  2. Email DELETE Function Default Setting Adjustment Requested

    Please provide a standard default setting for the DELETE function so it only deletes "inbox" emails and NOT "ALL" emails. Items in folders should NOT be removed even when deleting by sender's name.
    Right now the only way to prevent that is you need to go in and select "inbox" first to delete only inbox email.
    This is an uneccessary extra step that wastes time for users.
    Folder emails often save important information and should not be automatically removed by the delete function.
    If you don't want to reset the DELETE default setting for everyone at least let user's set…

  5. Help me sort by sender and allow me to compose outgoing mail on screen

    I get an incredible number of emails on a daily basis. Some are important and a great number of them are a waste of time.
    On the old version of yahoo mail I could sort my inbox by sender. That would allow me to delete multiple emails quite quickly. Is there any way I can do sorts like that in the new version? Having to do them one at a time is pitifully slow.
    I tried to send an email the other day and it all appeared on one line that scrolled off the page. My contact said he couldn't…

  8. Give the option to switch back to original!

    Give us the option to revert to the original version. I'm probably going to leave Yahoo! mail. Absolutely HATE this new version---visually, very jarring.

  9. Have all emails show up on my phone app and the yahoo website when I log in from my home computer.

    Basic is clunky and hard to use. I don't like having to scroll through the entire message to get to the action buttons. The newest version is slow. On either version not all of my contacts are in my contat list. It frequently will not pull up addresses that I have emailed a hundred times. Not all of my emails show up. Some disappear when I switch from basic to the newer version. Different emails will show on my phone app then if I log into yahoo on my home computer. Yahoo email has stopped working on my Iphone app.…

  12. remove spaces

    removed spaces or at least give a option to turn them off if I had to guess they are trying to use ai to classify messages you can't stop it or reclassify emails that it thinks is family or finance and it sure does it wrong I ended up dropping the yahoo app for a third-party app because that spaces invaded my messages oh oh a pun space invaders if you ever remove spaces I a love yo come back to the yahoo app

  13. new look is awful

    I hate the new layout and how you decide what is primary and not, I just want all my email to be in one place without having to click and change settings. I don't know why you thought it needed changing, but I prefer the old look. It was much easier to navigate and I have a degree in technology.

  15. read emails on the right

    I don't like the new version because it is more difficult to make emails as read and see the difference between new emails that are not read and the ones that are read. I see that now there is an option to use the old versioon but there is no option to have the menu on the left while you read emails on the right. like in all other email accounts

  16. Can only see left half of Contacts

    Bad design to put the contacts on the right side of the emails so only 1/2 of the contact info is showing.

    Need to have a what to show the whole thing otherwise contacts cannot be entered.
    Would put a pic but this doesn't take pics.

    I enjoyed using AI compose features on my Yahoo Mail. But the writing help is no longer available. I loved it and it helped me better organize my thoughts when writing an email. I don’t understand why it’s all of a sudden off the platform. please please put it back in. Thank you.

    I loved the paperless post stationary that was part of my Yahoo Mail. All my contacts were so jealous I had this option and loved the stationary on the emails I sent them. Please enable this option again.

  20. please keep the ads at the top of the inbox not randomly between the emails

    For the past few days the ads in my inbox "all" have appeared randomly instead of at the very top like they used to. It is difficult to see the emails now and I often miss the emails that are at the top because I'm used to the ads being there. Please put the ads back on TOP of the emails and the emails stay under the ads.
