need to update spam filter so you can block more than 1000 so good idea if you could fix up to a few thousand at once?, people need to get rid of unauthorized mail that drips in sometimes

This is important. Tired of getting SPAM about nonsensical medical cures, gambling, etc. Can't block by sender because the senders vary, with many senders using fake auto generated sender information.

Allow "Filters" to block messages (e.g., from "contains" a given word). Example: I want to receive nothing containing the word "casino."

I was not receiving a feed back mail after my job interview. After more than a month's time, I mailed the associate rector that interviewed me. He was surprised because he had already sent me two emails and he told me to check my mail's setting.
It is surprising that a person that I already have received and sent mail go into spam. Furthermore, the person has a legitimate university mail address. I never experience these kind of peculiarities with other emails.
(By the way, the job is not yet offered to anybody yet.)
Your spam mechanism should work more "intelligently". I do not know but maybe a weight algorithm. If you are dubious, you may want to ask me before sending it to spam. -

Somehow Yahoo needs to find a way to reduce the spam emails....maybe increase the spam filter - this has become a major issue (only in Yahoo emails) VS charging the user a fee For some reason my gmail account is not that spam aggressive THANK YOU

CalGrzzlyBear commented
Filters are not working. I read https://help.yahoo.com/kb/fix-issues-yahoo-mail-filters-sln27270.html, which was not very useful. Created following filter on 4/10/2023
From Contains: <renter-
Choose a folder to move to: # Spam Trash
and still receive emails in Inbox where From Contains <renter-. Why? -

The current spam detection system needs to be re-worked. Whatever changes went live March 1st, 2023 has drastically impacted the spam system, resulting in many legitimate emails being silently moved to spam, while letting previously marked as spam messages to start appearing in the inbox.
1. The reputation system can't be blindly applied globally. Just because another Yahoo mail user has marked a message sender as spam (thereby causing the sender's address reputation to be lowered which triggers the spam marking) doesn't mean the message sender is spam for all other users. It's a starting point, but individual users must be able to override, per the next item:
2. If any of the following is true, then a message should NEVER be placed into the spam folder:
a. the from address of an incoming email matches any email address contact in my address book
b. the from address matches the from address from a previously marked as spam message that has been manually marked as "Not Spam" (i.e., if I've ever marked an email as Not Spam, then any future email from that email address should never be marked as spam).
c. the from address matches any address that I have initiated an email conversation with (i.e., if I sent an initial email out to an email address, that person's reply should never be marked as spam.)3. On the flip side, If I mark a message as spam, then I all future emails from that email address should go to my Spam folder.
4. The Spam folder has no indication of unread message counts (so you can't tell when there are new messages that got marked as spam)
5. The only folder you can't search is the Spam folder. The only way to find legitimate emails in the Spam folder is to manually scroll through all the Spam messages and hope you don't accidentally miss a real message amongst all the spam. (You can search the Trash folder but not the Spam?) Users must be able to use the search box on the Spam folder, so that we can find the real emails among the spam ones.
6. User defined message filters fun AFTER the system Spam filters do. So, if I create an email filter to move messages from an email address to another box, that rule will never run because the system Spam filter will move the email into Spam before my filter can see it. This wouldn't be a problem if we could create a filter that runs on the spam folder (i.e., if a message in spam matches a specific email address, then move the message back to the Inbox).
7. Allow email address domain whitelisting. We can manually block a domain, but we can't manually allow one? If we had this feature then this would be option 2d above (the from address domain matches any whitelisted domain, then that message should never be marked as spam)
