97 spam emails on a Sunday!!!!!!!!

Better effort on the part of Yahoo is needed to detect spam before letting it get through to users.

    Get updates so that all domains can be blocked. In my spam folder, I am getting sexually explicit spam emails from the same domain that I have listed as blocked for months. How does not this horrible domain prevent itself from being blocked? The titles in the spam emails are soliciting sex with explicit language and profanity. Please find a way to block these domains.

    Could you make it so we can block all emails containing a specific string of text found in the raw email message. Spam sites frequently change their domain names but their emails still contain the same text that would easily identify the spammers who keep sending out the same garbage under different domains.
    For example: If we could block a specific link found in the raw message that is used frequently in a spammers email this would block the spammer no matter what domain they use.

    Mostly the junk folder works for me but recently I have found mails from a solicitor, who I have been corresponding with for the last few months, have sometimes been found in the junk folder. How does this happen and can it be corrected? It is very inconvenient and could cause delay in the important transaction with the solicitor.

    Nothing but SPAM in my inbox. Spam filter sucks. Can barely use yahoo. No spam in gmail inbox.

    I am getting HAMMERED by spam emails again. The volume has steadily increased over the past two weeks. Please make the proper adjustments - you've done it in the past.

    I receive thousands of spam emails that I was allowed to block before. Not only cannot I no longer block spam email addresses, it appears that I receive even more and YAHOO! does absolutely nothing about it. All YAHOO! wants is for you to purchase monthly subscriptions for a useless platform.

    Improve the spam filter. I have marked over 900 spam emails over the last 6 months, all originating or having these characteristics:
    - Return-Path: <random_string@netorg<random_number>.onmicrosoft.com>
    AND/OR
    Received-SPF: pass (domain of netorg<random-number>.onmicrosoft.com designates <IP> as permitted sender.
    Is it so hard for Yahoo Mail Spam filter to block these?
    As I mentioned, I have marked hundreads of them as SPAM and Yahoo still hasn't learned yet??

    IT'S NON-STOP WITH THESE GARBAGE ADS NOT APPROPRIATE I BLOCK SENDERS SEVERAL TIMES A DAY, HAVE MORE THAN ENOUGH OF YAHOO IT'S TOTAL ****. I WILL DELETE THIS ACCOUNT IF YOU DON'T DO SOMETHING ABOUT REMOVING THIS ****.

    STOP SENDING GARBAGE ADS I BLOCK SENDERS THEY KEEP COMING SEVERAL TIMES A DAY, HAVE ENOUGH OF THIS ****

  • mary kathryn commented  ·   ·  Report

    I have several senders in my contact list whose emails go to spam every time. Each and every day I mark them not spam only to find the next days' emails in spam AGAIN. It totally blocks some senders that are in my contact last. You can't be serious by charging for premium support for such a shoddy product. Free support in the past was never helpful. I sure as heck wouldn't pay for it.

  • R P commented  ·   ·  Report

    I receive a dozen or more spam emails daily. Filters don't help as my quota of 1000 is used within a week or so. The spammers use random generated email and the spam is the same but the sender is different each time. Crating new rules and adding another filter doesn't help either. Please do something better than what you already have! This is not an idea but cry for help out of sheer frustration.

    trash,disgusting vulgar trash and yahoo doesn't do one dam thing about it.

  • Marciana Paul commented  ·   ·  Report
