    I'm having a terrible time w/Ymail and logging in and out with my password on a basic level. I'm constantly hounded to use the 2 verification process. It's a constant loop of brokeness. I'm beyond frustrated. Please get rid of this.

  2. blocked email addresses and domains

    BLOCKED EMAIL addresses and DOMAINS:
    1. I need more blocked addresses and you don't tell me how to get more.
    2. I should be able to SORT my blocked addresses and domains, to make cleanup easier.
    3. I should be able to multi-select blocked addresses and domains for easier deletion.
    4. I should be able to EDIT blocked addresses and domains.
    5. AI needs to be factored in. If I add a Blocked DOMAIN, it should automatically remove all blocked email addresses that have that domain off my…

  4. Add "OUT OF OFFICE" in Settings. Prior to COID, I was working West & East Coast.Despite clear availability message "VACATION" was confusing

    Add "OUT OF OFFICE" in Settings. Prior to COVID, I was working West & East Coast. Despite clear availability message, "VACATION RESPONSE" in the header was confusing. These days maybe "WORKING REMOTELY" would be another good addition

  8. Unable to log in unless I make new password EVERY TIME

    I log in to Yahoo and AOL four or five times every day, always using the same computer for ten years, and have to get a text or email EVERY TIME and then create a NEW PASSWORD EVERY TIME. This is asinine. Since it is impossible to contact anyone specifically or even CHAT for an explanation, I'm left wondering if maybe Yahoo and AOL are looking for viewers to leave the sites. Has ANYONE been able to resolve this? It is very frustrating . . . and…

  9. Give us the option to chose weither or not we want our personal data to be shared!!!

    Just because the world is demanding everyone to have an email address now, is no reason for companies to steal our personal information. Where is our freedom of privacy, when you force all of us to freely hand over our personal lives to your prying eyes? It is a serious violation of trust and personal space, especially when you cannot stop hackers from stealing our data, and you want us to share more. It is illegal for people to tamper with your personal mail, but nothing protects us from…

  13. Let me set a default mail account

    I have two email accounts: one with my generic Yahoo username and one with Yahoo small business. With new mail, both accounts are available under the Compose button. But every time I log in on desktop, my generic Yahoo username account opens first. I never use that account. I want my small business account to open by default. Right now, every time I log in on desktop, it's an extra click. Let me set which one should open by default.

  15. filters

    Hi there,

    Upgrading the filters would be a good idea, a simple way to stop spam is to enable the ability to match the given name to the domain name. Most spam tries to convince you of its authenticity by putting the name of the domain as the sender name a simple if/else clause would make it easy to filter fake emails. It would be good if there was a "does not end with" option. Also it might just be me but I don't find the term "from" to be…

    Hi there. If there’s something unusual about your sign in or recent activity, we’ll ask you to go through another verification step after you’ve entered the correct password. This helps protect your account from unauthorized access. You may be prompted to get a verification code on your Yahoo app, recovery phone number, or recovery email address for any of the following reasons:

    Yahoo notices suspicious account activity.
    You’re using an unfamiliar browser or device.
    You’re traveling away from your usual location.
    You sign in while using a VPN or a proxy server.
    You’ve logged in with a private or incognito window.
    There are many attempts to sign in with incorrect passwords.
    The “First time signing in from this device” message appears.
    You’ve cleared your browser history or data cache including cookies.

  19. subscriptions

    Need to have the ability to re-subscribe to emails that you have accidently unsubscribed to.

    I no longer get my payslips and other invoices because of this not being able to be restored.
