Improve your Spam filters PLEASE.
I nearly deleted my account because of it. I'm sick to the back teeth of receiving emails regarding African Lottery wins, being the beneficiary of an inheritance, dodgy high end labelled goods at ridiculously low prices and the links to **** dating sites. It's shameful that Yahoo, who have some of the best IT guys in the world working for them can't get this right. My computer is a family computer that my kid has access to.

Stop "You may have overpaid" pop-up
Give us a way to 'opt out' of the pop-up that keeps telling us that "you may have overpaid". I have no interest in the service. I pay for Yahoo mail. I'm sick of dismissing that pop-up!

mark as read
Before the latest update, we could check any number of unread mails and hit "k" as a hot key to mark them as "read". Now we have to go through the drop-down to do it. Bring back the hot key!

It would be nice if you could adjust the column containing the folders to make it larger or smaller
I would like to be able to adjust the column width for the folders like the other columns.

Option for adding new contacts
Yahoo should provide an option that enables you to tap on the email address of someone sending email, and adding this person to your contact list straight away. At the moment, I have to copy and paste (or write down) the email of the person sending an email, and then going into Contacts and manually add the person.

Contact History
When entering a contact name, the historical email address takes precedence over a correctly edited and saved contact email address. Also, there seems to be no way to delete that historical email address that is no longer wanted and should not be used.

Classic Mail is better -- please let us keep it
I have continued using Classic Mail for as long as I can because the overall look works so much better for me:
- I can see more of my folders and emails on the screen. The list of folders on the left is more compact.
- "Smart Views" stays hidden -- I don't have to change it each time like I do with "Views" in the new Mail. (Disabling this altogether would be even better.)
- The tabs at the top take up less space.
- The themes are more pleasing, IMO.
Please consider keeping Classic Mail available for those of us who prefer…

More options when writing emails.
It would be great to see more options when writing mail, with regards to font. Actual size (in pts.), underline, etc. Also a few more options in formatting, possibly columns with adjustable width and justification.
Also, and this is probably something I'm missing, but how do I create and save a signature?

The New Yahoo email is not efficient in attaching files. I personally tried attaching PDF file but it took a lot of time
Yahoo should work on solving the file attachment.
The previous version was much more efficient than the current one. -
Get rid of it. EVERY time yahoo changes things they are worse.
Get rid of it. EVERY time yahoo changes things they are worse. Date separation ( earlier in the week, etc) makes mail harder to read, is a distraction, and WORST of all, is completely irrelevant. It unnecessarily spreads the reading field. The red delete email trash bin is too far away and covers the date when hovered over. it should be with all the other functions -'mark as read','search emails', and 'yellow star' this email........RIGHT WHERE IT USED TO BE!!!!! And adds in the middle of my email list instead of only at the top???????

full page contact list
I hate the contact list now being shown on the right side and much prefer the previous full page contact list. Please bring back the full page list or at provide an option to select this version. Also, some of my contacts seem to have "mysteriously" disappeared.

I don't care for the new format. It is very faded and hard to see. Too white and light gray.
The old format was easier to see. This new one is too faded. Gray on white just doesn't work.

Time zone Warning
Delete this setting. It appears more than just me are annoyed with this. It is still amazing that this is an issue when the mobile phones figured this out well over a decade ago. Strange how a progressive company as Yahoo cant seem to figure this one out.

spam
You need better spam filters. If I receive a legitimate email with bitcoin in the subject field, this is always followed by hundreds of spam emails related to bitcoin. Same for dating, any legit online dating emails are immediately followed by hundreds of dating spam.
I also have Gmail, and that never happens in their system.
