  1. 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.

  2. Make it easy to clean up old entries in one folder

    Allow selection of all entries in a specific folder prior to a specified date (or a specific entry) to easily delete oldest entries rather than one at a time selection and removal.

  3. iPad app uses inconvenient yahoo browser instead of the default (Safari)

    When I click on a link in an email, the iPad app uses a separate yahoo browser instead of the default (Safari). It’s hugely inconvenient. I cannot access my web bookmarks. I cannot save the link itself to my bookmarks. I cannot reference other open tabs from Safari while reading. I cannot leave the link/tab open to look at later. And more that I cannot do.

  7. provide better help

    provide better help. Do not charge yahoo users to contact support teams via phone. Make chats & other support needed free to be able to solve issues. I should not have to "sign up" to receive help with my issues. I need to chat with an associate to fix my issue straight away & i can not do that because yahoo does not make it available. Makes me want to delete my yahoo account and discourage others from using yahoo. Why? because if you have an issue you cannot get help unless you pay for it. That…

  9. Disposable addresses

    Recently I have tried to add disposable addresses to my account. However the account software has changed my default email address from pns2sw-??.co.uk to pns2sw-??.com. If I use that then when I try to send a mail to that address it does not appear in my in box. I would like to return to using the .co.uk address, but I cannot find a way to do this.

    We no longer offer location-specific domains. All new addresses, including disposables, are created as .com.

  11. hijacked my email folders!!! I agreed to pay $12.XX / year for email that allowed me to have "folders" and you hijaced them!

    So I subscribed years ago to pay $12.xx / year to be able to have folders in my email.. and now you are holding them for ransom forcing me to PAY UP to have those folders accessible to me. If this doesn't change I will definitely stop using YAHOO altogether!

  12. filters

    Appreciating the efforts for adding and improving yahoo email with new user-friendly features.
    Besides that, i am not getting convince myself with the new way of filtering new emails option, it is too poorly constructed user friendly as compared with the older classic mail feature for filtering emails like this, it was fantastically easy, u just select the email and select the filter emails like this opiton from the top bar, u don't have to input much data manually To and from, it was in

  17. Switch Alias to be the Main Account

    I want my alias email to be my main account and I want to delete the old email. It only gets spam and yahoo is terrible at blocking spam. If I can’t delete the main account and use the alias instead, I’ll just switch everything to gmail like I’ve been wanting to do anyway.

  18. Why isn't block senders and delete spam working. Can some genius fix this.

    I keep getting spam emails that show up in my spam folder. I click choose all, go to more click on delete all existing emails and block senders. The emails come right back and the senders are not blocked?! I have individually send each email to trash. The present send I am trying to block is @gendafilem.nl Is there any cure for this situation?

  19. Expand Read/Unread and Filter options to include colors

    As many have suggested, the difference between Unread (BOLD) and Read (not bold) emails is often difficult to discern. I agree that an option to choose color assignment to Unread/Read emails would be good and a benefit to people like myself who have vision problems. Make Unread (BOLD)/Read (not bold) the DEFAULT OPTION and allow email recipients to choose separate colors of their choice using the color palette.

    Additionally, I would like to see you expand this feature to the Filter Options as well. Currently a filter can be set up to direct emails to a different…
