  1. PREVIEW

    Over last few YEARS, I enjoyed PREVIEW of ATTACHED FILES. Since a few weeks, I can still preview JPEG, but not WORD and PDF files. Are you pushing for more $$? or your GEEK went crazy?

  2. Remove "your inbox highlights" message

    I received this from customer support:

    I understand that you would like to remove "Your Inbox Highlights".

    Unfortunately, there is no option to remove this new feature.

    Does anyone know a way to hack this annoying New feature where yahoo mail keeps telling you things you already know?

  3. It was working. Why fix thing that were working???

    You fooled around and got rid of the folder edit and added that dumb view button I'll never use. Why? Put it back! You must be trying to create job security by changing things that were fine. If it not broke don't fix it!

  4. show if there are any mails in Spam

    It would be useful to have an indicator of the number of emails in the spam folder so that I do not have to keep checking the folder just to find that it is empty.

    Thanks

  5. Get rid of the pointless videos in the email inboxes etc

    It states that the videos posted are "the most exciting" whereas the same video about allergies has been posted for a long time. The idea of videos in inboxes is, in my opinion, a nuisance and a waste of bandwidth.

  8. Can you allow a user to set up subfolders in order to better organize the folders they have created?

    I would like to create subfolders by topic so I can organize my folders. I don't know if that option already exists in Yahoo.

  9. "Filter messages like this" should not include subject line

    The number one use case for this feature is when I want to redirect all marketing and advertising emails into another folder. Now imagine - which company on earth uses the exact same subject line for every marketing email?? Including the subject line as a default criteria for creating the filter basically renders the entire feature useless. Why would I want to create a filter that only targets one very specific mail that I will never receive again?

  14. you add block sender key for spam mails

    Greetings

    it would be very useful if the webmaster of yahoo mail adds the button to block senders on the spam menu

    this function is used in all mailboxes, except on yahoo classic.

    I remind you that we are in 2023 and it would be appropriate to update

    Thank you

  15. Auto focus folder search

    Please add auto-focus to the search box when moving email to a folder. When I click move, I would love if the cursor would auto-focus on the search box so I could just start typing the folder name without having to first make an extra click into the search box.

  16. match folder view settings / Customize (Sent) subfolder columns

    When I organize e-mails I've sent under subfolders, I am only seeing the sender ("From" column)
    I'd like to change the column to "To"
    In other words, I'd like to see to whom I've sent an email ("to" column) instead of just seeing repeatedly my name ("from" column)

    or an option to match folder view settings

  18. auto delete empty folders

    With AI ever becoming more commonplace, there must be a way to tidy up / delete empty or dormant mail folders? or run a search to find such folders, and then tag to delete all in one go? I have created so many over the yearrs, it will take fORe\ver, to check each one.. Yahoo reckon it cant be done.. lets prove them wrong! (and get a finders fee!

  19. Spam Folder new/unread mail indicator

    In Yahoo! Mail, the email counter/indicator (= a number in bold font/format/face or a number inside a circle) for new and unread emails should be made available for the Spam Folder (same as the other Folders, that is)
