  1. Delete email in bulk by year selections only

    Why don't you have a way to select emails by year to delete? A simple select by year: 2016, 2017, and so on and 1 click to delete. Currently you have to sort by year and scroll through then "select all" then delete. There is no way to do it with one click at the year level.

  3. Security

    I have multiple devices that access my yahoo mail and within the past year yahoo mail has become a PIA to deal with always requiring a new password even with 2 factor authentication. Absolutely obnoxious to use anymore. May have to quit yahoo mail after over 20 years.

  5. Serious Security Issue with SEND ONLY EMAIL

    How about security as a category?
    My mother recently had her account hacked, recently as in last night. We are not sure how they got access exactly but they were extremely sneaky and appear to be taking a new approact. They created an outlook account with the same email id as her yahoo id, then added their own id to the password reset settings.

    They ALSO added the outlook to the send only email settings, something I didn't even know was a thing, and here is the part you need…

  7. whats is happenning? Seems like you are in a hurry to be out of business

    I have been using ur services for years but now it has become a daily frustration with your personalised mail server which is onto my goginenigroup.com.

    Who gave you the permission to change my look and feel where I am paying huge amount for the mail server.
    Multiple times it asks me to relogin to get the new setting in place, but who asked you to do that? if you can you enhance but dont ruin things and frustrate

  8. Use of the word me!

    I have asked before to please use my proper name when I send emails to my mailbox. I abhor seeing the word 'me' used instead of my name preferably my full name. I am not in Kindergarten.
    It really looks lame if I forward something to a contact and the heading says from me...it is not the proper thing to do. Please just change mine if no one else cares! I am so sick of seeing it this way! Some of us like the things we work with to be Proper!

  9. 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…

  12. make the "undo move" popup optional in settings

    The undo move popup is slow and not useful to me. If I occasionally move something incorrectly, I can search for where it landed and move it where I wanted. I would like to be able to selectively remove it so that the move function just did what it was told rather than suggest I made an error every time.

  14. Order of the emails - that are floating The avatar of the emails is sometimes not shown, shows a syllable of the email.

    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.
    I have several emails added, but I can not,
    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,
    the avatar of the email is not shown,
    I have an image configured in each email,
    but in yahoo 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.

  20. Forgotten to change phone number but won't let me change it.

    I would like to change my phone number but it won't let me. It won't allow to change it, because I don't have the old number anymore and had forgotten to change it before I lost the old number.
