  1. Minimise adverts that are overriding the screen and can`t be removed.

    I need more space to work and less adverts taking up my space. I especially don`t want the adverts that cannot be moved or deleted. It was far superior on the previous version of Windows 10. Please change it back to where I had some control. Please remove the obviously illegal adverts. Stop breaking the law. Cheers Eddie.

  2. NEED ABILITY TO CHANGE "BASENAME" ON DISPOSABLE EMAIL

    ALL USERS SHOULD BE ABLE TO CHANGE THEIR "BASENAME" ON THEIR DISPOSABLE EMAIL ACCOUNTS. FROM WHAT I'VE READ MOST PEOPLE (INCLUDING ME) DID NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT WAS BEING DONE. THE FUNCTION USE TO BE THERE TO EDIT OR DELETE THE BASE NAMES. IT IS RIDICULOUS THAT WE CANNOT ANYMORE.

    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.

  6. Improve recovery algorithm

    I don't have access to my mail on a new phone because I need to recover it using sms, which I never receive. No one helped me. It's really sad. I'm switching to another email, although I've been using Yahoo Mail for over 6 years.

  9. 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!

    Have you tried general browser troubleshooting or a different browser? If not, please try these steps to fix this issue: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/sln2891.html

    For the missing emails issue, if you are using a mail client such as Outlook or the Native mobile app, emails may be deleted by that third party client. We do recommend accessing your mail via yahoo.com or the Yahoo Mail app to avoid this issue.

    To restore your missing emails, please go here: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/account/sln2552.html

  12. Date column format to include time

    I want the date and time of the email, not just the date in the layout. I don't want to open up the email to see what time it come in.

  15. 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…

  16. 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?

  17. Facebook and twitter logo still on a service that is discontinued by Yahoo!

    When I go to the settings page to link my social accounts, Facebook nor Twitter are options anymore. However, the graphic to the right of the screen still clearly shows Facebook and Twitter logos. Why show those if you dont offer that service anymore?

  19. 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

  20. sort by unread default setting

    This is not new, but there's no way no to vote for the "old." ...Please make it possible to choose "sort by unread" as a default. As it is, I have to reset it multiple times a day. This is a basic feature in other email platforms; it would be great to have it here as well.
