  4. Yahoo mail needs upgraded softward

    Yahoo mail needs revamping. I've always been able to attach files, then I come to work one day and everyone said "can not save to draft". Did not do anything different. Same word docs I always use. Had to log in to my work gmail and bam, no problem. Now It suddenly works. Then today I can not download or print. Ugh! So I have to forward email docs to my gmail to download and print. About ready to assign a new work with gmail. Then I will have 2 work gmail emails. Guess if that's what I need to…

  9. Old Emails keep showing up

    All day long today, the email that I previously deleted keeps showing up. I click refresh to check my new email, and it asks me if I want to reload, changes that I made may not show up, and if I do not reload, the screen is blank. If I click reload, then all the old deleted emails are there again. Fix it, jeez.

  11. Poor spam interception

    Yahoo seem very poor at identifying obvious spam and when they do they send it to the spam box rather than permanently deleting it, leaving us to clean up their failures. I get casinos, marketing, dating sites all with very obvious formats that I have never had any dealings with. Step up and do better Yahoo - assuming that anyone from Yahoo actually reads these.

  12. How do i setup thunderbird for reading my yahoo mail. Been an hour and i already hate the yahoo web based email.

    I want to use thunderbird for mail so every click of my over 60 emails a day doesnt open another **** tab in the browser and it separates the over 30% of junk mail automatically. Dhorner@usa.net doccpu@cox.net

  13. Stop trying to force me to give a cell phone number, I do not have a cell phone.

    Stop trying to force me to give a cell phone number, I do not have a cell phone so there is no way to use one to get a security code or any other thing.

  16. It is extremely frustrating to be regularly locked out of email for an hour. This is because I use "In Private" browsing when opening emails

    I already use 2 factor authentication and I'm regularly asked to "prove I'm not a robot" so that should be plenty of security. Very frustrating Yahoo Mail! I have had to resort to "In Private" browsing, because attachments often fail to load to me email in normal browsing. Here's hoping Yahoo Mail will sort out this problem before I decide to move email provider. Furthermore, it seems to be impossible to contact a customer service person to talk about resolving this issue AND when I try to log it online, it keeps looping me back to the front screen so…

  19. Losing emails

    I don't know why you want to lose my business but I lost all of my 2023 emails somehow so I'm already moving my email over to Gmail. Tonight everything got put in the trash. I don't know why you are so determined to make sure I lose everything I would like to save but I have other options so I would think you would work to ensure your platform doesn't suck. I lost many tax documents for 2023 so anything serious already got moved. I don't trust yahoo anymore. Many years of good service but you are screwing up…

  20. It would be nice if the spam filtering system would only filter spam

    It would be nice if the spam filtering system would only filter spam those messages that you mark as spam and not anything other idiots are marking as spam requiring you to periodically go to your spam folder and mark them as NOT spam.
