  2. I'm trying to change the time format to 24-hour clock. Have spent 30 minutes on it and still can't do it. Why is this so hard?

    Have googled it but none of the answers are correct. Seems like this should be one of the main options in Settings.

  3. Please let us know if we didn't attach something

    Like what Gmail already does. Like a dialog box saying "Oh you said you attached something but didn't attach a file. Care to attach one? Thanks!

  4. Please remove dependence of Yahoo Mail to system fonts.

    My Yahoo mail's font is messed up due to a font installed on my PC it doesn't show the Helvetica Neue Regular that it's supposed to show but instead shows the outlined one which is so distracting and confusing.

  5. any email i write is classed as spam

    I have followed all the advice on help pages, phoned Yahoo who say they cannot further verify my account and sent me to mailsafety@yahoo.com nothing there to help. What do you do when the whole help system cannot help and its not your fault - not anti virus, browsers cleaned, no filters. There should be a further option otherwise the only option is to open another email account

  6. Improve the layout of folders on the app

    When I click on the Folder icon bottom left on the mobile app I want to see the spam and deleted folders immediately below the inbox and drafts folders as they are the only three I use. I don't need an archive or scheduled folder so please give an option to remove them or remove them altogether.

  8. support team on call

    My mobile app doesn't work at all. After the latest update my yahoo mail app in my mobile can't even be launched. Three days now, I am trying to restart the app, but with no results.
    What can I do? My hands are tied and I really have to solve this problem because I have no emails in my mobile.

  9. 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.

  13. Recover or forward e-mail from a former e-mail address

    For those of us who thought we changed all accounts tied to a former e-mail address, it would sure be nice to have the option to either forward all mail to a new address for a short duration after account deactivation, or to be able to "pickup where we left off" so that in the event that we missed an account we don't use frequently, we have the option to receive the vital e-mails we need to change the last few accounts we forgot about...

    LOOKING AT YOU YAHOO!

  14. User configurable auto trash deletion- NOT 7 days!!

    The time period for auto trash deletion should be configurable by the user. 7 days is too short. I had to stop deleting my mail.

  17. E-MAIL FONT SIZE IS TOO SMALL

    I have searched for my topic and noticed that others have asked the same question, with no real solution offered by Yahoo. The question is, why is the font in the e-mail so itty, bitty, teeny, weeny? It is extremely difficult to read the e-mail. I am not speaking of the e-mail body, but the "IN BOX" font. No...trying to enlarge the font does not work. THE IN BOX FONT IS TOOOOOOO SMALL! PLEASE MAKE THE LARGER SO I DON'T HAVE TO USE A MAGNIFYING GLASS, OR CUT AND PAST EVERYTHING INTO A WORD DOCUMENT IN ORDER TO MAKE THE…

  19. 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.

  20. search emails alphabetically

    Why can't I search alphabetically my emails? that way I can scroll and read emails only by Home depot, or amazon, etc....or delete all emails by that sender.
    AT@T lets you do that, its so convenient to delete unnecessary emails all at once.
