  1. archive not syncing

    When I archive an email on my laptop, it does not sync to the archive folder on the iphone email app or the iphone yahoo mail app and vice versa. Thus, depending on where I clicked archive, I would have to specifically go to that device to search for it. These boxes should all sync togerther

  2. Improve Keyboard Shortcut to move emails to custom folders

    When you select an email from your Inbox to move it to one of your custom folders, as you know, we can press Keyboard shortcuts like "D then1" or "D then 2" etc until "D then 9". This a bit limited only upto 9 folders but I can understand the logical complexity behind this & thus I can kind of live with it. The main problem is, Yahoo assigns these 9 shortrcut folders automatically to the top 9 custom folders (sorted in ascending order alphabetically). It would be very nice for the user to choose/assign those 9 shortcuts to 9…

  3. Ability to Move One Email in A Conversation to a Folder

    Need ability to move one of email message that is part of a conversation to a folder. Currently, the only option is to move the entire conversation to a folder.

    There is an option for each individual message within a conversation to Delete Message, Archive, or View Raw Message. An option to move the selected message to a folder could be added.

  4. Refresh button for UNREAD

    There should be a refresh button for the unread folder. After a while, or few hours maybe, new emails are start coming into the inbox, but they are not showing up in the unread folder. I had to refresh the browser in order to get those email in the unread folders. Maybe you could put a refresh button next to the unread folder header where i can force refresh without needing to refresh the whole browser.

  6. Spam folder fix

    Yahoo tell the truth
    Yahoo you have directed me to your forum concerning where there are hundreds of complaints about SPAM. You obviously have no intention to fix it. One agent told me it can't be fixed. I suggest users switch to a new Email provider. Write to the Attorney General and your legislator. Companies should be required to provide good SPAM and virus protection.

    Your idea is being processed and will appear shortly

    "Settings" go nowhere
    Four times I've gone to "filters", under "settings", to stop a subscription newsletter from always (as of last week) going into "Spam". But still, every day, the several daily messages from this hometown newspaper go straight into "Spam". Every ******* time, I mark each message as "Not Spam". It does no good. Yahoo Mail is trying as hard as it can to be as ****** as Outlook. Plus, WHY do I have to "agree" to some obscure voice-command-acceptance protocol and "sign in", to comment, when…

  13. Option to turn off sent message being copied to SENT folder

    Option to turn off sent message being copied to SENT folder disappeared with new yahoo mail. The new mail automatically copies all sent messages to SENT folder. We need option to turn that off. It would be best if we have an option to turn that off from a particular source. Example - I have set my home security system to send e-mail from me to me when motion is detected. Now all those messages go to separate folder but same time all of them are sent to SENT folder also. This way it fills the folder with unwanted copies…

  17. delete folders without having to delete all it's contents - or allow a ONE button delete ALL content

    It takes too long to delete all the content in a folder in order to delete the folder - you need to make it easier for the user. Either allow the user to delete a folder that has emails stored in that folder or have an option for the user to delete all content within the folder - something - thinking about getting another email rather than clean up this mess!
