Ads in Yahoo Pro wrong!
I pay for Yahoo Pro - I shouldn't be seeing ads in my emails. This ****** me off.
Hi there,
As a Mail Pro subscriber, you should certainly not be seeing ads in your Mail. Could you please try accessing your account from a different browser and verify whether you see ads in your mailbox? Issues like this occasionally point to malware on your browser, often installed as a web browser add-on, extension, or plug-in.
Please see the following help article for more info:
https://en-global.help.yahoo.com/kb/new-mail-for-desktop/sln15803.htmlIf the issue persists, please contact Customer Care (unfortunately we cannot support individual issues on this forum). As a Pro user, you should see the “Contact us” link on the bottom left corner of help.yahoo.com

The proper way to handle SPAM is to allow users to setup rules
The proper way to handle SPAM is to allow users to setup rules which can be modified based on user preferences. You current rules seemed to have been written by someone who obviously does not know how to use email systems.
When you mark emails as Spam/Not Spam, that essentially teaches our system what “rules” you want it to follow. Check out this article for more info on why emails gets filtered as spam:

Is anyone listening?
I see all of these complaints and requests but I am not seeing any progress or update in the new system. Maybe it is taking long to code and fix everything but can we at least get some information on how things are coming along? We are in the dark and I just want to know if someone is actually listening.
Thank you.
We do take time to address user feedback as the situation permits. Some features can’t be added just now and others may be in the works. We do our best to balance what our users want with what the system needs.

huge SECURITY BREACH by Verizon for all Yahoomail users
I just figured out, that yahoomail. withOUT my permission, has been auto/saving all my DOCUMENTS. and there is no option to disable that auto/save. HUGE exposure. If I want to save a document, I do on my own drives and discs. Yahoo mail is so damned hackable and loaded with spammers worst in the email industry,. there has to be a new option so we can DISable auto saving a document. that's illegal, dangerous shame on Verizon
Yahoo Mail has a Documents view that organized all received documents in a single page for easier access. If you don’t want a document to show up in the search results, just go to the email(s) containing the attachment and delete it.
Thank you!

i have had a yahoo account since the 1990's & have been tricked into a setting i don't like; new, classical. I would like the old.
The old one has better colors, it has lots of emoji, paperless stationary and the color themes are more soothing to the eyes. I would like to switch to that account that i have had for a long time. Is there anyway i can revert what happened 8/30/18? Thanks!
You can follow the steps here to switch back to the previous version of Mail.

blocked images and seeking permission to show
I have a problem with the blocked images (seeking permission to view) as the ONLY time i get this message is when there is a C.O.P.S. (Concerns of Police Survivors) email/event or anything in support of the Police in general. This worries me. I do not like having to give my consent to be shown an image of a black flag with a thin blue line. It almost gives me the feeling that you guys do not appreciate law enforcement officers and the sacrifices they make daily. Surely I am misreading this whole situation and these are not the only…

Please revert my time sent to Pacific time. You have my email time stamp set at Eastern Time and I am in CA.
Please revert my time sent to Pacific time. You have my email time stamp set at Eastern Time and I am in CA
The timestamp on an email is typically determined by the computer’s internal clock or the location of your IP address. Check the location settings in Mail to make sure the correct timezone is selected.
In New Mail, go to “More Options” and then to the “Viewing email” section.

Get rid of the "Robot" Captcha please!
There's got to be a better way to do this than require me to play this game every time I log on.
The Captcha code requirement typically pops up after an incorrect password has been used too many times. If you see it pop up every time you sign in regardless, try these troubleshooting steps to fix the issue:

I CONTINUALLY keep blocking email senders and CONTINUALLY keep getting more from them. Is that 'block senders' just a ruse?
I CONTINUALLY keep blocking email senders and CONTINUALLY KEEP GETTING MORE FROM THEM. Is the 'block senders' just a Ruse? Am about to delete my yahoo account for this reason. Don't know where they are coming from, but I'm tired of 20-50 emails a day from the same people I keep blocking!!!
Our Spam filters override any filters on the account, so if something is deemed to be Spam, it will ignore blocked addresses/filters on the account and go there instead.
Thank you!

junk mail generated
Junk mail Yahoo is the cause of the excessive amount of junk mail they are selling on my details to these companies in the USA, if you unsubscribe the email becomes a self multiplying virus or even if you use the yahoo tools to block junk emails again there is something in the software that just multiplys
If you’re getting Spam email in your Inbox, then you’ll want to keep marking them as Spam and possibly review our post on the subject:

STOP blocking ICANN contact verification notices from Tucows!
Either Tucows RSP fails to send notices (seems unlikely) or Yahoo blocks them. This has caused me countless domain suspensions. It makes me wonder if this is possibly an illegal anti-competitive practice under FTC laws. If you cannot get your emails from RSP, you cannot verify contact info on your domain registrations.
