  3. Wow, that date separation ('earlier this week', 'last week') REALLY is a drag. Really breaks up the view for no reason.

    Date separation ('earlier this week', 'last week', etc.) REALLY is an interruption in the view for no reason. It's a complete drag and a distraction. I KNOW when emails arrived; the date is right at the end of the line! A real nuisance but we've been over this already, haven't we? And the trash can for emails is inconvenient. Should be where it was; near the sender area. The new features mentioned take you all over the page unnecessarily. Makes for inefficient operation. Trashes speedy work.

  4. Filter or block by domain

    I have another idea for Pro accounts. Allow us to block domains. I know this feature previously existed under Blocked Addresses, maybe this could come back as a Pro feature? Unfortunately, many spammers change the part before the @ sign daily so "Block Sender" is really of no use to mitigate these spam offenders.

    Also, if any of our Filters are set to send to Trash, then shouldn't they occur before the Yahoo Spam filter? I keep getting email (that I have a filter for), being sent to the Spam Folder. I don't want…

  5. Make it so 3rd party apps can actualy send and receive yahoo mail. Yahoo is not so important it needs DOD level security.

    Yahoo security is the most strict of all the free email providers. Users should not be required to use an app for each email service on their phone. A single one what pulls all of them.

  7. Cannot block spam because your block changes the spam email address and inserts a % instead of @. No quality control at Yahoo.

    Currently, you can’t block domains in New Mail. Since spammers use so many different addresses to send junk, it’s best to mark these emails as Spam rather than trying to block every domain. This helps our system block these emails better in the future.

    Our Spam filters override any filters on the account, so if something is deemed to be Spam, it will ignore filters and blocked addresses on the account and go there.

    Thank you!

    We always recommend users to have an alternate email address on the account as well in case of situations like this.

  14. Stop forcing changes on how mail looks

    Seriously, I rejected your offers to change settings and the appearance of my yahoo mail because I didn't want it changed. Stop forcing changes on your customers. I cannot stand the new options. I hate them so much that I am seriously considering completely abandoning my yahoo mail account. Leave everything alone, and let people go back to previous settings if they prefer those.

  17. Stop telling me it's an unsupported browser. It is a work computer. I can't change it.

    Stop telling me it's an unsupported browser. It is a work computer, and I have no control of what browser is used. What's wrong with you people? What high level moron made this decision? He/she is being paid way too much for their intelligence level. Not everyone is in control of their own computer.

  18. I have retired and I want to remove my "description" from my alias email

    I can't see a place where I can remove my job description from my second email. The second one as a sending address was suggested several years ago when I was in community college and I've used it ever since. However, now that I am retired, I no longer need the job description to precede the email. Can you help me get that off the sending email? Your box just shows me "extra" and I cannot get to the settings for that. Thank you.
