  1. Settings Out-Of-Date?

    I use Yahoo email across several devices and I must say, Yahoo email is the least dependable of the email systems I use. I cannot reliable access due to settings being "out-of-date". I supposedly fix them but, still no mail. What a PITA! Time to move away from Yahoo!!!

  2. maybe you could optimize the frigging site.

    not everybody has blazing fast internet to counter your bloated server generated html. i live in a VERY rural area, the only internet available is VERY slow AND expensive. it takes SEVERAL minutes for me to load any page in yahoo mail and the basic version doesn't have enough settings for me to use it.

  4. revert

    It is not possible to revert if your screen resolution is not great enough. For some reason the "Classic" option in the settings menu does not appear. I tried setting my laptop into portrait mode and clicked on settings and the "revert to classic" was available.

    Horrible, just horrible.

  6. how can we put our laptops and computers,etc in a small format as before. its to big and it needs to be all on one page.

    Printing to large. was better to operate when in smaller letters. or is there some setting we need to make on our equipment to use the new format. easier to read, especially on one page.

    There is nothing in settings to set up a signature or to go back to the old setup so I can set up a signature. And there is no "more settings" in my settings, just layout options. Very frustrating!!!

  9. Length of time for keeping emails in In Box

    I keep certain emails in my In Box that I prefer to keep for more than 6 months and they disappear. I cannot find them. Only one month at time will be retained in my In Box for some reason. I want the option to choose how long to remain in IN BOX.

    Hi there,

    Emails will not disappear as long as the account is active.

    If you are noticing that emails are being deleted this could be due to how the account is being accessed outside of yahoo.com or the Yahoo App.

    We see this when a 3rd party email client such as Outlook or a stock mobile app is being used.

  10. Users must be able to view email address rather than display names

    Provide option for users to view email address of sender and not display names. This way it will be very easy for us to identify sender as most spamsters mask their email address and display fake names. This will reduce the number of phishing attacks as most users will be able to identify the sender or atleast the domain names and avoid opening emails and clicking on email contents from unknown senders. It will take much less time to identify senders instead of hovering the mouse over their display names.

  11. two factor foreign

    I'm locked out of my e-mail through no fault of my own. It insists on furnishing a cell number, but I'm in the Philippines. It won't accept a ten-digit Philippine number and won't allow additional five digits for international access.

  14. Bring back IP login history when viewing 'recent activity' option in Security settings.

    Yahoo had this service back in 2016 when my email account was hacked. I'm shocked that you guys removed this.

    Gmail and Office 365 already provide these services.

    BRING IT BACK!

  15. I need to be able to delete old and/or unwanted emails. Please tell me how to change my setting to bring back this ability.

    I am thinking I need to delete my Yahoo desktop mail program and replace it by downloading a fresh program. Please inform me as to how I go about this...IF you think it is a wise way to correct my problem of not being able to delete old and/or unwanted emails. In addition, I can't access my settings folder. Are the two problems related? Please reply to my email address: rock55mky@yahoo.com

  17. Filters and the Bcc field

    In Settings > Filters > Add a Filter, please add the condition that includes the Bcc field. It could be in To/CC/Bcc. Most of my spam is when my email address is in the Bcc field. But I cannot create a filter for this. If you have To/CC, why not include also To/CC/Bcc? Thanks.

  18. Provide an OPTION button on the top right as instructed in "help" menu's. Make it clear how to block and unblock recipients email.

    Provide CLEAR and detailed info on How to block and unblock recipient's email. There is NO OPTION button under settings in the top right hand corner as stated in many of the instructions posted in search or forums. Very USER UNFRIENDLY.
