  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. too slow. too busy. too cluttered. simple is better

    I don't like the Yahoo Mail that I used through my browser. It's slow. It's clunky. It's hard to stay organized. The old classic Yahoo Mail was good. ProtonMail is good. I have been with Yahoo Mail for almost 30 years. But I must need to stop using Yahoo Mail. It's no longer good. It's too busy. It's too slow. It's too difficult to stay organized. There's less width of the page now to write an email. Less to read the email. I don't know what to say. Classic was good. Simple is better. It takes me forever to write…

  6. Old Calendar

    The only improvement I can suggest is to BRING BACK the old calendar. This new one is hard to read and I must be able to print a copy-- the entire appointment does not show, sometimes I need addresses and phone numbers to show, whereas the old format permitted all that info. Again, please bring back the old format. It also prints front-to-back and uses more ink because of the coloration. Thank you.

  10. Too much space being taken up on the interface:

    Too much space being taken up on the interface:
    The top of mailbox. The interface. (doesn't matter, which browser used)
    At the top of the mail interface, where you have the icon that says "yahoo!mail", and it has the yahoo search bar, and place for the account name, and the "Home" icon, this row is taking up entirely too much space.
    The problem is magnified on a laptop, where there is limited space.
    If you could reduce the space taken up by half, that would be great. It looks like there is plenty of elements that could be reduced in…

  11. Allow us to resize inline images again

    Please allow us to resize inline images again. We used to be able to choose a smaller size instead of the full size that takes up more space.
    Please give us that option back

  12. restore the inbox

    you have wiped out all of my read but stored emails from my inbox. I have years of special email in that inbox that you have wiped out with this new "categorizing" method. No, they are not under "ALL", no they are not in "trash" . Restore my inbox with my saved "read" emails.

  13. MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR SCAMMERS TO ACCESS ONE'S EMAIL VIA USE OF THEIR FRIENDS' AND CONTACTS' LIST

    Sort of weird the amount of security required just to log in to one's own account after 27 years of having the same Yahoo mail account. I put Norton antivirus on my other computer but the one I a writing from runs Linux which cannot run Norton antivirus, so I don't think that is the issue. The whole internet security thing has gotten ridiculous with the number of steps one has to go through to login in. Why not change your systems framework instead? People are being scammed right and left, including my son, who was taken for around $60,000…

  14. Printing daily crossword puzzle

    For years, I have been able to use the print option to print the daily crossword puzzle for my wife so that she does not have to use all or most of the section in which the puzzle appears......for the past several days, there has been no "print" option, when I click on the puzzle, to print it......will the "print" option be reinstated soon?

  20. Too much security

    Why do I have to receive a text security code every time I log into my Yahoo e-mail address. Regardless of whether it's the same day and same device. I'm going through text confirmation multiple times a day. It's a huge waste of time. I might have to finally scrap this e-mail account and move to Gmail...
