  2. Please remove ''create split view''

    When I want to move an email to a folder, drag and drop, then the create split view appears. I hate that, I cannot work like this. Please remove that, it is not user friendly at all.
    Thank you!

  3. Be certain the supposed poster really is the poster.

    Yahoo is currently running an ad in email inbox that cannot be deleted. It appears to be from McAfee.com but it is really from https://protectmypcnow.com. I already have protection provided by a McAfee competitor, so I'm not going to bite.

  4. stop "phishing" - that's what I would call it

    Recently I have been receiving emails that come in as "name xx - Ad" The name-xx is different but the "Ad" is always at the end. These emails are sometime sexually explicit and the only way I can delete them is to swipt left. There is no box on the left side for me to select. There is no way to block them as can be done with "normal" ads. When I swipe left, up pops a notice to purchase an ad-free in box with Yahoo Plus to stop all ads. I have spoken to Verizon who talked to Samsung,…

  5. Check all ads integrated with the Inbox for malware and deception.

    Some ads integrated into the email list are not ads but know malware instead. Yahoo should check adds before placing them in the Inbox email list. Example is the McAfee.com ad. Which is not an ad but a fishing link to make the user think their virus software is needing updated and makes the user believe they have been hacked.

  6. Distribution Lists??????

    How can I set up a distribution list? I followed the directions, but none of my contacts (which I can CLEARLY see) show up when I try and add them to the list. I had everyone set up, and then poof! Now my previously set up groups are empty.
    OK, I'll start again. But noooooo, now I can drag, type, even THINK about adding contacts *** they seem to not exist? I can SEE MY CONTACTS.

  7. less memory intensive ads

    Users end up using ad blockers not necessarily to block the silly ads posted, but due to the poor engineering resulting is a browser tab that should be using around 150 MB of RAM rather than 2 GB, slowing the computer as well as ramping up the fan. Find the fix!

  12. Gross junk mail should not be shown, need a report ability.

    The calendar is perfect, but the junk mail that is allowed is horrendous and I cannot report it so that I do not ever see it again. It just keeps getting worse and is always visible.

  19. Advertisers are criminal hackers

    advertisers are outright criminals. Norton disagrees with the claims made on yahoo regarding having virus and expired subscrption. Yahoo continues to decline in managing as an honest and reputable business.
    The cybercrime that is overlooked has reached the point where legal action must be taken.
