Access
My idea concerns not really navigation, so much as access. Why is it that all of a sudden I cannot sign into my Yahoo mail account, that I have had for many years. EVERY TIME I have needed to access this the last 2 days, suddenly the password I just remade is no good! Have to start over again!! This is nonsense and a bunch of BS!! I have other email I can use, if you don't want to be straight up with this **** and stop messing with me, I can sure as **** go somewhere else!!!

Undo pop-up dialogue in the way of toolbar
When I delete a mail message, the "Message deleted UNDO" dialogue pops up and blocks further access the toolbar used to action the next message. You have to manually close this dialogue. I would prefer an option to disable this pop-up altogether. BTW - contacting support does not work in MS Edge.

Layout
Your layout sucks. It doesn't allow me to read the email. Fix this. I don't need the person's name in a column that large and I cannot make it smaller. Your ad space takes up half my email. I don't read the ads. I don't support your ads they mean nothing to me.

Real Estate for Scroll bars is too small to now make room for ads. Yahoo mail is very difficult and frustrating to use because of this.
Restore prior scroll bar functionality.

Please give a refresh button
Please please give a refresh button. It's so annoying to not have it. It takes off some anxiety from many people. Please bring that button.

Search by Folder for Bulk Deleting
Outlook has supported this functionality for years. I can, for example, search for "American Express" and every email that has American Express in the title, body, and so on will populate. I may only want to delete the emails with my search that are in my Inbox versus those that I've tucked away. Including everything without a means to limit the folder completely negates the benefits of bulk deletion.

SORT BY SENDER FEATURE, BRING BACK
Another thing, when you type at the top of the page a sender, it brings up everything that has ever been sent to you.

Please bring back the sort by sender feature, you have made more work for us
Or at least give us a sort feature at the top of the e mails to sort. I do not have the time to enter Jockey and then delete all of those e mails, and then enter indeed and delete all those. Do you get it? Stupid move

Ads are over the top right now.
I'm getting ads now that take up 1/3 of the space when I view a new message. If you continue to do this I will just delete my yahoo email account forever and use gmail only. thanks

Yahoo mail link at top of mailbox (web version) does not refresh Yahoo mail
The behavior of clicking the Yahoo! Mail for Small Business logo at the top no longer refreshes the mailbox. It is now re-directing to the Yahoo! home page. This is undesired behavior, please fix it and stop falsely driving up "hits" on the Yahoo! home page because of it.

Missing Scroll Bar
Where the heck is the scroll bar? I don't see it on my apple lap top when I am using google chrome and I do not see it on my desktop when using microsoft. The entire email system is useless without the scroll bar function, or am I missing something?

adding logo to email signature
It's sooooo dissapointing not being able to add logo to email signature! Yahoo you should enable this option! People running business want to look professional!

Add email block ability to mobile apps and/or clarify related support article
Your support article related to blocking email addresses in mail does not include that the option is only available in a desktop setting. Please add the ability to block emails into mobile browsers and apps.
Also, please update the support article:
https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN28140.html
with this current information related to the option only being supported in the desktop setting.
Thanks

Improve the move button
The move button above the reading pane gets you a drop-down list of all your mail folders. It would be helpful if it remembered recent moves and offered those folders at the top of the list.

Move search button away from item title
The magnifier icon in the item title area needs to be moved. It's too easy to accidentally hit when opening email. I was surprised to find that two other suggestions about this have been closed, with 0 comments. This has been an issue for years, at least for the way I use Yahoo Mail.

Add Move or Move To to right-click menu
Please add a Move or Move To option to the right-click menu. Outlook and Gmail both use it, and I am stunned each time I encounter it missing in my Yahoo Mail. (Then I remember that I have to click the Move icon at the top.)

multiple messages in chain
Navigation through large e-mail chains is incredibly clunky. You should be able to see a list of all messages - like you can in Outlook - and navigate through the chain using that list. Currently, it's endless scrolling, which makes it nearly impossible to make any sense of a message chain longer than 3 or 4 messages.

this new Yahoo is NO improvement on the basic version. Why are messages grouped in confusing clusters?
keep each message in inbox separate. And close a message when it has been sent (as it used to do).
