  1. Get rid of the recipient in the address box because it takes longer than just placing the name and autofill at thatand go back to original.

    Stay with old address box with "To" rather than "recipient". The old way was much faster than going through all my contacts to find someone

  3. Hide view next unread message

    What is this obnoxious large circle covering a good bit of my message allowing me to skip to my next unread message? Garbage, absolute garbage. How do I hide it? I can't! Not in settings.

    When you introduce a new feature, give folks the ability to turn it off. This is ****.

  4. Composing email

    My settings for composing an email are: Modern Wide - Medium, yet when I go to compose, the size is "small." Why aren't my preferences working?

  7. Be able to close the SETTINGS field in mail

    I have over 18" of screen space for Yahoo mail the first 2 sections of yahoo mail screen are the same a column for compose, inbox and other folders. Then the regular wide column that contains the day, sender, email title and first line. There used to be a small settings area that would open when you needed it. Now it is on all the time giving me the large circle with an image or letter for the owner followed by information about the sender and do I want to add or update that sender. It is a waste of…

  9. New In-Box Sort Tabs Function

    RE: new tabs at the top to sort emails in the in-box > Priority, Updates, Offers, Social or All

    I like this new feature, but it seems to have a bug. My preferred default is "All" but when i go to one of my folders and then return to my In-Box, the default goes to "Priority". Couldn't figure out where most of my emails went, until i happened to notice these tabs at the top, and this is how i discovered them. It would be nice if we could set a default sort, and change the order of these tabs.…

  10. Pls Bring Back Stationery

    Stationery is a critical difference maker for Yahoo Mail so why has it been removed from my Yahoo Mail now? I LOVED it and I am pleading with Yahoo Mail to bring it back ASAP, especially for the holiday season. Thank you kindly in advance.

  11. i would like to be able to change the color of the stars based on how important the email is to me.

    Allow selection of star color. i have had to find an email quickly and the easiest way would be to be able to filter on starred emails and if the user could change the color of the star based on importance.

    Windows allows you to categorize emails using color.. that would work too.

  12. Repeat events every 4 weeks

    I didn't see this to vote on it. So... I love Yahoo calendar. But I have events that repeat every 4 weeks, not monthly. I'd greatly appreciate it if you could make it possible to repeat an event every 4 weeks. It's kind of a hassle to have to do it manually LOL

  13. SORT in UNREAD.

    Be able to SORT in UNREAD.

    You don't read these complaints and fix a very annoying problem for everyone!
    Why have a "complaint section" when you totally ignore every single one of them?!

  14. Problems with the To-Do list

    Novel idea: how about if the To-Do List associated with the calendar actually listed the To-Dos in date order when "Due Date View" is selected instead of something else ... the order in which they were entered I think.

  16. 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.

  18. The new inbox tabs desperately need a count of new messages on them

    With the new Inbox tabs, tell me how many unread emails are in each tab, preferably immediately next to the name of the tab. That unread number should sum up to the total number of unread emails that appears next to "Inbox" on the left hand navigation.

  19. travel

    VIEWS
    • Recently switched to Ymail for the Views (and I love it, but)

    • Not all flights are being extracted (EVA Airlines, specifically)

    • Would love to manually add emails for "info extraction" so they show in the upcoming tab for Travel or alternatively if you could add an exhaustive list of international carriers that'd be great!

  20. inbox not showing all

    Bugfix: Inbox not having "all" email option, only some of subcategories.

    Few days ago things changed so that by default inbox shows "priority" that it seems to determine very randomly to just couple of emails, other available options are "updates", "offers", "social", and "newsletters", together these do not show even close to all mails, and other options are not available when using "inbox categories", despite settings listing "all" as one category.

    however "all" category is for some reason not shown at all in ui.
