  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. 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?

  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.

  7. Allowing members to add other email accounts that's not google, aol or yahoo....

    I would like to add my twc.com mailbox to my Yahoo Mail Plus account. All your help comments says to "add account" to "other" but there is no option to add a TWC email. I can only see Google, AOL, and Yahoo options. I just talked to your HELP chat, who confirmed that "Unfortunately, the feature you are looking for is not available". and to add to this site to alert you to maybe work on it.
    thanks!

  8. Email Storage used

    Provide dedicated link or Icon to find out how much storage is currently being used. The pathway suggested in your "help"/guidance gave no options beyond "Add or Manage Accounts" and "Sign Out". IMHO worse than useless. If you're going to hand out what are effectively threats then at least have the information in them outside of the threats be useful.

  9. Implement a restore contacts feature

    Hello there,

    Recently some contacts were deleted from my account by an unknown process. I'm not sure how many of my contacts were affected by this. I contacted support to ask if the contacts could be restored to an earlier timeframe. Even something like 2 years ago would be very helpful. Unfortunately, they advised me that a restoration feature is unavailable.

    My suggestion is that you implement a restoration process for situations like mine. It could even be made available to the public via Settings. I realize that people may accidentally restore their contacts when they don't mean to, but…

  11. Provide option to turn off "bundling"

    You started bundling emails from senders I don't often open. I don't want this and when I reached out to the help desk they said I can't turn it off. I HATE it and have to unbundle the messages everytime. 1) please provide an option to turn it off and 2) don't force features on users - give us the option to use or not use new features.

  13. Request for More Efficient Help Options for Yahoo Account Problems

    Official Yahoo Mail Call Now +1 844-588-2505

    As a user of Yahoo services, I often encounter challenges when trying to resolve account-related issues such as password recovery, hacking, or unauthorized access. Currently.

    the support options available are limited and sometimes difficult to navigate, especially for urgent security concerns.

    I would like to request the addition of more accessible and direct support channels, such as live chat or phone support, specifically for account recovery and security issues. This would greatly enhance user experience by providing faster assistance and peace of mind.

    Additionally, clearer guidance and step-by-step instructions within the Help Center…

  14. Fix auto-complete when writing a new email and I want to add a contact

    Hello Yahoo Support,

    I am contacting you because auto-complete is not working in Yahoo Mail on my account.

    Previously, when I typed a few letters in the “To” field, Yahoo Mail would suggest email addresses for people I contact regularly, even if they were not saved as contacts. This no longer happens.

    I have already tried:

    new Yahoo Mail
    old Yahoo Mail
    Microsoft Edge
    InPrivate browsing
    checking and recreating contacts
    disabling and re-enabling Enhanced Contacts

    The issue remains the same, so this appears to be an account-side problem rather than a browser issue.

    Please investigate and let me know how…

  16. Uses too much memory in chrome.

    Both the new mail and old mail is becoming unusable. Both are using as much as 12 GB of memory in chrome, and slowing my whole browser down. Chrome is giving error messages saying the ads are taking too long to load. You need to fix this, or I will swap to google mail.

  17. Sorting of Filters

    Can you add a simple feature that will allow Filters to be Sorted Alphabetically? Right now, the only feature is a Move Up or Move Down button for Filters. This is okay if I have only a dozen Filters. But if I have 100 then it is very difficult to do! It is also very difficult to manage duplicate Filters when there are 100 or more - unless they are Sorted Alphabetically first!

  18. Sorting WITHIN Folders

    Within Folders, I can Sort by Oldest to Newest or vice-versa, or by Starred / Unstarred. Can you also add two more criteria for Sorting WITHIN Folders - (1) by Subject and (2) by Sender. This will greatly improve and simplify message management!
