  1. Unable to group emails in numerical order

    I am currently creating group emails. I'm numbering the groups so I'd like to have them show up in numerical order. Not this: 1, 10, 11, 2, 3. Is there a setting that would allow me to see them in order.

  2. delete

    Either fix the 'Select All' option to really select ALL or add a choice to do this. Maintaining an active mailbox 50 msgs at a time is not user friendly. This was suggested before (2018 et al) but apparently fell on deaf ears. Almost every Yahoo mail user would benefit, as would Yahoo by freeing some storage space.

  5. 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.

  6. 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!

  7. 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.

  8. 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

  9. 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.

  11. 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!

  12. 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.

  13. when you first click on Unread mail on the left then yahoo sort mail need to add alphabetical order & sorting by sender

    when you click on Unread emails on the left and the yahoo sort mail tab it needs to have to sort by sender, alphabetical order with ascending & descending, date: newest on top, date: oldest on top, starred, subject attachements. Also when you click on inbox the sort tab on the right it does not have sort in alphabetical order with ascending & descending.
    also there is no automatic way to sort mail into separate file folders automatically which will help sort out spam and other emails properly.

    Also I noticed a sections under the email that says unsubscribe which…

  17. 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.

  18. 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

  19. 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.
