You can put the "block" function back in the "more" options. Sorting through all the spam to find personal emails is a pain in the *****
Easy, . . reinstate the blocking function. How hard can it be? You ask how you can improve New Mail, . . . you have your answer !

I used to be able to block SPAM email addresses, but that option is no longer there. The amount of disgusting spam messages I get is overwhelming and I would feel a lot better about the option to block these addresses again.

Ok so paid for spam is creating a no winnable spammers harassment campaign. I can't block them, report them, nor auto spam them. Everyday i'm getting harassed by advertisements about paying an old bill that the account is in a dead parents name. I can't block them, report them for harassment all because their paying yahoo? Emails keep showing up everyday. If I can't control who is spam or not, why should I keep my email address? I've already switched to google mainly now yahoo is just trash bin for advertisements. I've had this email for over 20 years and it's sad but taking control away from the user means you don't respect us and we leave.

I'm looking for the way to block an email address that is sending me phishing (service@paypal.com). I thought such emails were illegal. Do you have such a provision?

I should be able to block certain email addresses without having to pay for it. Such a bummer and makes me want to go through the headache of setting up a new email with a different domain name

I have blocked certain senders multiple times, only to find more e-mails from there. I can't tell if the blocking is somehow delayed or if their services are eventually terminated, but there's still something very clearly wrong with Yahoo Mail when supposedly blocked senders are still somehow allowed to send me mail.

My Block senders all of a sudden stopped working on one of my yahoo accounts but on another it is. What happened?

How can you improve email? The block sender should be available. At one time it did work and then when I used it the same email would show up several times.
You want to improve email then put the block sender option back up and make it work. -

Here is another idea for yahoo to get better, fix the BLOCK SENDERS option so that I can block some emails that I do not want to receive. I think that this would be a great function to have.

I noticed that you have not fixed the BLOCK SENDER option. It would be nice if you could get it done.
