  3. Date limit older emails?

    When sorting my emails from Oldest to Newest I've noticed that my oldest emails stop mid 2003. However, I've used the account from 1999. What happened to the emails from then? Is there a limit on how long emails are saved?

  4. Email search shows a few recent items and then hangs forever

    Every time I do a search, whether it is in an individual folder or globally, it shows a few recent emails, or maybe just one, and then hangs forever; I don't mean just a delay, I mean HOURS later the little thing is still spinning. Please fix this so that it is possible to search through ALL emails!

  6. Enable renaming root folders when they contain subfolders

    Creating subfolders within a root folder is very convenient but, after creating those subfolders within a root folder, I cannot rename the root folder. It's possible to rename subfolders but it would be hugely helpful to enable a user to rename the root folder as well.

  7. Keep Attachments when replying to a message

    When replying to email it should keep the attachments with that email or ask if the sender wants to keep them. Very inconvenient to have to reattach manually. Thank you.

  10. If limiting the number of mails in each folder, give us a way to keep the important documents forever. A way to send to adobe as pdfs. Don’t

    Since you limiti the number we have in each folder give us a way to send them to pdfs. Then I can save them forever. All my important documents are saved there. It would be good to send them to acrobat.

  11. Calendar entry type reverts to General when the entry is edited

    When an entry in Calendar is edited, the type (e.g., Anniversary, Birthday, Vacation, etc.) that was assigned to that entry disappears and reverts to General, forcing a user to go back and edit the entry a second time to add the originally assigned type back onto the entry. This problem began occurring fairly recently.

  12. Yahoo Mail is not usable at all. The Return key doesn't work in Mail, so you can't type paragraphs.

    The Return/Enter Key does not work at all in Yahoo Mail. You can't end a sentence and hit "Enter" to start a new paragraph. That's completely unusable for me. I now have to set up an entirely new business email and take all of my stuff off of Yahoo because it is unusable. I am losing THOUSANDS of dollars a day because of this problem. FIX IT.

  13. message deleted - pop up window bar duration

    The deleted message has an undo window that is blocking the tabs behind it. ALSO it lasts way too long! (I can just go to TRASH if I needed to restore it to inbox anyway.) So...

    Either - let me move the box to another window position and LEAVE it there permanently. NOT blocking anything it covers.

    OR - make it disappear in 2 seconds...

    OR - eliminate it completely as it isn't important.

    OR - give us any or all of these options in settings.

    Thanks!

  14. Auto focus folder search

    Please add auto-focus to the search box when moving email to a folder. When I click move, I would love if the cursor would auto-focus on the search box so I could just start typing the folder name without having to first make an extra click into the search box.

  19. Sent Folder Broken - Auto Deleting Old Emails and New Sent Emails Don't Show Up

    Sent Folder is Broken, Noticed that all my emails from 2014 - Now (2023) were deleted. I had been viewing on mobile so I thought maybe I changed the settings to show the oldest first. Not the case. AND Any NEW EMAILS I write and send, DO NOT show up in the sent folder.
