  1. Why can't I add another contact to a list?

    I have several lists. Today I made a new list, and added a few contacts. But it will NOT let me add another contact to the list. SO frustrating!

  2. Separate all outside sourced mail from actual mail that comes from contacts to read.

    I can't be bothered with reading emails that are not personal, so why can't yahoo create a column of contact emails from the emails sent from other sources?

    At the right side of my yahoo mail is an icon for contacts. I click it and they appear. I click Edit and the fields open so I can Edit the Contact.

  4. adding a single contact

    I don't see how to add a single contact, and their email. This is a basic need. The search contacts does not seem to be working for the start of an email address (that one has received and kept).

  5. Add "Sort" to Contacts Settings

    PLEASE add "Sort" to the Contacts Settings tab. We should be able to choose First Name or Last Name as our personal default.

    There have been lots of complaints over the years about not being able to choose Last Name as the default sort. I find it hard to believe that this is a hard fix to make. PLEASE just do it.

  10. Lists in contacts are awful

    I've repeatedly tried to save new contacts and failed.

    In the old version it was possible to assign a contact to lists; now this isn't an option (or if it is, it's impossible to find), so you have to go into the list and edit that by searching for and adding the contacts, which is cumbersome and a right pain compared to the old version. So if you want to add a contact to multiple lists, you need to edit each list individually - this is such a nuisance.

  12. make it easy to delete contacts and do not add contacts automatically

    put the "check" boxes next to the contacts so multiple can be checked and deleted at one time. Stop automatically adding contacts from sent email

  14. Sync contacts from phone app to desktop

    There's a process to sync contacts from desktop to phone yahoo mail app, but not the other way around. In business and travels, I've added many more contacts to the phone app than I have to the desktop app. But We can't sync phone contacts to desktop - they have to be manually entered....a pain!

  18. add ability to create email addresses using phone number and cell provider

    ability to create an email address using a phone number. for example:
    [insert 10-digit number]@mms.cricketwireless.net (or the appropriate provider). that way if you are at your computer and you want to text someone but your phone is a few feet away, you can go to your contacts, select who you want to text, write up the text, and send - rather than stop what you are doing on the computer, get up, find the phone, write up the text and send. also, even if the phone is right by you but you are in the middle of writing or looking…

  19. It would be good to be able to combine lists together.

    We currently have 6 lists that I made up when I was learning how to use your email site. I would now like to combine them all into one list. I am told there is no way of doing this.

  20. delete multiple contacts at one time

    Make a way to delete multiple contacts at one time. A way to select unwanted contacts to delete easily without having to click on each one and make several clicks---way to time-consuming.
