Does anyone from Yahoo even review this? I am trying to delete all emails from one sender and it is a ridiculously cumbersome process. I come here to leave a comment and see that MANY PEOPLE have commented before. Yahoo, please fix this!! It should be a simple option that either we can search for ALL emails from a sender and delete them with a single click, or even better IMO is nwhen I open an email, I'd like a couple simple options in a drop down next to the trash can that give me the option to (1) trash that email (2) trash all emails from that sender, or (3) trash all emails from that sender and block the sender.

I think it would be a benefit to both Yahoo and subscribers if we could delete old emails en masse - that is, by having an option to, say, delete all emails older that one, or two, years. Presently, one needs to go page-by-page, and do this for each email field. The process is tedious, and one gives up. But - imagine how much server space could be freed up if this became an easy process.

What is up with the way to delete on Yahoo. I am attempted to delete a lot of emails that were unnecessary. When it says it deleted say 1000 successfully ;when it only actually deletes a few hundred.

Create a way to mass delete old emails. Create a filter option to delete emails by date, or have them age off automatically. The existing way often errors out and has no advanced features. I would switch to the Pro version if there was an easy way to delete 10,000 emails at a time easily

I would like to request that Yahoo give users the ability to clean up their cluttered email inbox with a delete all function.

I don't check my email everyday. When I do remember to check it, I am faced with a lot of email. The one major shortcoming that I have always found with your service is that it only allows us to delete 100 emails at a time from the main Inbox. Could you please stop limiting us to how many emails in our "Inbox" we can delete. Is there a way to change the number/option to delete everything at once from my "Inbox" so as to allow us the ability to have a more streamlined and quick "experience?" I for one do not have a ton of time to just click the "All" option in the dropdown menu only to be given the maximum amount of emails I can delete each time at only 100 per deletion. I have much better things to do with my time, like wash my kitchen floor and floor boards with a toothbrush...Is there a way to change the amount of email that can be deleted from your "Inbox" at once or is that a set number? Is it as simple as something in the settings that I may have missed? Perhaps I am missing something in the choices located in the dropdown menu? I do appreciate your help on this, and I want to thank you for spending your time reading this! I know I am the last post of all the posts, so I do appreciate the time spent reading my issue.

Change the delete process to allow more than 100 emails to be deleted. I'm about to dump Yahoo for this reason. Everyone else allows more than 100 deletions at a time, why can't you. Simple fix.

There should be a way to call up all emails from one sender and delete all the hundreds if not thousands in one easy step. PLEASE !

PLEASE!!!! Give us a way to actually delete everything in our inbox. Managing an inbox full of fluff is so painful. It is the primary reason that I've switched over nearly all of my email to Gmail. Yahoo sometimes cannot even handle deleting 50 or 100 at a time... and yet.. the management of email is so klunky that everything just goes to my inbox ... so I'm stuck. Now there are thousands of emails in the inbox and I cannot get rid of them unless I want to spend hours sitting at the computer deleting them one or 10 at a time. It is a horrible user experience.
