon can be found on the right side of the email screen. Once you click on it a new menu window opens. In that smaller window, you have the More Settings. Click on that. An entire new settings window opens and on the left side of the screen click on Mailboxes. In the middle, you see your email address, click on it and on the right side a new menu appears. The “your name” setting is the first in the list.

Your directions for changing password is useless.
How about get someone there who knows what they are doing. You instructions for changing a password is ridiculous. It DOESN'T WORK! You have no "Change Password" link which you claim to have. It just keeps circling you. Don't tell me to go to help because that is where I went and your process is incorrect! You must want to loose customers.
In case you have the Account key Setting enable, you will have to disable it and then change password.

will not let me create a new account or delete an alias.
tried several times to delete an an alias as I really wanted it as an account. would not delete.
tried to set up a new account and it would not do that either. told me I had too many failed attempts! Only failed attempts were caused by Yahoo not creating an account or deleting an account. created it on gmail, no problems.There is a limit of 1 email alias per each Yahoo account, so if you need multiple extra accounts, you can create disposable email addresses. In order to delete an email alias please follow the steps here: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN29287.html

Switch to New Mail
I am not able to switch from Basic Mail to the New version as there is no link or nothing that says 'Switch to newest version of Yahoo Mail' anywhere on the page. I have gone in to the settings and there is no option to switch there either....
Basic Mail lets you use a simple version of Yahoo Mail when you can’t use or don’t want the full-featured experience. You may be automatically switched based on your system preferences or you can choose to switch on your own. More details here: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN15090.html

Quit being so stupid and making yahoo email so dumb!
So now there is no longer the option to attach a url. You have to go back to how it was in the dark ages and copy and paste it into your email and the person you are sending it to has to copy and paste the url into their browser. What did you do hire grade school developers to come up with the mess that this latest "update" has turned yahoo email into. It's a disgrace and horrible.
In order to add a URL in the mail compose window click on the link icon on the bottom of the screen, next to the “B” (bold).
