  1. Please change the way you take feedback

    The entire process of taking a feedback is difficult for a newcomer and it's more like a community and you have to login for that and then post this idea. wtf
    It should be plain and simple why all this **** like sign in vote up ..... It shouldn't even redirect to a new page. It should just take a instant snap of your screen and ask you for the feedback. Please make it simpler to use and whoever's idea that was he is just outdated. Please change your staff. Better learn from google...

  4. filters

    Adding a filter remains inconvenient, as if designed in, like, 1993.? For example, if you want to add a filter, you might - naturally - want to create a new folder for your new filter. But did you think to do this before you went to create a filter? Most people wouldn't. Hint: WORKFLOW. As it is, you have to completely exit out of the filter thing, go back and add a folder, and then go back in and start adding a filter from scratch. There are much better ways to design this.

  6. No Ad Blocker

    Yahoo mail has now blocked my ad blocker. I can whitelist the site but Yahoo then persists in putting in self-playing video ads which I despise. If this persists and Yahoo does not allow me to use an ad blocker, I will move to a new mail provides.

  7. spam

    Why do items that are sent to your spam folder now still have embedded links active? In the old mail, any links in an item (which are usually bogus or even dangerous) were not active to click on, as a safety measure. If they really were not spam, you would move them to the inbox (or some other folder, I guess) and then you could use the links.

  9. stop the ads

    Please stop the ads. We are paying for a Yahoo Small Business account and the ads are ruining the service. If we can't get rid of them, we will have to change to another service.

  12. Please stop violating my privacy by reading my mail to harvest it for advertisers. Please don't make me switch to Gmail!

    Please do not violate my privacy by reading my email. The fact that I am spending time on your site, reading your content and clicking on your ads should be enough. Please adopt industry standard behavior and stop this practice.

  13. Stop asking if I want Yahoo my home page when it ALREADY is my home page!

    Stop asking me to do something that has been done YEARS ago. We know you ARE able to detect the home page settings, so it is endlessly, needlessly, INTRUSIVE to keep prompting for an action that has ALREADY been effected years ago. Detect that I have done it and please stop the prompting. Just stop please.

  15. ads

    Please allow me to block ads for holidays like Mother's Day. My mom passed last year and the last thing I need is constant ads about sending her flowers! There is no '3 dot' link on these ads to indicate that I don't like the ads. Fix this.

  16. Report as spam button should be the one in bold

    Sending an unsubscribe request to a spammer only verifies your address and incurs more spam. Report as spam should be the option emphasized and "unsubscribe" can be in a secondary menu as it is basically useless against spammers or people who send malware.

  17. Preview of attachments isn't working

    As mentioned below by others, the preview of attachments isn't working. I'm posting this myself as I see that the advice given by the mail support person is completely unhelpful:

    "If you click on the box for the attachment it will open in preview mode. If you click below the box it will download the attachment.

    Thank you!
    Mail Support".

    I think anyone letting you know that the thing isn't working has already tried to open it. Ditto the advice of another support person:

    "If you still find that the issue is happening, please see this help page for troubleshooting: …

  18. Spam is not filtered or blocked

    You need to let us filter these @myip.com @emailverfy.com into the trash! Your filters don't do that and at best only put them in the Spam folder. You should also let us BLOCK messages from a specific site, not just the user name. I would like to block all these @myip.com emails but you don't let us do that. If you can't get this fixed soon, I'm going to use gmail for my real email and just let this yahoo account be for junk.

  19. Deals - "Deals from Email"

    'Deals From Email' (located in 'Views', on the left hand navigation bar) feature I do not fine helpful and it appears to have been forcibly added to the inbox, in the preview pane it sits right ontop of the emails consuming the viewing window and it cannot be closed or collapsed. I'm not sure what the value is as its mining all my email which I find annoying. Is this 'feature' part of a Yahoo enhancement or Verizon enhancement to bring more adds to me from the reviewed data in my inbox?

    Reviews of the feature are predominately negative, so…
