I mistakenly marked an e-mail as Spam
I accidently marked an e-mail as Spam and it wasn't Spam. What can I do? I want to keep receiving those e-mails and I'm afraid I won't now. Please help!!!
The best way to resolve this is to mark the emails as “Not Spam”, that way you can train the spam filter to better identify important emails in the future. Also if you use a mobile device or email client to access your mail over IMAP, please check the Spam filters in that application, to make sure it’s not marking important emails as spam.

We’ve been emailing for years! It seems since I upgraded to IOS 13 a few days ago, all of my sister’s emails end up in my Spam folder. Marked many of them as non-spam or moved the others to inbox, yet it keeps happening! Checked my contact list for her ID - nothing alarming there! Very frustrating! Expecting many legal & imp docs... some cannot be opened till email is in-spamed! HELP!!!

dear yahoo, here's an idea. STOP SENDING CONSERVATIVE AND REPUBLICAN emails THAT I PURPOSELY SUBSCRIBED TO, to my spam folder. STOP controlling my email and my spam. i am perfectly capable of controlling my own spam email. i have contacted yahoo regarding this problem before and never received a satisfactory response. you responded, " ' we cannot let you control all your spam on your own. ' " paraphrasing.
stop automatically sending my emails which i subscribed to and want to read to my spam folder because you don't like my republican and conservative emails. STOP. STOP STOP STOP STOP
THANK YOU

Why Did all my primary contacts suddenly change to Spam?
WTF - I email saved contacts and their replies just suddenly switched to my spam filter last week?
How do existing contacts that I emailed on Monday and Wednesday end up in my Spam Folder on Thursday?

Dear Rep, programmers:
I find those e-mails that have been in box was in SPAM folder, and new important e-mails in SPAM folder; since I did not find important e-mail in inbox, I contacted the sender and told them if PHP routine might not work...then I found in SPAM folder. I wonder what rules you determine which should be in SPAM.
--- How about this proposal: accept all the e-mails until we decide which should be moved into SPAM folder or not. This proposal is the same as the current trash folder to which we decide, right? Many people posted, please do not move e-mails to SPAM folder in a haphazard way, or setting Yahoo's rules. -

Something has changed in the last month or so on your spam filters, now emails i have gotten forever are going to spam even if they are in my contacts. Fire whoever changed spam filter and put it back. I have had perfect spam filter up until a month or so ago. -

Important emails often end up in the Spam folder, which has no indicator to show that it contains a new message. After 30 days you automatically delete these emails, with no way to recover them.
Around 90% of the emails flagged as spam are false positives, so if I don't constantly open the Spam folder I end up losing numerous legitimate emails without ever seeing them. I've come dangerously close to having vital emails deleted (e.g. official letters saved from Spam folder after sitting undetected for 28 days). I'm sure many other important emails were auto-deleted and I'll never even know what they contained.
Either give us a warning that an incoming email has been diverted to the Spam folder, or don't delete unseen emails from the folder.
Even just reinstating a simple counter next to the folder name (like every other folder still has) would reduce the problem significantly. Why was such a basic feature ever removed?

Why can't emails on my Contacts list always be delivered to my Inbox? These are saved contacts and the emails from them ALWAYS go to my Spam folder. I mark them as "Not Spam", then the next time they in my Spam. Has been a problem for months. My comment from 2 months ago is unanswered. Gets really old.

How do I turn off Spam filter? Yahoo *** are filtering out messages I want. "Not Spam" button does nothing.
I am MISSING some of my inbound emails that biased Yahoo aye holes think I should not get. Yet when I click "Not Spam" they still go to the Spam folder. Stop effing up Yahoo***.

The whole spam processing that Yahoo! has implemented is a pile of ****!
First of all, the folder needs to have the same capabilities as the inbox. This means, for example, the ability to search!
When an email is selected as "NOT SPAM" it should NEVER appear in the spam folder again!

Legitimate email, from a sender in Contacts, frequently gets routed to Spam folder. I have repeatedly marked the sender's messages as "Not Spam," but this continues to happen.

Create a "white list" file so that your idiotic system does not keep putting important emails into the spam folder. I have a subscription that keeps getting cancelled because for some unknown reason, their emails end up in the spam folder. It's enough to make me drop Yahoo entirely. Fix it or lose users!
