  2. Don't put a cap on how many email addresses can be listed as spam.

    I find it very frustrating that there is a 500 email address cap on spam emails. The amount of spam emails that come in daily are out of this world. I find putting a cap on what can be marked as spam ridiculous seeing as how if you want to add more you would need to remove a name from the list of 500 so they can continue to send you spams. 80-90% of the emails I receive in a day are spam. In the new updates the cap needs to be removed.

    Hi, the Spam folder is automatically emptied every 30 days. I'm afraid you won't be able to view the emails you're looking for.

  4. You should offer the option of having the inbox display the ACTUAL email address that each email comes from, instead of who they claim to be

    You should offer the option of the inbox displaying the ACTUAL email address that mail comes from, instead of what that person WANTS you to believe it is from. So, an email claiming to be from COSTCO, which is actually from addllkneionagon@gmail.com can easily be determined (even by persons with little computer literacy) to be spam. Protect your users!

  6. Notifications with Yahoo Mail app and IOS do not work at stated

    I have an iPhone11 and an iPhone 15 Max Pro, and both have the app Yahoo Mail

    Your instructions for having sound notifications work with an Apple device are incorrect.

    Let's say I want the Yahoo Mallot as the sound for mail to my @yahoo.com account and a different sound for all others. it's not possible to do what I just asked.

    It's not even possible to get the Yahoo Mallot to be an IOS email tone.

    I hope people realize that if these features are being talked about with investors that they know it's smoke and mirrors.

    Hi, we'd like to hear more about this issue. Could you please contact us at help.yahoo.com so we can look into it? We're also available on X @YahooCare.

  8. Filters

    Please add a mail filter for exceptionally long sender email addresses. Much of the spam mail that is unblocked comes from email addresses that are more than 50 characters long. The filter would block emails with sender addresses having more than 50 (or number set by user) characters long.

  9. how to set security and login options

    Trying to set up the security options is a nightmare. Finding where the security options is not from Managed accounts, its somewhere else which I cannot find. Can some developer clean this user interface up so that it can be used

    I may be able to get used to the new format, but please add the ability to WIDEN the "INBOX" area! Users can widen or shrink the folders box but the actual EMAIL AREA is not adjustable.

    Hi. To see your storage status, please go to Settings>More Settings then on the bottom left side of your page you should see it. 

  14. CHANGE INBOX FONT

    CHANGE INBOX FONT

    The new font for the desktop version of the inbox and reading emails is too small, too skinny, and is an eyesore. Either the font needs to be changed or you should have the ability in settings to change the font to something easier to read. Currently, you are only allowed to change your font in the mail you compose. You should be able to change the font in how you see and read emails as well.

    Side note: this feedback forum is using the same or similar font, and it is just as annoying and hard…

  17. Your tabs are using too much space

    There is hardly space left to read my emails or write back, too much space is used for your tabs, which I don't need or the bar where it says Yahoo. I need it as it was before, more space to read and write.
