  6. Where did the email 'filters' go?

    I give up. What happened to 'filters' under settings? And the return of pop ups? How retro. Can I go back to the old mail?

  8. NEED YAHOO IN ENGLISH not Spanish

    Yahoo, your "help" is NOT very helpful. I think you should NOT change the language just because we are traveling. Leave it up to the user to choose the language. My goodness! This is taking me SOOOO long to figure out. My husband just said, "Why are you using Yahoo? Change to gmail. I don't have that problem." Good point!

  10. REVERSE THE NUMBER OF DAYS FOR TRASH AND SPAM MAIL IS KEPT

    Please reverse the number of days trash and spam are automatically deleted. Currently trash is after 7 days and spam is 30. I would prefer spam to be removed as fast as possible due to hacking concerns so 7 is a better fit. Trash should be 30 days. I find that I go to my trash file to search for an email with important information that I need within a 30 day period.

  15. I hate it when you change the page layouts without giving an advanced notice with instructions on the changes

    It would be very helpful if you would give us prior notice with instructions on how to make the screen easier for us to read and to navigate.

  16. Remembering passwords issues

    My phone is linked to my email accounts to protect my email from hackers. My problem is having to change my password too many times, when yahoo is supposed to remember it, since I clicked remember me. Yet it fails to do so. If it says remember me, and a phone number is attached to the account, it should only go to that phone to send the code to gain access to the account. Not have to keep resetting the password.

    If we’ve noticed any unusual activity on your account or if you’re using a password that’s old or not strong enough, we’ll ask you to change it. By creating a new password, your personal info remains secured from intruders and imposters. For additional security tips, review the following:

  20. Turn off automatic downloading of embedded images

    By default, turn off automatic downloading of images in emails. Everyone knows this is the largest tracking mechanism in emails and puts the user at risk of being spammed. This keeps getting re-enabled and it is a huge security flaw.
