  1. Recover or forward e-mail from a former e-mail address

    For those of us who thought we changed all accounts tied to a former e-mail address, it would sure be nice to have the option to either forward all mail to a new address for a short duration after account deactivation, or to be able to "pickup where we left off" so that in the event that we missed an account we don't use frequently, we have the option to receive the vital e-mails we need to change the last few accounts we forgot about...

  2. E-MAIL FONT SIZE IS TOO SMALL

    I have searched for my topic and noticed that others have asked the same question, with no real solution offered by Yahoo. The question is, why is the font in the e-mail so itty, bitty, teeny, weeny? It is extremely difficult to read the e-mail. I am not speaking of the e-mail body, but the "IN BOX" font. No...trying to enlarge the font does not work. THE IN BOX FONT IS TOOOOOOO SMALL! PLEASE MAKE THE LARGER SO I DON'T HAVE TO USE A MAGNIFYING GLASS, OR CUT AND PAST EVERYTHING INTO A WORD DOCUMENT IN ORDER TO MAKE THE…

  3. search emails alphabetically

    Why can't I search alphabetically my emails? that way I can scroll and read emails only by Home depot, or amazon, etc....or delete all emails by that sender.
    AT@T lets you do that, its so convenient to delete unnecessary emails all at once.

  4. Advanced searches for phrases

    It used to be possible to do an advanced search for phrases by putting quotes (inverted commas in British English) around the phrase. Now it searches for each individual word in that quoted phrase separately, making the search results useless. This applies to both paid an free accounts. Please restore this functionality so I can actually find things I'm looking for.

  5. It would be helpful if I could select all mail from a sender and hit delete, but any starred ones would not delete.

    It would be helpful if I could select all mail from a sender and hit delete, but any starred ones would not delete. So that all mail from Staples ( example )would be deleted, except for my receipts or orders that I starred as they came in. That would save Yahoo space as well.

    IE important mail would need to be unstarred to delete it.

  6. Be able to close the SETTINGS field in mail

    I have over 18" of screen space for Yahoo mail the first 2 sections of yahoo mail screen are the same a column for compose, inbox and other folders. Then the regular wide column that contains the day, sender, email title and first line. There used to be a small settings area that would open when you needed it. Now it is on all the time giving me the large circle with an image or letter for the owner followed by information about the sender and do I want to add or update that sender. It is a waste of…

  7. i would like to be able to change the color of the stars based on how important the email is to me.

    Allow selection of star color. i have had to find an email quickly and the easiest way would be to be able to filter on starred emails and if the user could change the color of the star based on importance.

    Windows allows you to categorize emails using color.. that would work too.

  9. travel

    VIEWS
    • Recently switched to Ymail for the Views (and I love it, but)

    • Not all flights are being extracted (EVA Airlines, specifically)

    • Would love to manually add emails for "info extraction" so they show in the upcoming tab for Travel or alternatively if you could add an exhaustive list of international carriers that'd be great!

  10. If you are going to split all of my e-mails up into separate tabs, Please highlight the tabs that have new mail in them.

    There are now five tabs in which an e-mail can be catagorized, but you get no indication which tab has a new e-mail in it. Please highlight tabs that get new e-mails instead of making me click through each one to find new e-mails.

  11. Let's Improve Yahoo Mail Together! 🚀 Vote for Sorting Options!

    I've noticed that Yahoo Mail currently lacks an alphabetical or sender-based sorting option, making it a bit challenging to manage our emails efficiently. I believe many of us would benefit from these sorting features.

    To show our collective interest, let's join forces! If you'd like to see alphabetical or sender-based sorting options added to Yahoo Mail, give this post a thumbs up or comment your support. The more votes, the better chance we have of making our email experience even smoother.

    Let's make our voices heard for a more organized inbox! 📬✨

  13. Is there any possibility of adding an option to place a reminder/come-up for future action to be taken on the e-mail message?

    Add an option to place a designation or indicator of some sort that allows a user to put a reminder/come-up with a "date/time" on a message when the message requires future attention such as a message about a task that needs to be completed in the future or an appointment that is in the future.

  14. When reading Unread emails, my email moves to the next, without my command. Then I have to search for it! FRUSTRATING!

    This also happens when I'm on Unread emails, and I don't do anything. I walk away, and several of my Unread emails are automatically then made read, and I don't even know what emails I haven't seen!!!
