  2. Remove ads from bottom of Inbox page, it reduces too much the available space for email messages. Already ads on right side.

  5. Downloading attachments not working. Can only use Preview and then right click to Save Image as. Please fix.

    I used to click on the name of the attachment which then opened up the Download function. This no longer works nor does the download icon in Preview. I have to right click on the preview image and select Save Image As. What a pain! Fix it.

    This issue is currently under investigation, we appreciate your patience and understanding while our team finds a fix ASAP. As a workaround, the attachments can be downloaded using the Basic version of the webmail. To switch to the Basic version of the webmail, log in at mail.yahoo.com from a laptop/PC browser, click on Settings > More Settings then the option "Switch to basic Mail" will be on the left side. 

    Thank you!

    Better effort on the part of Yahoo is needed to detect spam before letting it get through to users.

  8. Yahoo Mail has gotten slow

    Why has Yahoo Mail gotten so painfully slow over the past couple of weeks? Is there a way to correct it? I use it for for both business and personal use, and it has become a real problem. What is the plan and timeline to restore it to a normal speed and response time?

  9. Dating ads

    There is no way I can stop dating ads. Nothing to click on to stop even temporarily. Please, please end these ads. My husband has access to my email. These are highly troublesome! I've tried everything outside of having to spend my hard-earned money to block or even temporarily stop them. Anything Yahoo can do is most appreciated.

  10. false security ads

    Ads that present a false sense of a security threat SHOULD NOT be presented on the email platform. Ads are fine for a free product, but showing ads that state that a virus is detected, should not be present in the platform. (Presented by good ole McAfee!).... Stop encouraging people to worry about their computers when there's no threat!

  12. Vulgar Ads

    The ads on the sidebar are distracting and some are gross. Why is there a half naked guy showering while I try to write an email?!?! The ad space is huge and it completely ruins the functionality while making it feel like a spam site. Change it or I'm leaving after 15+ years.

  13. Ads

    We should be able to opt out of certain ads on our email home page. I do not want certain ads popping up on my home page. I know that we have to have those annoying ads on our screen, but we should be able to opt out of ones we find offensive for some.

  18. I'm close to ditching yahoo entirely because of the ads I see when I read mail

    The theme I see in the ads you're showing me is that I can solve my nonexistent ED problems by clicking on ads showing sultry women. I'm very very very very very tired of these ads and the pics of beefcake guys tempting with offers to bulk up. I'm very close to ditching yahoo entirely because of this. Make it stop.

  20. Allow more than 3 URL blocks. Yahoo does not appear to have automatic spam blocking

    This category should be security or just usability of Yahoo mail. The amount of spam that gets through is bizarre. Why not block the junk mail coming from suspect countries. Every other mail system has a junk mail folder to put the spam in. Many email addresses are many random characters, those could easily be blocked. Since spam is not blocked, allow us to block more than 3 URLs so we can at least stop the continuously changing email addresses from coming in on the same ridiculous URLs.
