  1. Stop opening a new tab when I check my mail

    I just want my mail to open on the same tab, no need to always open a new tab. Just creates an extra tab to close out.

  3. inbox not showing all

    Bugfix: Inbox not having "all" email option, only some of subcategories.

    Few days ago things changed so that by default inbox shows "priority" that it seems to determine very randomly to just couple of emails, other available options are "updates", "offers", "social", and "newsletters", together these do not show even close to all mails, and other options are not available when using "inbox categories", despite settings listing "all" as one category.

    however "all" category is for some reason not shown at all in ui.

  4. Unsend an email

    An awesome feature to implement would be “UNSEND” for the email. So, for example, if we send an email, we have the option of unsending it if we make a mistake. I highly recommend it. Google has it, and it works miracles for the users.

  5. Show all emails all the time. Get rid of the "all emails" feature.

    Show all emails all the time. Get rid of the "all emails" feature. It's an extra waste of time click.

  6. Mail Settings not sticky

    The new settings are not sticky. They are wiped out every time you leave. Very annoying.

  7. SETTINGS not saved

    The Color / theme is not being saved when setting a new one. When I open a new session/tab, it goes back to the previous theme/color.

  8. Composing email

    My settings for composing an email are: Modern Wide - Medium, yet when I go to compose, the size is "small." Why aren't my preferences working?

  9. Hide view next unread message

    What is this obnoxious large circle covering a good bit of my message allowing me to skip to my next unread message? Garbage, absolute garbage. How do I hide it? I can't! Not in settings.

    When you introduce a new feature, give folks the ability to turn it off. This is ****.

  10. REMOVE AI SUMMARIES

    REMOVE AI SUMMARIES, or at least make them optional. In one case, the summary captured information from an email chain, and provided wrong information. It made me late for an important meeting.

    Other folks in that meeting were not using Yahoo email and weren't mislead by wrong information.

  11. Yahoo Mail is not usable at all. The Return key doesn't work in Mail, so you can't type paragraphs.

    The Return/Enter Key does not work at all in Yahoo Mail. You can't end a sentence and hit "Enter" to start a new paragraph. That's completely unusable for me. I now have to set up an entirely new business email and take all of my stuff off of Yahoo because it is unusable. I am losing THOUSANDS of dollars a day because of this problem. FIX IT.

  13. Get rid of the recipient in the address box because it takes longer than just placing the name and autofill at thatand go back to original.

    Stay with old address box with "To" rather than "recipient". The old way was much faster than going through all my contacts to find someone

  14. Get rid of the pointless videos in the email inboxes etc

    It states that the videos posted are "the most exciting" whereas the same video about allergies has been posted for a long time. The idea of videos in inboxes is, in my opinion, a nuisance and a waste of bandwidth.

  19. stop asking to verify every time it comes to logging in

    if you don't stop asking me to verify it's me every time I try to login,
    I'm going to delete my account. I'm fed up with you. Either stop it or I'll stop it for you.
