    I have Unsubscribed and Blocked DonaldJTrump's solicitation emails for Save America. Today, October 13, I blocked him after blocking him just last week. Does the Unsubscribe option not work?

  • Christian Robert Fiederer commented  ·   ·  Report

    for a couple of weeks now daily getting up to 10 obvious spam mails in the inbox of my yahoo plus account. filters were better before, this is getting worse and doesn't justify the paid account

    when will it be fixed?

  • Ester Harrison commented  ·   ·  Report

    Spam and junk mail continue to get through into the inbox DESPITE blocking messages, daily adding them to the Spam folder, and creating filters.
    Yahoo you are currently failing terribly at filtering spam and junk email - this needs to be fixed!

    FILTER SPAM EMAILS BETTER. THE SPAM USER IS CREATING NEW EMAILS WITH THE SAME SUBJECT INFO AND WILL NOT ALLOW US TO BLOCK THE NEW EMAIL ONLY PUT INTO THE SPAM FOLDER, ALLOW US TO BLOCK ALL SPAM EMAIL USERS AS WELL!!!!

  • David Nasralla commented  ·   ·  Report

    Most all of the spam that gets through yahoo's email filters has funky text encoding on the subject line making it almost impossible to filter. Rarely (if ever) do I have a legitimate email that does not have a plain text subject line. Camp Legeune spams are a great example with tons of emoji's and odd encodings in the subject line.

    I keep getting spam email with addresses starting with "newsletters" but the domain keeps changing. They do go to spam but it annoys me to even see them. Allow me to block emails that start with a specific word so that they don't come to me at all.

    i don't like to accumulate unnecessary e-mail in my inbox and by not being able to delete them it bothers me, so all those functions are not active.

  • olga molina commented  ·   ·  Report

    pleaqse, my e-mail hasn't been working properly during the past week, it means i can not delete e-mail or spams all those buttons are not active. This is the first time that has ever happened.

    Yay!

    After over a decade of users begging Yahoo for the ability to block domains, which is far more useful for addressing spammers, the feature has finally been introduced.

    But it is limited to just three domains. Insanity.

    We also need .TLD blocking.

    Many Thanks.

    I can't unsubscribe from this constant nuisance, 25+ emails per day........STOP IT

  • R H commented  ·   ·  Report

    Do a better job of blocking spam mail. The repeaters are few but persistent. If the emails from .uk could be blocked, that would help. I have used Yahoo for many years for business communication and it would be a major pain to change, but I will if I can't get some relief.

    Yahoo Mail has soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much spam, like this message, it is ridiculous

  • David Parmentier commented  ·   ·  Report

    STOP the SPAM at the server level before it gets to mailboxes. It's ENDLESS now!

  • Justin Miller commented  ·   ·  Report

    There need to be a better way to block senders and sent emails to junk by filter. I have had enough of the Camp Lejeune Spam hitting my folder. I have set up filters for all combonations of Camp, Lejeune, and Camp Lejeune in the subject line, body, and sender of emails. I also send them all to the spam folder, but somehow the same senders with the same emails get through. I am getting so many of them, they are becoming conversation threads

  • Sanjay Sharma commented  ·   ·  Report

    Large amount of junk can be blocked by domain blocking instead of blocking 20 mail from same domain.

  • Joseph McCormick commented  ·   ·  Report

    Why can't your systems recognize jumbled symbols and various color emojis in an email header as spam? DUH!!!

  • NOAH commented  ·   ·  Report

    Unread Mail should not include Junk or Spam Mail - The Unread mail button. right now when clicked includes all unread mail including Junk / Spam / and other mail folders. It should only include Unread mail in the Inbox. Can you please make this change?

  • Lori Houde commented  ·   ·  Report

    Provide users with a tool that can block unwanted emails. Since the removal of the "Block" feature my spam context has increased 10 fold. Give us back the "Block" feature or you filter out spam phishing emails for us.
