    I can't tell the difference between unread and read emails. They are now all the same. And, all the "Cs" look like "Os". This is terrible.

    Have a way to close the right pane that has "Starred" and "Contacts". It serves no purpose for me and is just taking up space.

  4. Filtering capability needs upgrade now

    I've really appreciated the more sophisticated filtering Yahoo email has provided but it needs to be upgraded for easier use now. There now exists email preparation programs that takes a list of contacts and customizes spam to send individual emails to recipients thereby bypassing your Yahoo spam detection which apparently looks for emails sent to multiple recipients. Taking the time to set up filters for all the new and growing customized spam using the current filter setup is now too impractical and will only get worse. Please consider allow…

  8. Why do I have to have a verification code to sign into my account?

    I do not have 2 factor authentication. Yet when I need to sign into my yahoo email when I am away from my usual place, I cannot access my Yahoo email. It wants to send an authentication code to my recovery email. Unfortunately, other email platforms are doing the same thing. So I go in circles --- I can't access Yahoo because email code was sent to my other email. I cannot access that other email account because a code was sent to my Yahoo account. And so on. Which means I cannot travel away…

    Hi there! Thank you for the feedback! When you are traveling or switching devices you might be asked to send a code to your recovery options to verify location and device. If you no longer have access to the recovery options you can follow the steps presented on this article: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/add-remove-recovery-method-sln2058.html

  14. Adding a new or different email address. Make it a single process and NOT all over the place!!!!!

    I have been on my system for OVER an hour 1/2 trying to complete what I thought was going to be a simple task. All I wanted to do was ADD a 2nd Yahoo email address. I have click, and click, and clicked and click and followed every direction to make this happen but here I am an hr. 1/2 later and I still can not get this done. I go on your so-called chat that find it to be ABSOLUTELY USELESS!!!!!!!! This a screen pops up giving you a number to…

  16. I was told in Live Chat that filtering is not designed to deal with SPAM emails, only other types of emails ..... why??

    Yahoo has "filters" as a selection along with Mark As Read, Star, Block Sender, FILTER MESSAGES LIKE THIS, View Raw Message, Print, Add Sender To Contacts .... as I tried to report receiving 5 spam emails sent within a 2 min. period from the same email address of newsletter@kristall.freewww.biz by using Live Chat, I was told filters do NOT work on Spam email notifications (only with "other" emails. Why would Yahoo have it as a possible selection if it doesn't work for SPAM? .... under selecting a filter one…

  17. How about letting us customize the left sidebar?

    Hey Yahoo! How about letting us customize the left sidebar to allow us to reorder the "views" and the "folders" items. Right now all I can do is "hide" or "show" them. I personally would like to delete the views part, but being able to move it to the bottom would be good enough for now.

  18. automatically delete emails once they are 30 days unless the owner saves them in an envelope

    To stop from having such klutter in our email that makes it so overwhelming when we open it. why not give us the choice to add an automatic delete check mark on old messages that we don't want or sales adds. Like 2 weeks or 30 days. That way we use up less storage and it's not so overwhelming.

    Hi, you could improve some things that I can not do,
    if they were so kind.
    First, I would like to be able to sort the emails,
    I mean the order in which the side menu shows them.

    order those who go first, then the second, understand me
    I have to log out to do that.
    Second, the avatar of the email or of each email,

    You can upgrade to Yahoo Mail Plus or subscribe to Access + Forwarding to use the email forwarding feature in your Settings. Automatic forwarding sends a copy of incoming messages from your Yahoo Mail account to another email address. 


    If the option isn't listed in your account, it's not available at this time.
