Hi there. The more often you mark these emails as Spam, the more you train your personal mail filter to recognize them as such. We recommend following these steps to manage your incoming emails: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/manage-spam-mailing-lists-yahoo-mail-sln28056.html
You can always create filters: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/new-mail-for-desktop/filters-organize-yahoo-mail-sln28071.html

Thanks,

Protect consumers and review/detect & flag scam and phishing emails/links. I see there is no protection or detecting. On the other hand I get legitimate emails from contacts that go in spam, fix this security issue!

Spam folder doesn't learn like it USED TO WITH THE OLD MAIL. That when you click not spam it lets it through. Now I have to click not spam on the same thing over and over and over again.
GO BACK TO THE OLD MAIL CLIENT THE NEW MAIL IS AWFUL -

Yahoo should not allow email to appear on anyone's account unless the senders email is listed on the title of the email you receive. We cannot BLOCK those senders if there is no email address in the title. PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Spam filters need lots of work - not catching/blocking the most basic stuff - - - I shouldn't even have to go to the "Junk" folder to delete this stuff......

Why can't you stop all of the spam emails threatening to shut down my Yahoo email unless I click on their "link" I am getting 7 or more emails a day with the same similar message all from different email addresses. I tried to create a rule filter but it is not working.

Could yahoo enforce their filters or is that too much to ask?

it is painfully obvious that yahoo do not care what we think of the new version of mail or how poor their sevice is.
Lots of issues with performance that haven't been rectified. Lots of unneccesary pop ups that crop up at the most inconvenient times that cannot be switched off and prevent you carrying out the task you were trying to complete. Lots of junk mail getting trough the spam filter, assuming there even still is a spam filter? doesn't look like it with the sheer quantity of dross getting through. The settings we are allowed to change don't appear to have any discernable impact on performance. And to top it all off the visual makeover looks like it was aimed at pre-school children.
We, as users, clients, customers have expressed out dissatisfaction to yahoo about all of this for many months now, and yahoo have failed to come up with any solutions to even one of these complaints. Which says very clearly that yahoo do not care how poor the service they provide has become, or what we think of it.
I rate the quality of service a grudging 1 out of 10 (Only because a service exists)
I rate yahoo customer service a big fat neon lit zero

The filters are still filtering some of the messages some of the time, but not all of the messages all of the time. My inbox is being littered with messages that slip through the filters.

in spite of blocking addresses and deleting spam emails, the new versaion of mail appears to be incapable of actually blocking obvious spam e-mails, in fact I'm receiving far more now that I ever have in the past. I can only guess that the AI or algorithms that yahoo are using is inherantly unfit for purpose, so yet another aspect of the absolutely awful new verrsion of mail that has a negative impact on users.
Yahoo, start listening to user feedback and respond in a positive way please, or do you simply just not care about what we think and the issues we are experiencing?

I've been getting the exact same kind of spam for the past two or three days, clearly from the same people and with more or less the same content.
Your detection algorithm simply doesn't work. I marked all of them as spam and they keep coming, one after the other.
I really wouldn't like to make a definitive move to gmail, but seems the only reasonable alternative -

How hard is it for Yahoo mail to remember my Spam settings? Every so often, senders I mark as spam end up in my Inbox.
