  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.

  2. Don't get rid of notepad!

    Just got the update that Yahoo is getting rid of Notepad!! Why?? This is ludicrous! First you get rid of email theme for emailing and now you're getting rid of my most used feature!!
    I have a business that runs YAHOO and this is a very useful tool in one place.
    Why are you doing this??

  6. Additional storage options need to be improved ASAP.

    Getting additional space on Yahoo needs to be improved.

    Current options are :
    Free: 15 GB || £1.99/ mo: 100 GB || £9.99/ mo: 1 TB

    Can Yahoo come up with something like 50GB and amount payable quarterly/half-yearly/yearly?

    Why does it have to be monthly ONLY????

  9. Use of wild cards (??? or *) when recording spammer domains in personal block lists.

    When posting spammer domains on your suppression lists, some spammers are creating a large number of variations of their domain to escape Yahoo Mail spam filters. These can be just variations of prefixes before the domain followed by suffixes .info, .com, .org, and so on.

    Just one of these scammers which is being "creative" in this regard is the domain "dealzcahnge" with multiple combinations of prefixes and suffixes.

    Please allow the use of wild cards so that "dealzcahnge" can be totally blocked by entering .dealzcahnge." and users who just create a variation of the demain by entering a number (say

  10. Opt In to suppressing KNOWN spammer domains

    Yahoo Mail,

    I’d LOVE to see Yahoo Mail develop a “spammer” list and allow members to be allowed to “opt in” to have all emails from ALL of these low-lifes just blocked by Yahoo's mail server.

    In addition to increasing Yahoo’s costs, these spammers waste every user’s time, and computer power, by forcing every user to enter these spammer’s domains or email address into a personal block list.

    Then the user could simply block domains which are undesired (perhaps a former employer) or emails which are undesired (perhaps an estranged significant other or former friend).

    I understand that rules may…

  11. Feedback - New Mail functionality is not good. It wastes my time and frustrates me.

    I wish I could select several of the items in the drop-down menu RE: How can we improve New Mail. I used to be able to select multiple messages (mostly spam - please fix that noise) with a single click and delete them quickly in one fell swoop. Now I have to click each one twice, the app is slow to respond to both clicks, and then pray that an ad doesn’t pop up because that wipes out every single checkbox for the multiple emails I really want gone from my inbox. Let’s digress - how is all that spam…

  12. Downloading attachments

    Problem downloading attachments. For the past few weeks now, every time I pick an attachment to download, it goes straight into the downloads folder instead of giving me the option of where to save it to, as it did before. How can I change this so it asks me where to save the file?

  13. deleting emails

    when I delete emails off my phone inbox they are still in my laptop inbox. This frustrates me. Why do I have to delete them twice? Please make it when I delete from one device, they delete from all devices.
    Also last time I updated (about 3 weeks ago), almost 2000 emails loaded from 2025! Where were these and how do I delete them all at once - take them back please.

  15. Update and correct storage meter

    Subject: Urgent: Storage Display Error PreventingEmail(amazigrace@yahoo.com.sg) functionality

    Dear Yahoo Support Team,

    I am writing to report a serious system error with my Yahoo Mail storage display that is preventing me from sending and receiving emails.

    The Issue:

    · My total storage is 15 GB
    · I have permanently deleted 6.8 GB of emails (Trash and Spam folders are empty)
    · However, my "Manage Storage" page still shows "0% available" and states I need to "free up 8.2 GB"

    Your own system displays contradictory information:

    · "Yahoo Mail 15 GB"
    · "0% available"
    · "You need to free up…

  16. Better USER FILTERS

    Your current spam filtering is ineffective (i.e., completely worthless). You should instead allow us to set filters that (1) take precedence over yahoo spam filtering (or enable us to filter spam without having you redirect it first to 'bulk mail'), (2) immediately delete things we flag as spam, that is, without delivering it to trash, bulk mail, spam or anything else (I don't need to see stuff I know is spam), (3) you should allow us to set a spam filter that automatically deletes an email where ANY header or any other formatting characteristic we define (for example, anything having…

  18. Not everything should be a subscription. Issues with unsubscribing from email threads.

    First, Love the subscription tab so easy to see everything I'm receiving e-mails from! however, I've been trying to go through and delete the ones I no longer want to see and I can get through about 3 of them before they start popping back up under the subscription list and I have to unsubscribe again. When I click unsubscribe and confirm my choice I want it to stay under unsubscribed.

  19. More Sorting Capabilities

    It would make sense to select "Unread" emails, then Sort by Sender. Also, I mentioned several times over the years that you should also be able to sort Sent items by To/Recipient.

  20. calendar messages

    It appears messages received from the calendar are messed up. The body of the email will show for about 2 seconds then disappear. Crazy but that is the only email it does that to. If I forward the calendar message to another yahoo email account it does the same thing. If I forward to a hotmail account it is there. Also, the body disappears during the forward. I am using the current email under yahoo.
