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 !

Thank you for your feedback. Check this article and learn how to block specific email addresses: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/new-mail-for-desktop/sln28140.html

What happened to being able to block unwanted emails. Not only could you block unwanted emails, you could see the email address used to send the email. Surprisingly, some of the email sere sent from a division of yahoo, is that why being able to block no longer exist?

Currently inundated with BitCoin spam ... but the option to Block Senders has disappeared today. Not sure it did anything anyway, but it was nice to feel that I was. And Yahoo.... surely you can stop the mass BitCoin spam emails before they land in inboxes

Restore "Block Senders" to all yahoo accounts, not just some of them.

The Block feature in Yahoo Classic allowed me to block spam addresses without specifying the characters appearing before the ampersand/@. Now, spammers use ever-changing random "names" before the ampersand in the address --- so Block becomes useless! Yahoo needs to restore the functional Block feature we enjoyed with Classic Mail. NOW!

When will Yahoo realise that there is a need to block unwanted/scam emails on the Yahoo mail app. There's no point advising that it has to be done on a desktop computer if you only have access through a phone. Listen, learn, and do something about it.

re add the block feature which you precipitously discontinued. Spammers get mad at you and threaten to quit paying you?

Yeah, so it's a real pain in the rear end to try and find out where I need to go in order to block email addresses that are sending me spam. Most of the time I don't need it, but the few cases I do holy heck the number of hoops to jump through is just staggering.
Can you fix this? Maybe just make it easier to access? -

When some one blocks a "sender/email" in their spam folder why not follow up this request?

The latest version of Yahoo Mail has made it harder to block email addresses, and it was a few clicks previously. Shouldn't you be able to make this a one-click job?
