  1. Eliminate AI summaries/synopses of emails

    Please get rid of Yahoo (via AI) summaries of my emails. I did not ask for this feature and it actually hinders my reading of the ACTUAL email. The Summary/Synopsis is superfluous, not necessary, not welcome. Please eliminate it. Thanks.

  2. Easier button to filter for unread messages - pin preferred filter options as single-click button?

    In old Yahoo mail, it was possible to list all unread messages in a single click by clicking the "Unread" filter option that was on the left hand side. Now the "unread" filter is inside another (small) menu with other optional filter options in the list. This makes it so there is now an extra step with smaller buttons to enable unread view, and then those same steps again to disabled the unread view.

    It would be nice if you could easily pin your preferred view options as a single click button on the mail bar instead of placing in…

  3. the new email layout

    the new mail is garbage. The layout is terrible and the functionality is awful.

  4. scroll bar on attachment previews

    I do like the newer attachment preview system in Yahoo Mail — However, you need a scroll bar or other navigation method to view these previews. Some document attachments can be quite long. The only way I can scroll them is by using the roll wheel on my mouse and if my preview need is to see something near the end, it is nearly impossible to get there in long documents. In that respect, the old preview system had the advantage

  5. By adding a reporting of spam section.

    Why is there not a section to report spam mail, instead of just simply deleting them as they reappear almost every day! PLEASE add a report spam section.

  8. Spam in Inbox

    Another wave of spam / scam emails getting through to the inbox. These are blatantly obvious spam / scam emails (most recently to do with Cloud storage and McAfee) with the sender and subject clearly written to deceive your spam / scam filters.... syntax and emojis embedded in the sender and or the subject. Should be easy to to detect.

  9. give the total number of messages in the inbox

    In the old version of mail when I hovered the cursor over the inbox it gave me the total number of messages in that box. Now it only tells me the number of UNread messages in a folder. I would really appreciate a feature that would give me the total number of messages in my inbox. Thank you
