How can we improve New Mail?

← New Mail

Stop with the unsubscribe suggestions

For the last week or so, when I log in I am asked to consider unsubscribing from email addresses for emails which I have deleted. I want to turn this feature OFF. I don't need the pop up and it's annoying. I do NOT want to archive those emails.

    YAHOO needs to stop trying to manage our mail box, I AM THE ONLY MANAGER NEEDED!!

    I totally hate this feature too. If I want to unsubscribe, I will on my own. I want to turn this feature off.

    When I delete mail, I just want to delete mail and be done with it. Having to put up with "conversations deleted" tab pop up is annoying enough. It is worse when the unsubscription option tab (which does nothing at all when I do try using it) also needs to go.

    When the 'unsubscribe suggestions' started, I thought it was so annoying and wasted time. But since I've continued to use it, I've realized that I don't have to open each email and scroll to the bottom and search for 'unsubscribe' and then go to their website to unsubscribe. It actually helps save time. I would like for it to offer more places to unsubscribe to and for it to pop up every time I open my mail. I love it!

    Just adding another voice to the above repeated demands that you stop treating us like idiots. It really makes me wonder if I should consider using another email service - I've used you folks for over 15 years with the same email address and I'm really getting sick of being treated like an idiot.

    I like the idea that your company is trying to anticipate the needs of it's users but this "unsubscribe suggestions" is quite annoying. First off I am quite capable of "unsubscribing" from e-mails that I no longer wish to receive all on my own. Second off not everybody reads every single e-mail they receive. Myself, I scan the subject lines to determine if I need to read that particular e-mail at that time. I do a lot of political activism with my e-mail account and quite often the subject line will tell me if it's a petition that needs to be signed or a request for a contribution. These groups are forever begging for money and I don't waste the time to read those contribution e-mails simply because I don't have any money to give them. That doesn't mean that I don't still wish to receive their petitions just because I deleted an unopened e-mail. Please give me a way to shut it off or get rid of it.

    THEY (YAHOO) CAN'T COMPREHEND THAT PEOPLE DELETE EMAILS BASED OFTEN ON SUBJECT AND THEY WILL UNSUBSCRIBE IF THEY WISH TO UNSUBSCRIBE! PLUS THE FACT THAT THIS UNSUBSCRIBE POPUP DOESN'T ACTUALLY WORK SINCE THEY DON'T USE THE ACTUAL UNSUBSCRIBE METHODOLOGY! DON'T ADD THIS USELESS **** AND STOP BEING IDIOTS!

    stop asking me if you want to unsubscribe me, or give me an option to opt out of that message. if I want to unsubscribe, I will. you are not helpful. give me the option to have you stop showing that dialog box!!!!

    We do not need the pop up every day. I don't need it at all. A way to turn it off would be good. OR a way to set the display interval.

  • Beth White commented  ·   ·  Report

    PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE stop sending me pop-up messages asking me if I want to unsubscribe or delete a block of message. THAT IS SO ANNOYING!

  • Jason commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please include a "Don't show me this again" option to stop the "Tired of deleting mail you don't use" pop-up messages from appearing. If I want to unsubscribe from a mail list, I can just unsubscribe on my own. Please fix this!

  • Kevin Vanboden commented  ·   ·  Report

    I am tired of the message asking me if I am tired of deleting. I know how to use the spam filter. If I want to stop these emails, I will do it. Multiple times a day this stupid window pops up and makes me stop what I am doing only to close it.

  • Frankie Daniels commented  ·   ·  Report

    My request is some what like this, I am upset about emails going to my spam folder just because I delete them in my mail. If they are spam I will mark them as spam, so stop sending them to my spam folder.

  • A Miller commented  ·   ·  Report

    This is the worst idea ever. And on top of that, it doesn't even work. Yahoo needs to stop badgering the &*$# out of us. Badgered to convert to new Yahoo, badgered to unsubscribe. It is going to result in badgering to stop using Yahoo all together and going to gmail or anything else.
