  1. Hate the appearance of (No new emails) on Yahoo! email tab in Chrome.

    This new appearance of (No new emails) on the tab is just clutter and makes the tab too long, now my email address is cut off.

    Having it show the number of unread emails was useful, and when there were no new emails in the tab, it was obvious that there weren't any new emails!

  2. You're not getting my phone number

    Stop telling me I'll lose my account if I don't give you my phone number. You'll never get it and if you decide to follow up on your threat, I'll be happy to go elsewhere. My number is private and NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS.

  3. Search Function Is Missing hundreds of emails

    I type in Sony. It misses Sony Entertainment.

    I then again scroll through my email to see a litany of Sony.

    When I type it in (all fields blank and "All Mail" is selected) it literally doesn't show it.

    Google, USAA, Terminix. This is insane!

  7. Chromebook

    Using any of several version Chromebooks: Your right vertical navigation bar remains hidden until I "hide advertisement" (which limits frequency of use), & even then shows too thin to easily hook & slide.

  8. scroll bar

    I'm glad I'm not only who is frustrated with the disappearing scroll bar. I'm sorry, but this feature is a nightmare. Seriously, who or what decided that the scroll bar should disappear? I feel like it has something to do with showing more advertisements. Ok, fair enough. Money money money. It's always the bottom line. But come on, this disappearing scroll bar is awful. It is what it is but I just wanted to echo the sentiment about this feature. I can't wrap my head around why somebody thought this was idea to implement.

  11. Horizontal add banner

    The main horizontal ad banner is blocking the inbox, you cannot see more than 1 email and you need to scroll down to check if you have more.

    Pretty poor user experience.

  12. If I mark as SPAM, don't offer Unsubscribe Option

    If I go to mark an email as SPAM, I don't want to unsubscribe from it. I think you have misinterpreted what others have asked for when they want to unsubscribe from an email in their SPAM folder that they know is not SPAM.

    I know this is SPAM, and honestly, I think unsubscribing from it will just inform the SPAMMER that mine is an active email address. Just move it to the SPAM folder and block it in the future!

  14. Mail?

    It would be nice if you people would figure out something that when I send an e-mail the people that I send it to. Would they automatically send a reply back to me that it was received?I'm getting tired of people telling me they didn't get it get my e-mail for anything I know that is bill. Would it be too hard for you to do something like that like a little add-on to let me know what time and date they got it? Shour would be appreciated I thank you for your time.

  15. passwords, security level, etc.

    Some emails need higher security, some don't. It is too difficult to navigate to find a security setting to even find out if I can change a setting so I don't have to receive a text any time I want to log in

  16. Wrong Item Selected

    When selecting a Draft email or other item, the item opens for reading, however when returning to the listing, the item is not selected as expected, so the user might delete a wrong item unintentionally.

    I constantly have difficulty locating a specific email. Someone will inform me they sent an email and even knowing the date it was sent, I sometimes don't see it. This is a neurological disability and my brain is unable to ignore the information from adjacent lines. Is there a way to color alternate lines, as with a table, to make the information in a line noticeably distinct?

  20. accessible

    this interface of yahoo mail is not accessible specially for visually challenge or blind people so please make it screen reader friendly and also follow WCAG 2.1 and remove unnecessary tables which can confuse us and other type of disability
