  3. Date format

    As I'm from UK the date is in a different format to the US and other locations, the date on my inbox shows in the American format mm/dd/yyyy which is not preferred when I use dd/mm/yyyy. There should be an option to choose the preferred format.

  4. "Star" feature

    Making the star available in several colours would be a beauty feature for me. e.g. to colour star emails covering the same subject.
    i.e. blue stars for taxes, green for research, etc. etc.

  5. clicking box

    I am irritated beyond measure when I check a box, only to be TOLD I've checked a box... in such a way that this irrelevant message is covering some of the information I need to be sure I've checked the box I intended to check. This mostly happens when I'm trying to delete many emails at a time. Change This!!

  6. Phone

    I am really upset that I had to put up my phone number to get into my email. This is a huge invasion of privacy and I will be looking for another email service that does not require my phone number. My husband has already gone to Gmail because of this.

  8. Hello Gmail.

    I've avoided using Gmail as my primary email because Yahoo Mail's web UI was simply better. Until now.
    I'm not gonna continue to pay money for Yahoo Mail PRO, when I now get a better product with Gmail.
    Buh bye.

  9. Unable to see message layout at the bottom with larger font

    The Message Layout setting to see e-mails at the bottom is unusable when using a larger font in Windows (not just "zooming in"). As a former quality assurance analyst who is also visually impaired, a basic issue such as that should have been addressed before the new format was released. I will need to migrate Yahoo mail to Gmail where I can not only see the message layout at the bottom, but also adjust the screen to display as much of the message as I want.

  10. You should DATE your posts.

    You should DATE your posts. When was this posted? When will we have the option to go back to the original Contacts set up? What a monumental mistake you've made and I suspect will be losing many of your customers.

    Planned · Product Support (Admin, Yahoo) responded

    Hi there,

    Our engineers are working on incorporating Contacts into the new format. We appreciate your patience while we work on this.

    In the meantime, you can access contacts by clicking on the icon on the upper right side (small icon made up of a rectangle with three small stacked squares). This will…

  11. Cleaning of Inbox/Delete Mail

    As of now, I am only able to delete 50 emails at a time. I would like to be able to search/sort and delete all emails from a particular sender in greater quantity than 50.

  12. Please accept credit card payment for Yahoo! Mail Pro accounts with non-U.S. billing address!

    I have lived in Hong Kong and Singapore in the past 15 years, and have had 2 Yahoo! Mail Pro accounts and 1 Business Mail account for years. My wife also has had a Yahoo! Mail Pro account for years. I was shocked and dismayed to find out just now that Yahoo! now only accept credit cards with a U.S. billing address. Was the change made by the new owner, Verizon? Why? Don't you want my money? It doesn't make sense. If you still want my money, please change your policy back before my credit card expires in a couple…

  13. Banner ads at top of inbox

    The banner ads used to be replaced periodically and the old ones would disappear. Now they are moved down into the inbox and they never go away. There is no way to 'delete' them. These need to get gone. Can you fix this glitch? Thanks.

  17. Put horizontal scroll bars at TOP & BOTTOM of email messages

    Having to scroll to the bottom of emails, use the bar and then scroll all the way back up to MAYBE have your message fit the page is a serious pain in the a**. With longer emails you can't move the page back and forth to read them. I shouldn't have to pay just for the entire message to be shown on my computer screen. PLEASE, either allow us to see the entire email or give us some extra scroll bars!!
