  2. Intermixing contact accounts

    You have mixed my personal contacts from my cell phone in with another email account we have. I don't recall asking to have personal contacts mixed with our Yahoo account contacts.

  4. contact card

    There is no way to hover over an e-mail address and 'Add' or 'Edit' contacts as in the old system.

    In the old system the contact card had three dots, if you hovered over you could 'Add' or 'Edit. In the new system there is no menu on the contact card. It just says 'Auto generated card visible only to you'.

    This makes it extremely inconvenient to add new contacts and is the main reason I'm not switching.

  5. Put back the add contacts from the email.

    It takes TOO MUCH TIME TO ADD ADDRESSES NOW.
    I have emails going to my trash folder and spam folder that should not be there.

  6. One click 'add sender to address book'

    So simple - add a one click means to add a sender's email address to address book. After all Yahoo/Oath/whoever is behind all this seem very adept at grabbing people's personal information for their own commercial purposes, why not for the sake of user functionality when wanting to grab a sender's address to add to one's address book?

  8. In my contacts list yahoo put a default icon beside each contact. It is distracting & irrevelant to the contact. Remove them please.

    Please remove the default icons that yahoo places beside each contact in my contact list. The icons are distracting & irrevelant to the contacts. Or, at least give me the option to turn OFF that feature.

  10. Manage or Import contacts using Contact list no longer functional in New Yahoo mail for Desktop- Please fix the bug

    In the new Yahoo mail for Desktop, few days back I was able to import, manage contacts in the contact list.
    But it looks like this feature is no longer there. Can you please bring this feature back where I can manage contact in the list (Add, remove, import using CSV) . This is a big setback for business and non profit group which should be addressed in timely fashion.

  11. CONTACT SEARCH DIFFICULTIES

    cannot add a new contact unless we have email address. Some clients do not have email addresses. This is totally ridiculous. So therefore we cannot keep contact numbers. please change this - email should not
    be mandatory to add a contact

  13. Contact History

    When entering a contact name, the historical email address takes precedence over a correctly edited and saved contact email address. Also, there seems to be no way to delete that historical email address that is no longer wanted and should not be used.

  15. deleting contacts is a huge pain. scrolling through many contacts that i had years and years ago and manually deleting them takes time

    Ability to sort contacts by date added and the select box to the left and then mass delete contacts. Would give the option to delete dark data from yahoo servers to the individual. Alternatively, delete all contacts and then upload only new contacts via vcards through an email to yourself.

  19. There is no way to automatically add contacts to yahoo mail

    Why can't I add contacts automatically from my emails?

    Yahoo says to do below, but there is no automatic add in the new yahoo mail.

    In Yahoo Mail, mouse over the Settings menu icon Small gear icon | select Settings.
    Click Writing email.
    Select Automatically add new recipients to Contacts.
    - You can deselect this option if you change your mind.
    Click Save.

  20. Notes gone from contacts without email addresses

    Notes on contacts without email addresses are GONE. Made meticulous notes for many years on contacts without email addresses which are now GONE. Submitted this complaint to Yahoo Customercare and answer was “Unfortunately what you’re looking for isn’t possible in the current version.” They suggested contact you.
    Some of those notes are very important (like children contact info of elderly neighbors/friends). Other than elderly folks without email addresses, are many contacts without email addresses (i.e. pharmacy, take-out places, doctors). P-l-e-a-s-e fix before an emergency arises and I can’t make important calls.
