How can we improve New Mail?

← New Mail

Yahoo mail is so slow

Yahoo mail is so so so slow on my computer. I've been using my college email address instead (gmail) because it works so much better. However, now that I am about to graduate I have been using my yahoo email more - but it's just so frustrating how glitchy and slow it is. I really do not want to have to get an entire new email address (I would definitely use gmail if I made a new one) but if this isn't fixed soon I'm not going to have a choice.

    Even though my internet is active, my yahoo doesn't open some of my emails and shows me this msg: "you are offline". But I am not. Could you pplease fix this?

  • Tom Houser commented  ·   ·  Report

    When I get an email from someone who's not in my contacts, the "add to contacts" hasn't functioned for over a week.

    So, when I copy the email address, and do it the old-fashioned way, that's only working about 50% of the time.

    OK, when it actually works...........IT DOESN'T SHOW UP in a search FOR DAYS!!!

    This is just insane. WHO makes a product that we depend on AND PAY FOR, yet it such a poor product. WHEN are you guys going to fix this? Your product was working better 5 years ago than before you gave us "new and improved" It's ridiculous.

    The "Scrollbar" in my messages won't let me scroll by click-dragging the scrollbar. I'm using Firefox.

    No email using apps. Can receive email via webmail—Yahoo small business.

    On My Yahoo webpage, I see mail icon with number of new mail,
    however it's incorrect, as i see on my inbox has no new mail.
    The number of new mail on icon is from Bin folder even from spam.
    So it's been problem on that My Yahoo webpage for months as needs to be fixed , should show only new mail from Inbox only. Also My Yahoo, Today - there is no images showing on 1st page, only go next page, then back, will show the images...

    super delay of recieving emails please please fix this because i need that verification code from moonton

    I discovered that this is reproduced easily by downloading a file from an email

    I implemented a script that prevents the webpage from reloading (It forces the "You are about to leave the page" popup to display whenever the page is going to reload or close, allowing me to cancel occurrence), and noticed that whenever I download a file that popup appears. I must tell the browser that it is okay to "leave the page" for the file to download.

    That's not the issue, however. Not long after the file is downloaded another popup appears asking if I want to leave the page, and clicking yes closes the tab. If the popup did not appear the tab would close automatically.

    The closure of the tab is very much unprovoked, and I'm attempting to nail down what script is closing the tab

    I have no problems with speed but having extreme difficulty signing. Some say Yahoo has built in several issues in signing so people have to subscribe to paid support.

    This just started today (5/12/21).

    I can be doing something in a different program or typing an email and the tab will just close by itself. I can Ctrl-Shift-T the tab back open and continue where I left off.

    No idea why its doing that. About:Crashes doesn't turn up any results either.

    Its ONLY the Yahoo Mail tab as well. Very odd. Any ideas?

    This is not an idea,,, This is a request to fix a problem between you and Apple.
    Maybe you should have a better feedback mechanism.

    Using Safari on mac is broken. Inline images won't show.

    I am unable to send multiple files or documents in a single email. Why do I and my recipient have to download Google Classroom/Dropbox to send/receive those documents needed. Even after all the trouble downloading those apps, I am still unable to send the needed documents to my recipient.
    Which MORON'S idea to make life this miserable for us users? All this while we have NO issues sending multiple documents. Why do you complicate things? You think we have the time for all this ****? We chose YOU over other mails. Change it back to the old ways where we can easily send multiple documents.

    Glad to learn I am not alone but this has become very tiresome. Open a few emails then it slows down and eventually gives me the "you are offline" message.The only "hack" I have found is to switch to another browser when I get that then switch back when that one locks up.

    I have changed my settings to download images except for spam, but no images ever download. If I can't download images, I have to get rid of my yahoo account. How do I fix this? Nothing I do seems to work? ***

  • Tanya Stone commented  ·   ·  Report

    wheel keeps turning but nobodys home...WHY with this dumb new yahoo can i not search the inbox or anywhere else to find emails? SEARCH does not load any results at all. this is an important feature and i see many old complaints. is nobody working to FIX this or what? now i cant post comment because it somehow automatically signed me out? i am signed in, but it canceled that. also it opens a new window every time instead of changing pages. 4 yahoo mail pages open and still cant perform? bummer

    Hi ! "Yahoo Support Team" why is difficult to *Upload Documents* in a Yahoo Social Version.
    Hope drastic Needful must be done promptly.

  • Lateef Andu commented  ·   ·  Report

    In a "Yahoo Social Version" Cannot be able to "Upload Documents* which 's serious case, because one may need this at any point in time.

    Why is mail loading so slow now? Is your new data harvesting software not working properly? What gives?
