How can we improve New Mail?

← New Mail

spam filters

The spam/junk filtering algorithm should be increased more, as it's becoming difficult to filter spam/junk emails using the server rule option.

    After selecting "Spam" messages, or highlighting all, why is my request to "Block senders" ignored, ON A DAILY BASIS!!!!

  • Doug M commented  ·   ·  Report

    Yahoo is not filtering spam at all!!
    Blocking addresses and domains doesn't help as spammers keep creating new ones.
    In fact as a for instance, I've added filters for 'KETO' appearing subject, from, body, etc. yet get over 2 dozen spam emails daily containing that word.
    This sucks!!

    Filter Spam better. It's an assault just to get some of the misogynist *** spam!! "Janice is looking to get roughed-up" DO NOT want this to come thru to my email!! For me, it's so long Yahoo, I've been frustrated with you for ages!

    Please make it easier to block pornographic spam!

    Stop the madness. Why would I have to unsubscribe to something I never subscribed to? Political ads are employing this dishonesty and as always it speaks to their character. Dishonest. Stop the spam and the people subscribing me to things I am against.

    you should add a option to add value to spam filtering as clicking on spam does not do great job

    Not sure what's happening, but spam filters are not working anywhere as good as your competitors. Roughly 50% of my yahoo mail is spam. I really have little need for yahoo mail if all I am getting is spam.

    Please add an option to disable your spam filter.

    I am missing my mails because your spam filter sends them into trash!

    I am missing my mails! I am missing my mails!
    Because you don't allow users to choose weather to use your spam filter!

    I don't care about spam filter algorithms.
    I think users have the right to choose to use or not to use the spam filter.
    Even if you really make a good algorithm.
    Users just have the right to disable the spam filter.

    I am receiving continual messages that my Yahoo account is going to be disconnected or deactivated due to excessive log-ins which keep going to my Spam, find some way to stop this nonsense, it is more than annoying.

    The span filters seem to be not effective at all and even after marking some mail ids as spam i keep getting mails from them. It needs serious improvement as it is impacting the user experience.

    Yahoo why cant i block any of my spam emails now it used to let me do it often and it never blocked those spam emails also Yahoo for me for at least a week or more then a week Yahoo?

    Why is Verizon not able to stop it, other web based email services can control it. I block their address and they still arrive in spam, if I go days not on yahoo mail, pagessssssssss of spams and most from same senders..Why won't Verizon handle this? What's their benefit to letting so much spam to my spam box,. other than to waste my time.
    Yahoomail is about useless and loads slowly and send and read slower than any other email service web based free.
