  1. Get rid of ads across the bottom of the page

    Your new ad across the bottom of the page is a really bad idea. What's next? Another ad above it making just one email subject line visible?

  2. Please allow Planner function to be disabled

    Please allow users to toggle off the planner function. Some of us are very happy with existing calendars and find the Yahoo version to be an unreasonable intrusion with your scanning of our emails

  3. Split screen

    Since several months, when I go to move an email into a folder on the left the folders move to the right so that I have to fiddle every tome to get in into the folder. It's something to do with split screen option, but I dont understand what that's for and dont know how to make it stop doing it. Its really arduous to file my emails now. An explanation of how to undo this function would be helpful

  4. Allow one to deactivate an account!

    Why doesn't yahoo have a way of recovering accounts that have been deactivated?

    BTW, you rules say deactivation is implemented after 2 years of nonuse. The account I am trying re use (reactivate) was last used on May 1, 2025 (which isn't close to the two year deactivation limit!

  5. Prevent ADs that look like emails

    STOP allowing ANY ADs appearing mixed in with my emails (Inbox, Deleted Items, Folders, etc) that have an image of a selection box on the left-hand side. They look TOO much like a valid email, but accidently clicking on them as I try to select emails to delete, inevitably opens a malicious website that, thank goodness, my anti-malware software has protected me from.
    But....WHY are you allowing them to attempt to fool us like this?

  6. Ads connected to a Virus should not be connected to email.

    There was an Ad that showed up in my email box with a area to the left to click on it labeled Smith. I tried to remove it and a redirect pop up telling me I was infected with a virus. the Yahoo Mail Ad from smith is the virus. The statement gave the notice of senior benefits in my area.

  7. Language translation feature not available in Yahoo Mail

    Hello, I order some goods from a dutch company and the confirmation email sent was written in dutch. Yahoo mail UI should have the feature which translates the dutch text into english text.

  8. Yahoo restriction should not be a restriction (when trying to reset a password).

    I had a problem using a medical portal and a login issue w/ resetting passwords.
    When I forgot my password and clicked on the 'Forgot password', I entered my email address and then a msg to go to my inbox to get the link to reset the pswd. I never got the link (no matter how many times I tried)!
    After working w/ website support I find that Yahoo and GMail don't support certain portal/website (eg, Athena Health portal and Physicians Mutual! So the email w/ the link to reset the password goes to the TRASH folder!!
    I'd looked in…
