  1. Get rid of ads across the bottom of the page

    Your new ad across the bottom of the page is a really bad idea. What's next? Another ad above it making just one email subject line visible?

  2. Please allow Planner function to be disabled

    Please allow users to toggle off the planner function. Some of us are very happy with existing calendars and find the Yahoo version to be an unreasonable intrusion with your scanning of our emails

  3. Fix the calendar display bugs

    Every time I add notes to an existing calendar event and save them, that event now appears TWICE on that day until I hit refresh on the browser.

  4. WHY are you allowing advertisements disguised as emails that take you to a virus

    I have sent this in before. It has become extremely concerning that yahoo KNOWS about this yet is doing NOTHING about it. I am seeing advertisements in my inbox they LOOK like emails but they are not emails. They are advertisements. It turns out it's not really an advertisement at all! It's an attempt to steal my personal information! This trickery is an attempt to steal my information. The advertisement has a box out to the left of it, that looks the same as the other boxes where you would mark an email for spam or to move it or…

  5. You can improve by not sending phishing scams in your ads !!!

    ← New Mail
    By not sending phishing scams in your ads !!!!
    You keep giving me ads that lead to a Microsoft Security Scam Popup. I don't know how to report the problem to you, but it is a one-line ad that appears at the top of my list of emails. The ad says (for example):
    "3 New Messages Ad Do Not Close Without Seeing Today's Inbox Update! There's a new inbox highlight...."
    Others say something about opening these emails before they are lost. Some might claim to be a dating site.
    But whatever, it sends to a page that…

  6. 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!

  8. Prevent ADs that look like emails

    STOP allowing ANY ADs appearing mixed in with my emails (Inbox, Deleted Items, Folders, etc) that have an image of a selection box on the left-hand side. They look TOO much like a valid email, but accidently clicking on them as I try to select emails to delete, inevitably opens a malicious website that, thank goodness, my anti-malware software has protected me from.
    But....WHY are you allowing them to attempt to fool us like this?

  10. Ads connected to a Virus should not be connected to email.

    There was an Ad that showed up in my email box with a area to the left to click on it labeled Smith. I tried to remove it and a redirect pop up telling me I was infected with a virus. the Yahoo Mail Ad from smith is the virus. The statement gave the notice of senior benefits in my area.

  12. Add Reminder

    Bring back the Add Reminder function to Yahoo Mail.

    It allowed me to select an email in the mobile app, use the menu to choose “Add Reminder”, select a date and time. At that date/time, there was a Notification, like the receipt of a new email, showing that email. Simple and powerful.

  16. expand the new calendar so it shows all entries posted for each day of the month

    I need my yahoo calendar expanded so I can see all my daily entries when I click on "month".
    Now it only shows partial sentences for the first 2 or 3 entries and the rest of the daily entries are shown "6 more".
    Please call me and let me know how I can expand the current calendar to show all my daily entries in their entirety.

  19. Inbox jump; New message format bar

    When I click on a message after I read it and return to the inbox, the position of the inbox contents is one screen down from where I was before. This makes it hard to know where I was in reading the list of entries. Why the jump? It doesn't happen when I'm deleting a message.

    Also PLEASE restore the text size and fonts plus the link option to the initial bar at the bottom of the composition page. I use these a lot and now I have to take 2 clicks to get to these and text color.

  20. Font sizes, color, bold, italics

    Yahoo basic mail ,simplified version of Yahoo Mail, could use some more complex features, such as:
    Themes
    Photo slideshows
    Formatting toolbar
    Drag and drop attachments or GIFs

    Especially font options like size, color, bold, italics. Thank you.
