  5. stop asking me to support your add blocking, I'll leave Yahoo.

    Please stop asking me if I want to change my Yahoo and unblock my add blockers. I won't and Yahoo forces me too. I will end my account and go with a different one. It is apparent that other users feel the same.

  6. would be nice to inform us before you make change to super size format and if we could opt out!

    So this is the second you have made changes in the past few months. Do you think I am blind that you have now made the text super size??? I have looked everywhere to see if I can change it to a decent normal size and haven't found anything! Also the settings column could be smaller size too or maybe make it that there is an arrow so that if I need it all I have to do is click on the arrow and it will appear. Talk about a poor design…

    Hi, emails will stay in your inbox for as long as it is active. A mailbox would be considered inactive if you don't access it for 12 months.


    If that's not the case, please reach out at help.yahoo.com and we'll figure out what went wrong.

  12. How do I change name on outgoing mail?

    Same as others here - FRUSTRATED that I have changed my name on account but old name still appears as sender on outgoing mail.

    Your suggestions to follow these links (https://forums.yahoo.net/t5/Yahoo-Help-Community/ct-p/english) DON'T WORK. There is no "Accounts" listed under the Settings icon.
    Why has nobody fixed this? Seems like it has been going on for years and years. I use this account for online shopping, and it's sketchy when I email companies about issues and my name doesn't match.

    Hi. For security reasons, it isn't possible to update or change the date of birth listed on your Yahoo account, even if you entered it incorrectly when you first registered your account. You'll need to open a new account if you'd like your account to reflect your accurate info.


    If you got married, changed your name, or just want to reinvent yourself you can easily do it in Yahoo Mail by changing your sending name, that is displayed to your recipients when they receive an email from you.


    1. Sign in to Yahoo Mail.
    2. Click the Settings menu icon | More Settings .
    3. Click Mailboxes.
    4. Select the account you want to edit.
    5. Click under 'Your name' to delete or edit your sending name.
    6. Click Save.


    If you wish to change your profile name, sign in to the Account info page, click on the Personal Info tab, then click on ''Update…

  14. Your front is to small
