  1. Restore the ability to block sender addresses in the spam folder

    The recent update removed the ability to block spam senders in the spam folder, especially the context menu item which used to be available when right-clicking on a spam message. Opening a spam message directly to block is a terrible idea because it can trigger a Web beacon which tells the spammer that you opened their email message.

  3. You should all be embarrassed. It's truly terrible. I will be switching platforms and I hope everyone else does too.

  4. Readability of Emails and Screen Size

    Yahoo Mail is virtually unusable on a screen size less than 17", and even then, it feels cramped. So, if you have a laptop with a 13.5" screen it is impossible mostly due to the right-hand panel taking up so much screen space so that the email message cannot be read without constantly moving the bottom scroll back and forth.

  5. Bring back Old Mail

    I want the old Yahoo mail back. "If it's not broke, don't fix it." The new layout looks terrible, is harder to read, and looks too busy. I need my old email back.

  7. Still hate the new mail format

    I don't know of anyone that actually likes this new format. Please offer the opportunity to revert back to classic mail. Listen to your customers!

  8. Bring back the classic mail design

    I like how it says to give feedback, but there is nowhere easy to find to give feedback. It's only about giving suggestions to change something.
    The suggestion I have is to bring back the classic mail, I don't care for the new mail and have never wanted any new update to it. There is enough computing power with all the data centers going in around the world that the classic mail design should be allowed to exist. At this point I'd rather look into getting an AOL email versus keeping this.

  9. Go back to what Yahoo already was. It was better than this gmail knockoff.

    Absolutely HATE the "new" Gmail knockoff email interface!!! Not that Yahoo cares. You never listen to the people. If I wanted a Gmail, I'd just USE Gmail, not a Yahoo knockoff of it that's even worse.

  12. Fix Bcc so it works like Bcc was intended to be BLIND CARBON (OR COURTESY) COPY

    When sending an email, the Bcc feature is not working as it should. When I send an email & I don't want certain recipients to be shown, I used to use the Bcc & it would not show those names I included in the email. Your new release DOES NOT HIDE THE NAMES OF PERSONS IN THE Bcc section. Please fix this ASAP. Thank

  14. Go back to the way Blocking was set up!

    Your new format showing today has made it much more difficult to block email addresses!! I get quite a few spam emails (they repeat, using a different combination of random letters at the beginning) every day and I would normally select all of them and then just click BLOCK. Now, it looks like I have to block each one individually. This is a huge step backwards, not forwards!!! This is incredibly time consuming and inconvenient now!! Even from what I've read online on how to do this, so far what it suggests to use isn't there. I've set up for…

  15. Bring back right-click to open emails in new tabs

    Bring back the ability to open multiple emails in new tabs by right-clicking the email, otherwise you WILL see many people myself included abandoning yahoo mail for something more user-friendly.

  16. Add back the "block" function on spam messaages!

    Why can I no longer put a block on my spam messages, all I can do is mark them as spam and delete them. That's BS!

  17. Themes

    If this yahoo mail is new and improved...I should have access to all the same stuff I had before. This includes being able to change the background with color and themes. Black and white only is beyond boring...pretty sure that I'm not the only one that likes color in their world.

    New and Improved...is BS. It appears that someone needed to keep their job and decided that this would be a good idea. Believe me when I tell you...IT'S NOT!!

  18. You can improve it by going back to Basic or Classic. This New Mail is HORRIBLE.

    I HATE this new Yahoo mail format. It is a horrible format. WHY AM I FORCED TO SEE A LISTING OF starred E-MAILS to the right??? There isn't even an option to hide this list. SO STUPID!
    IT IS AWFUL. Yahoo should give their clients the option of going back to basic mail or classic mail.
    Why change something that is working for people, that they like?
    This is just an example of changing something just to change it and now making it WORSE.
    Please Please Please give us the option of going back to basic or classic e-mail. I…

  19. Old email was the best.

    How about you let us the users decide what we want our email to look like. I want to go back to the old form of email. It wasn't as crowded to use. I hate the new email and I'm thinking of abandoning Yahoo email for Gmail.

  20. Keep Basic Mail!!

    I don't like the new mail!!! The basic is great & I don't see any reason to change it! I should be able to keep my basic mail!!! I don't like changes & this is one I really don't like. If someone likes the basic mail, we should be able to keep it!!
