  1. "To:" searches should work similar to "From:" searches. THEY DON'T. For example...

    The "To:" search is broken. It should work very much like the "From:" search, but it doesn't. For example:

    Let's say I have been emailing, Back AND Forth, with JoeSmith@corboy.com.

    If I search for "From:corboy", the results DO correctly show some of the emails.

    If I search for "To:corboy", the results are Incorrectly empty.

    If that isn't and error, then it is certainly a weakness.

    I am a Yahoo Mail+ subscriber, so I am also surprised that your email searches don't allow the use of wildcard symbols.

  2. An icon on which to save an email without waiting

    It would be preferable to have an icon to save an email instead of waiting for Yahoo to save it first, especially when there is a need to go to another site.

  4. new mail sucks try going back to the original format/layout the new one is difficult to access my mail. I will be dropping yahoo

    You need to go back to the old format/layout for Yahoo mail. The new format is confusing and it is difficult to access my mail. I will be dropping Yahoo and will be using Gmail for everything from now on,
    Thank you

  5. I don't think you can improve it. It is beyond insane! Suddenly I can't move emails into categories I want to keep or view later.

    Please just forward ALL the email I get from Yahoo mail to my gmail account where I will be able to organize the emails I get. What you've done is INSANITY!! I'm done with Yahoo mail.

  6. Stop All Mail box and go back to the Inbox Mail

    The All Mail box is no good. I lost mail I had in other folders which was very important to me. Inbox show 4 messages but when I go to the inbox it is empty. Have to go to the All Mail box and then it shows. Please put me back to the old way of usaing yahoo mail.

  7. category tabs

    Please give an option to turn off the category tabs altogether and allow us just to view all new messages in the same place. They are very annoying and definitely do not do anything to increase the usability of the interface.

  8. Why can't I see my full Inbox? Smart Features in the way

    When I click on Inbox, instead of my full inbox, I get the following message:
    "Enable smart features to find all your attachments organized in one place. Your information won't be shared with 3rd parties."

    I do not want to share any more data than I need to, and I'd like this message to go away.

    Now, I'm only able to look at Unread, Starred, Drafts, Sent, Archive, Spam, and Trash --- not my full inbox.

  9. 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. Putting some new messages into inbox and some into "All Mail" SUCKS!!! It's horrible. You've ruined a good experience.

    Being able to make different folders is great. But having YOU decide which folders new messages go to is IDIOTIC!!! Yahoo Mail was simple and convenient. NOW, you are diverting some new messages into All Mail, and some new messages into Inbox. That's MORONIC!!! All new messages should go into Inbox. Then LET US DECIDE where to put them. How can I get it back the way it was?????

  14. Why do I have to click on the "All" tab in Mail every time I refresh? Why isn't "All" the default? So, so irritating.

  15. You lost one of my Cox accounts in the transition.

    I was forced to move from Cox to Yahoo. In the transition you lost one of my accounts: nkbbmb98@cox.net. We should be given a FREE month of support.

    Also, I cannot set up my accounts on my MacBook using Apple Mail. I've followed the setup instructions exactly.

  18. Allow access to emails and attachments that are older than 6 weeks.

    Every email I have older than 6 weeks just says "We're unable to load this message. Retry". Attachments are showing up in searches but aren't able to be previewed, forwarded, or downloaded.
    Aside from fixing this issue, another major improvement would be for the help and support pages to not just be circular links with no answers to anything. Maybe even a support email.

  20. Signature option

    Need a signature link like your competitor hotmail has. I have a signature saved in hotmail account for personal use, for professional use. also for offices I hold in my fire department, EMA etc. Yahoo needs this option.
