    As an IT professional we have discovered that the tab pop-ups that lock up browsers and get old people spensing money calling IT professionals to clean up computers that aren't infected. Police the ads or let us block them. simple as that.

    Yahoo is the reason I got ad- blockers in the first place. I had this email for a couple of decades now, but there are other free competitors that are not as bad as the bombardment of ads in the middle of my listed emails? Really? A side or top banner okay; I used to enjoy them since there were from sites that I frequented anyway. You guys think you're so smart, but you are going to loose your loyal base and just like Blockbuster - you will be no more. - warning - we will find other carriers with better service.

    Eff off. I hate how gmail is so ubiquitous, but it beats yahoo lame *** begging for $$$.

    How bad is it, yh??

    I absolutely agree with this, and this is one of the dozens of reasons I have moved a majority of my important emails to my Gmail account. Yahoo! was relevant back in the early 2000s, but has not made any real forward progress since then. In fact, with two of the largest data breaches in history, one could almost argue that Yahoo! has gone backward. Yet they still have the audacity to bombard users with overwhelming ads, then grovel for money when we use ad-blockers in an attempt to make their service usable? If you can't protect our data, you don't deserve our money. Improve your service, or become obsolete.

    I understand ad revenue, and I understand that ads keep services like this free, but companies truly need to evaluate the usability of their platforms instead of just loading up as many ads, social media buttons, and subscription popups as possible. Nobody wants to wade through your layers of advertisements and groveling whitelist requests just to check a two-sentence email, or see an Amazon notification. This is why Google will always win, and Yahoo! will always lose.

    The whitelist popup is annoying, i'm sure you make enough money off the people who don't know what an ad blocker is. given enough time someone is going to figure out how to block out your pop up too. it would be best if you conceded now.

  • Nathan Schaaphuizen commented  ·   ·  Report

    I solely agree with this. The most annoying part is that it pops-up seemingly random. This is incredibly annoying when you are trying to read your mail and get interrupted by a in-your-face screen begging for money. And the best thing is, that you have to pay PER MONTH, that is $41.88 a year (not accounting for taxes or inflation) every year for an essentially free serves without ads.

    Now, i do get it. Mail server do cost money and ads are a good way to offset this cost. Unfortunately (for you)there are other servers available that are completely free and do not have any ads or annoying pop-ups.

    I myself am pretty close to switching over to gmail and from the comments i can make out that other people are too.
    Please Yahoo, you are driving away your user base at a fast pace here. And let me put this in terms the sales people will understand: no users = no money!
    I am beggin you to please stop looking at us as if we are fat dumb cash cows that will fork over any dollar we've got, beacuse we're not and we are quite sick of you treating us that way.

    The harder you nag me with your obnoxious "whitelist us!" popups, the harder I will block every ad. If your service did the job it was supposed to maybe I'd consider it. But since it INSISTS on delivering LEGITIMATE emails from YAHOO GROUPS to my Spam folder no matter what kind of filters I set up and however many times I say "this is not spam", you deserve zero money from me. Fix your busted system instead of trying to nag me into letting you earn money for nothing.

    I have an ad blocker because I don't want to see ads. If you're going to try to make me whitelist so i can see ads I don't want to see, or if you want me to pay just to not have to see ads when I can have my ad blocker in the first place, I'll just go with another email service. Email is for corresponding with people or services who need to get ahold of me. Not to see what new thing to read, watch, or buy off of Amazon. Ya'll make enough money, stop trying to make more off of me.

    Just pops up and annoys the **** out of you when you're trying to create an email - Stop Yahoo!

  • Linda Schlarb commented  ·   ·  Report

    I agree!!!!! Stop the popup telling me to whitelist if you are going to blast me with ads.

  • John Osmanski commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please get rid of this craptastic app. I don't want to whitel ist and I dont want to set my search to yahoo.

  • Flan F commented  ·   ·  Report

    For a month it's been "Your browser settings are blocking some of the New Features of Yahoo Mail!" Looks like those "new features" are simply ads, that Yahoo wants to charge $3.49/mo to remove.

    Nice work, yahoo. Wonder why folks didn't want to Whitelist you guys in the first place?

  • d taylor commented  ·   ·  Report

    Enough with the effin' white list popup. I am on a work computer and cannot whitelist a site. I should not have to see this every time I go into my email. I have started porting things over to gmail so I don't have to deal with it.

    Congratulations, Yahoo! Since you've decided that Ad revenue is more important than customers. And since you've decided to ignore those who are trying to tell you that fact, I've switched to Gmail. Yahoo gets my spam mail now, because that's all you're worth to me.
