  1. New product problems

    Product has gone to ****. (1) My assistant can no longer access my account. (2) First line of my inbox never shows up. (3) Editing the vacation response box is next to impossible now. How can I continue using this product for my business?

  3. Please put an option in settings for turning off the videos permanently.

    The videos you put in each folder are very distracting and I, like a lot of other people, don't want them. It's nice that I can turn them off now, but that's only until the next time I open my mail. Please put an option in the settings so that I can turn them off permanently.

  4. What happened to Basic Mail? Now it's either New Mail or Classic...??

    Up until a few weeks ago, I could switch between New Mail and Basic, and did so whenever I needed to clean up my Spam folder because Basic gives us a block option.

    Now I only have New Mail or Classic as options, which doesn't give us a Block option in the Spam folder.

    Can anyone who uses Basic Mail, paste the URL of your inbox? It won't allow me access to your mail because it will require me to sign in. That should do it, I think (I hope :). Thanks in advance! <3

  6. SORT by FROM in Main Inbox

    I have tried many ways to use the SORT feature to view by the FROM so I can clear out my email easily, find important emails etc. If we can sort by date, unread, and starred, this should be an easy thing to accomplish. Your competitor has this function and it's user friendly and efficient.

  8. Bring back the color set options to the appearances section of settings

    Now there is no way to really change the background color package of Yahoo Mail as we could before. The various color sets (orange/red, blue/green, purple, etc.) are no longer available, and it sucks.

  9. Remove the phone number from my email when I hover over my name!!

    I could not find the incorrect phone number that is listed below my name when I hover over my name in the address line of an email message. I do not want to share my number in every email I send. The current number (which is incorrect and not mine) does not appear in my profile -- how can it be removed?

    Thank you!

  12. I am frustrated because it used to be simple to set up a vacation response. The menu with vacation repsonse does not appear.

    I do not want to give an idea just to say the instructions for vacation message no longer work for me. I have done it often in the past. But no menu with vacation repsonse will appear for me now. I have watched the video and read the instructions but it is not like that when I do it. Only circles and boxes re font size and colour . I can't find anything else in settings, not like it used to be. I have given up. No vacation message this time. I…

  13. How long emails stay in trash.

    I may have deleted an email that contained important information. I don't know, because I can't tell how long it is until my trash folder gets cleared. I would very much like to change this in settings. For example, I would set it to delete emails after they've been in there for a month, so if it takes me a few weeks to realise I've deleted an important email, I can still get it back.

    By default, both the Trash and Spam folders empty automatically to keep your account tidy. You cannot change the Trash and Spam settings.

    Trash deletion frequency – Trash is deleted after 7 days.
    Spam deletion frequency – Spam is deleted after 30 days.
