How can we improve New Mail?

← New Mail

Too many ads!!!

Ad overload. I don't mind ads, but your interface takes it to new extremes, especially when I try check a folder with no messages in it.

    give us an opt out and not the kind like Microsoft uses, extortion. We remove them all if you pay us a fee...yeah, I refuse to buy ANYTHING from someplace shoving it's commercials in my face.

    It's called tracking my activity but it is simple, plain digital talking. Instead of stalking me, ASK ME DIRECTLY whatever information you need to present ads to me.

    Present me a list of providers, subjects and types of ads (video, image/text because of data costs) and let me tell you what ads I like.

    Next step can be letting me give you feedback about the ads so that you can better select the ads providers that won't have us used Ads Blocker.

    STOP sending the unwanted political ads! Yahoo SUCKS now! I've started shifting over to gmail and hotmail in anticipation of closing this account...

    I DON'T ASK FOR THE VISUAL GARBAGE WHEN I DELETE SPAM. I DO NOT WANT TO SEE THE VIDEO'S!

    The preview window keeps automatically resizing constantly. It switches to wide format. I can't read or check email because of this issue. It switches back & forth every few seconds. I think the side bar ads are interfering with the layout of the whole page. Yahoo fixed this issue on a previous version, but now its back.

    you are faring very well; still dislike ads (odious ads) what to do? (post, post modern capitalism, ugh!)

  • DEREK BALL commented  ·   ·  Report

    You offer the option of marking an ad as "offensive" and claim that will help to improve my "Yahoo experience". I have been marking the add which adds bruises to celebrities' faces repeatedly, and you just show it even more! I think you're being deliberately annoying.

    Forcing me to update and accept your policy terms appears to have resulted in banner ads appearing in my inbox again which I DO NOT AGREE WITH. This is incredibly INTRUSIVE and it is ruining my mail experience. If they are not removed I will be changing my mail account to another provider once and for all!

    no need for adds we are swamped with them everywhere we turn and dont need them here.

  • MANOJ PATEL commented  ·   ·  Report

    Let me concentrate in mails, not teh adds, there are many ways to advertise otherthan mailbox

    My idea is that you honor what your customers say, so when I try to remove an ad that has been coming on my email page when i log and I have done more than maybe 10 or 15 times over more than a week, then honor my desire to remove that ad and really remove it.

    Blurry and ugly. Ad in the middle of my inbox. if it wasn't such a hassle to tell all my contacts I was leaving Yahoo, I'd be gone.

  • Najmus Saqib commented  ·   ·  Report

    Ads keep popping up despite I'm trying to hide them, please fix.

  • Marc commented  ·   ·  Report

    Make a perfectly functional email product serving as a base for OPTIONAL experimental stuff.

    If you need to make money hammer the non-paying customers with ads but keep us the subscribers happy and scale up/down accordingly.

    People who don't trust Google will pay for a WORKING product. We love things like disposable-addresses and in general simple useful features that just work.

    Bells and whistles: optional!

    My bandwidth is not fast enough to support your streaming video and audio ads. If it ruins the effectiveness of my ability to type a email? There is nothing positive I can say about your Ad departments decision

  • Jeremy Linders commented  ·   ·  Report

    Just as it says in the topic. Do NOT advertise scamware in your mail. That is in itself a criminal act or it least it bloody well should be.

  • neil macdonald commented  ·   ·  Report

    Will you ever stop with the ads? I cannot even read a full page email without 1/3 side bar ad - you have ruined what used to be the best email. Gmail looking good. Shame on your money grubbing ad execs.
