  1. Ads take too much room on reading pane

    I don't mind the ads on the side but the ads along the bottom take up to much room, make them smaller or better yet get rid of them.

  3. Stop Showing Ads in Yahoo Mail+

    When I signed up for Mail+, one of the key benefits was an ad-free experience across Yahoo. Since then, that benefit has disappeared, and they've even reduced the amount of inbox storage available. Yet I'm still paying for the "no ads" promise.

    So imagine my surprise when I opened my inbox and was greeted by a massive promotion for 50% off the first year of Monarch—presented as a special "perk" for Mail+ users. But let's be honest: it's an ad. And not a subtle one, either. It's huge.

  4. Turn off "streaks"

    I don't know why this new "streaks" feature was added, but it's juvenile and unhelpful. I very much want it to go away. I cannot find a setting to turn off the related notifications, animations and emails. Please turn them off or give me the option to turn them off!

  7. Provide "Filter messages like this ... " in the right-click menu

    Why has the "filter messages like this" option, in Yahoo mail, disappeared from the right-click menu?
    Now it is slower and more complicated to filter emails (to go through the settings menu each time)

  8. Figure out what you're doing in the headers to cause gmail.com to refuse my emails to gmail.com users.

    gmail.com keeps kicking emails from me out via their mailer-daemon. I believe it's because of cox.net emailer riding atop the yahoo.com service. It is intermittent, but is causing me a great deal of trouble. I've tried going through their administration, and they say they've tried to locate the problem, but they likely don't have reason to care; if it keeps up, they figure I'll just start using my gmail.com account. If you and they don't work this out, I'll have to do just that. Please advise. aarch@cox.net

    I can't get back to the appearance I had earlier today. I had columns for th folders, then emails with summery, then the open email then a column for contacts previews etc. What happened to it and how do I get it back?

  12. Inbox Emails filled with bot emails from unknown enities

    Block the casino ads bots as well **** sites, or any sites Indicating accounts data usage are full. Users only want to see legitimate emails! These are sent to spam, and should be deleted as I have never authorized these emails. I have limited data and slow transfer speeds. In Banners ads of inbox, I do not want to see dating Ads, Casino ads, my wife gets extremely upset when she sees these ads, insinuating i have used these sites. No other email accounts post ads such as these or allow spam to be generated by Bots. The spam sites…

    Spam emails are overwhelming.....if they are flagged as spam then automatically delete them. Sexual emails are not asked for or searched for.....block senders would be a nice option

    Hello,
    I would like to request a review of my Yahoo Mail account. My documents were deleted after the storage policy changes. These files are very important to me, and I would like to know if there is any possibility of recovering them or restoring a backup.

    Did you turn off your spam filters? Amount of spam that makes it through has gone up considerably in the past month or so. Other people I know that use Yahoo email have said the same thing.

  20. problems with adding mailboxes

    Hello, I'm having trouble setting up additional mailboxes for sending emails. I have my own domain and a corporate email address. When I associate this account to send emails with my domain from Yahoo, I'm not prompted for the SMTP server or outgoing port; I'm only asked for my email address, password, and a basic verification to confirm the account belongs to me. The problem is that all the emails I send from my Yahoo account to my clients or colleagues are being diverted to the spam folder, no matter how many times I mark the email as safe.
