  1. bring back a feature with yahoo mail

    I like the new mail layout but.. you know how the on the old version you could hover the mouse cursor over the sender of the email and it will tell you the email address that it came from so before you even open the email, you can tell if its something real or a scam.
    Bring that back! so i dont have to open scam emails!

  2. I'm done using yahoo mail because of the ads. It's gotten so much worse. Yahoo do better - you're scrambling to make money here

    Just stop with the ads and actually make this user friendly - it's legit not even that hard.

    Bring back the sort by unread option. It has disappeared from my Yahoo mail. The sort function is no longer available.

  6. filter emails

    Bring back "Filter Emails Like This" option to the Main Inbox when you hit the 3 dots in the top right. This was removed a while back, then brought back, then suddenly I noticed a few weeks ago this feature was removed again. PLEASE BRING IT BACK. It is the most critical feature I use to organize my inbox.

  7. Inbox should be the default folder

    Every link and every refresh brings me to my sent folder, not my inbox. This just started today. Extremely irritating.

  10. Get rid of the stupid tabs at the top!!!!! (Priority, Offers, Other, All)

    I have been looking for emails on my computer that showed up on my phone. Looked in Spam, googled missing email. Did not notice by default that you are not showing me all of my email.

  11. Please allow us to turn off the Group Email by Date Option

    Having the bar for Today, Yesterday, etc.. takes up significant screen real estate. Please allow us to turn this off.

    We have the "list" and "small" options to fit as many emails as we can onto the screen. But the date grouping ends up wasting as much as half the space on unwanted headers. The date is already shown in list view, we don't need groupings as well.

  12. Put ALL incoming emails into one Inbox like before March 5, 2024!

    On Mar.5 all new emails do NOT arrive in my inbox to see them. Yahoo sorts them into ‘boxes' I can't see based on categories that mean NOTHING TO ME. All this DELAYS or PREVENTS my access to important emails because I have to waste time hunting for them in places they should NOT be. This is INEFFICIENT & ridiculous! Yahoo can NOT possibly know how to sort emails in ways that are meaningful to ME! Stop making email harder & worse by "fixing" things that ain't broke! You keep ruining yahoo email with every so-called improvement that decreases efficiency…

  14. Bold the text on the new tabs and/or highlight tabs distinguishable colors.

    Like the tab ideal, but it needs to be more identifiable. The text blends in with other text. It would be helpful to bold the text on the new tabs and/or highlight tabs with distinguishable colors.

  16. remove scrolldown on profile bubble in mail

    Remove the scrolldown when you mouse over your profile bubble. Not only is it not useful, it's incredibly annoying and doesn't go away unless your mouse is in a very specific spot. It's absolutely atrocious.

  17. get rid of icons and put text labels

    I have no idea how to do a simple "REPLY" or "REPLY TO ALL", "FORWARD", etc... get rid of the arrows, they mean nothing to me, and PUT IN WORDS, like maybe "REPLY", "REPLY TO ALL", etc??? Why do developers insist on making the UI more difficult to navigate?

  20. sort by size

    I wish you could sort emails by size. Since there are maybe 5,000 suggestions on this topic it is safe to say you already know. This is the only mail platform I am aware of that does not provide this basic functionality.
