Yahoo Mail search function does not accurately work and especially on the first try
The search function of Yahoo does not work properly, major issues with it. Currently, if I search for a specific email address I have sent to, about 80% of the time, the response is "There is nothing to see." but I know there are emails I have just sent even today.
Then when I do the same search 2 or 3 times it works.
However, on any search, Yahoo does not accurately display all emails for that particular email. It is very inaccurate.
In addition, when I search for the content of an email, for instance I was searching for emails that I had the number 475 in it, it brought up emails that did not have this in it at all.

Got to love Yahoo Mail Team's answer below. I've been telling them for 10-15 years that when I search for something in, for example, "inbox," I will get results from every folder. Why even offer us the opportunity to restrict our search, if the technicians can't create the script to follow our instructions?? Just don't understand that there are so many flaws in our email, that Yahoo refuses to fix/address.
