  1. Ads with fake checkboxes are deceptive!

    I've noticed a lot more ads in the email folder/list view that have fake checkboxes. If you are trying to clean up emails, it is easy to accidentally click on one of these ads and open a new window/tab. I see this as a deceptive practice on the part of Yahoo Mail because it creates a perception that a customer is purposefully going to that ad. I recommend that you remove the fake checkboxes on ads. Thanks for listening!

  2. Calendar

    I wish I could restore my old Calendar full view. It was perfect, and much more functional than the new view which I do not like at all.

  3. Provide a way to monitor storage used

    You've told me today that I have a maximum of 15Gb of free storage, and kindly informed me that I haven't already exceeded that. But you haven't told me how to monitor my usage. That is surely a basic requirement if you are going to impose such limits.

  4. Language translation feature not available in Yahoo Mail

    Hello, I order some goods from a dutch company and the confirmation email sent was written in dutch. Yahoo mail UI should have the feature which translates the dutch text into english text.

  5. Spam mail, blocking and deleting in one step instead of two.

    A feature that is lacking in the newest Yahoo Mail, compared to Yahoo Mail Classic that works better for me, is when deleting Spam mail and blocking Spam addresses. In Yahoo Mail Classic, blocking Spam Contact addresses, is completed and automatically deleted from your Mail account….in the latest Yahoo Mail format, once a Spam Contact address is blocked, it is deleted from Spam but then put in Trash, and you have to delete it in an unnecessary step by going to trash bin to delete it, instead of being automatically deleted once blocked. Minor I know, but it is an…

  6. Verification Codes

    Verifications should be sent to a telephone. When trying to verify using another email account it ends up, need verify so verification code sent, when trying to log into the other account you need to verify, so another code sent to another account, but then when logging into that account you need a verification code. It is a continuous circle. Over the years due to change in business and personal reasons I have accumulated 7 different email addresses. Different things like Internet Security I have used these emails and used the address I was using at that time. Now over…

  9. Make the AI summary of my emails optional

    AI Summary of emails is a waste of time - first, my emails are rarely long enough to even merit a summary so I just scroll past them - waste of time! Get it out of the way. Second - I don't trust AI summaries enough NOT to read my emails, why should i have to read twice? Let us have a way to turn that off (AI is a waste of electricy and water and a cause of pollution, also, not worth it).

  11. Go back to previous format

    The new format, with the left side used to display the Yahoo icons, sucks.
    It was much better with the icons above, as they were previously.

  13. My idea is to leave well enough alone

    My idea is to leave well enough alone. I absolutely hate the new yahoo mail and cannot understand why it was updated to start with. I have spoken to others about the new mail and no one seems to like it. Was this a great idea by a new employee to gain attention to themselves.

    And we are all stuck with this new non-friendly mail that someone developed without first letting users try it before committing to it. BAD

  14. Bug: Deleting a draft deletes entire conversation email thread

    When I delete a single draft within a conversation email thread, the entire email thread is permanently deleted instead of just the draft. This is a serious data loss issue. Drafts should be treated as separate items within a thread and not control the existence of the entire conversation. Please fix this behavior immediately in Yahoo! Mail.
