  1. Delete key on my keyboard no longer works reliably to delete messages

    Yahoo Mail used to let me delete messages from my inbox by hitting the delete key on my keyboard, rather than clicking on Yahoo's delete button. Recently this has stopped working all the time. Sometimes it still works when I hit delete once, sometimes it works if I hit delete multiple times, and sometimes it doesn't work no matter how many times I hit delete. Can you please restore the previous functionality? Having to click on Yahoo's "delete" button is more cumbersome than just hitting the delete button on my keyboard.

    Could you please try using a different browser and see if the same issue occurs?

  3. New Yahoo email is nonfunctional, please return to the old version

    New Yahoo email is nonfunctional. I have NOT been able to use my email since the "mandatory" switch, last week. If I didn't have so much business related emails stored in my Yahoo email, I would just get rid of this service altogether. This is truly sad....seeing that I have been using yahoo for close to 20 years....I have never been this dissatisfied with Yahoo EVER....until now

  4. Push notification

    I am using third-party mail applications on my android phones. Those apps indicate that Yahoo mail doesn't provide push notification service att all.

    Here’s how to remove or block ads in Yahoo Mail: help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN15803.html

  7. Clearing History

    When clearing the History to Span & Regular E-mails, when the bar shows up, is it not suppose to do something that shows that the History for each are being deleted because it does nothing. I can't tell if it actually deleted or not. Please fix or go back to the original way of clearing. At least I can see that ALL have been deleted and not still stored in the mailbox.

    We recommend using a different browser like Chrome or Firefox. Internet Explorer is no longer a supported browser.

  9. Frustrated

    I have tried to find an email address to send yahoo cloned phishing emails and all I get is a useless expert system which does not help.
    Even this feedback is pretty poor as it leads the user.

    I do not have tome to go round and round in circles looking through things I can fix myself.

  11. searching

    I am moving away from Yahoo slowly due to the lack of robustness from the search results. I am copying and pasting exact email addresses that I am looking for FROM AN EMAIL IN MY INBOX and it won't show up. Also need to be able to search across ALL mailboxes. Like if I accidentally deleted an email (always).....searching should find it. This account was my very first email address, and therefore has sentimental value. There is also tons of history in this account but I CANNOT ACCESS IT because the search feature is useless, which means this account is…

  12. Allow documents to be attached

    Yahoo has not been working for days. Each time I try to attach a document, it gives me an error message. I am going to use Gmail instead. At least then I can attach documents.

  13. The new mailbox I was forced to use has a serious problem, it flickers on and off each time I move the mouse to do any action.

    It is upsetting to use..it flickers on and off at all times, each time I move the mouse to type, look at an email or ANYTHING the screen goes off and on and off and on. This is a serious problem and I will change to another mail provider unless I can have the previous settings restored.

    Please try the following:
    -clear browser cache and cookies
    -update browser
    -if the issue persists, try using a different browser

  14. internet explorer 11

    Stop forcing me to change to switch from IE (latest version) to Edge. Edge is an immature product.

  15. OAuth and Outlook

    Received eMail from Yahoo that security upgrades will not allow use of Outlook. That puts long time users of both AT&T mail and Outlook in a position to choose between the two unless this impasse is fixed.That is a market share strategy Yahoo/AT&T might want to reconsider and postpone until resolved.

    When will Yahoo and Xtra in New Zealand play nicely again? You are continuing to block each others emails which is incredibly frustrating for all users, totally unprofessional for both companies and preventing important messages from getting through. Stop acting like spoilt brats and deal with the issues - own them - you made the mess now clean it up.

    Click on the attachment and it should open the preview on the right side of the email window.

  20. Leave it alone

    you always try to improve your and by doing so, you make it worse. Your Browser has become one of the worse browsers there is. Every page you click on, you're inundated with ads, all sorts of ads that cover most of the page. They just pop up out of nowhere. You can't just read an article on just one page, you have to look at a whole slide show to get the whole story. It really sucks. But obviously, you could care less about what people think about your programs because nothing is ever done about it. You as…
