  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. 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. 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!

  4. 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

  5. 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.

  6. ad appearance in email

    The ads that I see in my email threads are very misleading. They used to be distinguishable from my actual email and now they look just like an email message. They even have the check box next to them. Is this something that Yahoo Mail has done or is it that the advertisers are getting more clever with their appearance. If you can, please change it back. Thank you.

  7. whitelist

    It should be possible to whitelist certain domains from which I want to receive emails. Similarly, it should be possible to create a filter, which includes the action step "do not classify as spam."

  8. Prevent Scam Phishing Ads in Inbox

    Ad scams are happening a lot right now on your email Inbox ads which don't have a report option. Trying to trick seniors into clicking. Fix it or a lawsuit is coming your way. You're allowing advertisers to create a fake looking email with checkbox like it's mail and a from name like Mae Wilson or John Smith and then a message like "Good News for -my city- Seniors" and the malicious link takes you to phishing scam sites. Should be easy to weed these ads out even with AI.

  12. Yahoo mail folders

    Unfortunately on my latest yahoo mail app I can not open any folder. Previously I did not have a chance to choose the folder I want to move my email to. This time I can not select any folder - simply the list of folders is not visible. Please fix it asap

  14. Font size setting

    Users cannot make the microtext larger except by zooming in to the inbox, which then puts the date of the email far off the right side of the screen. When looking for an email that came in on a particular date, this is absolutely unacceptable. What ever happened to the setting to just increase the font size without driving the date to the extreme right of a window that becomes 3x wider than a laptop screen?

  16. Technical Assistance

    INQUIRY: Has Yahoo been in emails within the last three (3) weeks? A person has attempted to take over my cursor this past Thursday, Friday, and Saturday (April 2nd/3rd/4th).

    Why isn't there a way to change my password within the preferences pages?

  18. Not able to receive emails with attachments

    I'm not receiving emails with attachments. I've confirmed I have sufficient storage, the attachments are under the file size limit, and this is happening across multiple devices for my account. This is also happening for multiple senders trying to email me. This seems like a major bug

  19. Why does the screen "slide" to the right every time i try to move from inbox to filder

    recently you made a change so that when i drag an email from my inbox into a folder, the entire page "slides" and I have to be careful to not let go of the email (so it doesn't go into a random folder). Quite often it takes 2 or 3 attempts to move an email into a folder. This happens on any browser, any computer i use. it is beyond annoying.
