  1. Actually leave an option for people who don't have cellphones---the alternative to get around the demand to add a phone number is not there

    Yahoo put the alternative back on the "add your cellphone number," but it has disappeared again. Go back to Classic, please.

    In order to add a recovery method (phone number) you can go to mail.yahoo.com and sign in. After that, in the top right corner click on your name and on “Account Info”. Go to “Account Security” and sign in again. After that, click on phone numbers and you will be able to add another one.

  2. Allow the audio and video to play in Firefox

    Currently, when using FireFox, when I try to play a video with audio, no audio plays. If I switch to Microsoft Edge, I can't get the audio or video. Please correct these problems.

  3. How about an actual Yahoo contact for help

    The only actual help (not a list of common problems and solutions) I can find for Yahoo email is to subscribe to a monthly PAID program. All other email sites have free help. Please get an actual HELP site with chat or speak with an ENGLISH speaking person.

    Once you open an email click the three dots next to the Spam option on the top of the email and select “View raw message” A new page will open where you should look for the Originating-IP line.

  5. Assitance

  14. ads in the user default language

    I expect and can accept ads in a free mail service and when viewing videos, but would it make sense to have a filter on these ads so the ads displayed are in my default language. Now I get ads based on location that are not of interest and in a language that I have no interest in viewing. seems like it should be a basic parameter, maybe I am missing a settng

  15. Security

    Your new Yahoo Mail is not secure. Whenever I hit Log Out, it does not completely log me out me, because whenever I go to Yahoo Mail again, it automatically signs me in even though I do not have that option checked. Also, revert back to the old Classic Mail design. More secured. More visually appealing. Why fix something that is not broken? This new one is flawed.

  16. Now I'm getting refused emails that I'm apparently sending to myself,

    Apparently your myip## spams are now refused from me to me thru Mail Delivery Subsystem so I can't block this garbage.

  17. I REALLY DO NOT LIKE the new format. Please let us opt for the old format.

    I do not like the fact that when I forward a message, it does not remain in the inbox. Please let us keep the old format if we want to.

    If you hover your mouse over an email, at the end of the line the trash can appears. Click on it to delete the email.
