    stop preventing me from forwarding a phishing email to the proper authority! there is an address to send them, after you copy the raw email and paste it into the email. But now your stupid system does not allow it any more! you stop it from being sent to the authorities ! ( reportphishing@antiphishing.org) A LEGITIMATE AUTHORITY TO REPORT IT TO!
    You block me sending it and your stupid popup banner says something like, It can't be sent due to it has too many links and resembles spam. REALLY? EFFING IDIOTS! IT WAS SPAM/ PHISHING! AND NEEDS SENT TO THE AUTHORITIES WHO DEAL WITH THESE CRIMINALS YOU GOD DAM ROTTEN PIECES OF ****.
    YOU ARE COLLUDING WITH THE CRIMINALS BY NOT ALLOWING US TO FORWARD THESE TO THE AUTHORITIES, YOU ARE BEYOND REDEMPTION, JUST SELL YAHOO TO SOMEONE WHO KNOWS HOW TO DO A GOOD EMAIL SYSTEM.

    Improve your security at your end to stop all these Scam Emails from ever appearing in my Inbox again.

  • Steve Hamilton commented  ·   ·  Report

    When a scam ad is identified, have your system stop showing it, at least to that user, rather than what currently happens where I now only see the scam ad!!!

    stop sending unsubscribe notices to known spammers. Give me the ability to block senders

    I have been having problems with the person that rejects comments. They will reject any thing and every thing i post. i can say have a nice day and it will get rejected. No red warning that you would usually get .Some time they would wait 24 HRS before rejection. No reason no explanation but that it is done automatically. And if that is the case then it needs to be fixed.I noticed they do not like the people on the right and they are far left and suppressing and blocking the the truth republicans are commenting on. there is no excuse for such bias actions and is illegal for a public platform to to take sides on a subject.So they need to get new personnel that can be fair and not one sided. that is the whole point of comments is to allow for every ones opinion to be heard and not rejected because they dont agree

    I keep saying email is "Not Spam" yet the email from the same email address ends up in SPAM folder. You need to fix this problem.

    make spam filters available for free version

    How hard would it be to have a BLOCK button next to the MOVE and ARCHIVE buttons? So you don't have to open a suspicious email to block it. (No spam is different) Sometimes we need to search spam for miscategorized email

    As of around July 1, 2023, the SPAM filters that I have been regularly adding to for 20+ years have stopped working. What changed and change it back. My inbox is flooded with junk that the filters I created stopped working. Yahoo! Mail is just not even adequate anymore.

    until last week you were doing a good job. all of a sudden it went to ****.

  • Stephen Wagner commented  ·   ·  Report

    what has happened to the spam filters on Yahoo? I am getting 30 to 40 spam messages a day, often the same ones day after day, even after reporting them as spam.

  • Victoria Thewes commented  ·   ·  Report

    I'm about ready to dump Yahoo! The spam that get's through is ridiculous. Why report it if nothing happens!

  • rashpal kaur commented  ·   ·  Report

    My email is being used to send out dodgy spams to my contacts. Can you'll do something about it !

  • Bibek Bam commented  ·   ·  Report

    i have started getting a number of spam email and unwanted emails for the past few days , i am troubled to think my data might have been leaked or something. can you check and get back. i am sure i have never subscribed to any thing using yahoo so i dont know how this is happening now after so many years of use

  • Gene Goldenfeld commented  ·   ·  Report

    Two days in a row, obvious spam is not being stopped by Yahoo Mail, as it has in the past. I can see it in Mailwasher Pro. But before I do anything with that mail in MWP, I go to my Yahoo Mail account thinking that I can reclassify it as spam, but Yahoo Mail says there's no email in my account. So your instructions about marking spam are worthless. And why should I pay to get further help when Yahoo is not doing its job in the first place.
