  2. Calendar entry type reverts to General when the entry is edited

    When an entry in Calendar is edited, the type (e.g., Anniversary, Birthday, Vacation, etc.) that was assigned to that entry disappears and reverts to General, forcing a user to go back and edit the entry a second time to add the originally assigned type back onto the entry. This problem began occurring fairly recently.

  4. The New Log In Procedures

    I absolutely despise your new login procedures.

    They're draconian, intrusive (Why should I have to give you access to my phone number, another email address, MY HOME ADDRESS --and if I've moved five times since establishing this account? Hm? and other information? It's BS.), busywork, and arrogant.

    They are basically a set of escalating, anti-user, deeply frustrating, barriers.

    They repel instead of invite.

    They engender distrust instead of allaying worries.

    They needlessly complicate a system that should be simple.

    The complicated, intrusive new log in demands feel like a directive from people in the C-Suite to the Development Team that…

  5. Holiday Reminders Optional.

    Make them optional, please. One popped up for Father's Day today. My dad died of pancreatic cancer, and I would rather not think about it. I know it is helpful for some people, but for other people, it is like poking an open wound.

  7. 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.

  8. "To:" searches should work similar to "From:" searches. THEY DON'T. For example...

    The "To:" search is broken. It should work very much like the "From:" search, but it doesn't. For example:

    Let's say I have been emailing, Back AND Forth, with JoeSmith@corboy.com.

    If I search for "From:corboy", the results DO correctly show some of the emails.

    If I search for "To:corboy", the results are Incorrectly empty.

    If that isn't and error, then it is certainly a weakness.

    I am a Yahoo Mail+ subscriber, so I am also surprised that your email searches don't allow the use of wildcard symbols.

  12. Search Feature Only Finding Sent Emails

    I've finally reached the point of desperation to post on the forum. I have not been able to find emails on Yahoo for a couple of years now. EVERY time I search for an email, even one that is blatantly right there in my inbox (when I tested the severity of the problem), and I type the sender's name in search for "All Mailboxes", I will only ever get the emails I have sent to this person. I've had to ask clients multiple times to resend me files and contracts because Yahoo has lost all of their emails. What is…

  13. highlighted emails

    When opening an email and going back to what you read, it is not highlighted, can you please highlight those incase you want too delete them out. It also took me a long time just to get to this point, why can I no longer just email Yahoo with a question instead of navigating through everything?

  14. Remove Calendar Reminders from Yahoo Mail "sent' mailbox

    Hi I am hoping you can undo or make optional the recent change that puts my calendar events into my sent email box. I like a very clean sent email box and this prevents that. Sending calendar events to one's inbox is optional. -- and I do like to do that for reminders. But could you please stop putting them in the sent box or make it optional? Thank you!

  15. Push notifications for new received email in phone apps

    My phone didn't receive any push notifications for new email from few days ago, no matter it's iOS or Android. Please advise how to set it to resume as before.
    P.S. - I've change my password few days ago, and also change my phones login password already. Apps can see those new emails after open it.

  16. Clearing spam messages takes what seems forever

    There's an excruciating long wait after spam messages are cleared and until you're able to navigate from the spam folder.

    I think I know the reason: so ads and background trackers can do their thing. The longer you stay on the page, the more info they can scrape. After all, why have that nasty spam video in the spam folder? Seems ironic to me. This is forcing others back to Microsoft of Gmail.

  18. Would it be a problem to outline the "Delete" button in red, or the "Delete" all in red?

    It would be very helpful if the "Delete" button in the mail panel were in red or outlined in red, or some method, making it less probable to accidentally alighting on a neighboring button.

  19. Fix your email so it does not change into a white "poster board" with black block letters where I click on the email in box!

    How about returning to a regular email format instead of one that resembles a poster board with black letters.
    I can no longer reply to an email as my email changes to the poster board look of white window with black and white block letters - period. Very sterile and worthless as an email. I cannot reply ads there is not place to reply to as before.

  20. User problem with Yahoo mail: Replying and New Mail: unable to type more than one line

    For the past few weeks, the following has been happening:
    (1) I receive a mail and hit the reply button
    (2) I am able to type the first line but as soon as I try to hit enter and go to the next line of my reply, the system refuses to let me do so. I can keep typing the first line and it will run over to the next line - but cannot hit the enter button.
    (3) I have to exit the mail window - delete the window on my browser - and open a new window and…
