  2. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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!

  7. 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…

    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.

    Thank you!

    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.

  15. 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

  16. 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.

    If you’re not getting text messages sent to your Yahoo Mail, check to see if the senders are getting any error messages and then consult the phone carrier if needed.

  18. Why are our 'sent' emails not kept?? I just sent an email I wanted a copy of and my 'sent' box was empty. How can i recover this email?

    If you’re getting a lot of Spam to your Inbox, check out our post on the subject:

    https://forums.yahoo.net/t5/Tips-and-tricks/Getting-lots-of-spam-in-Yahoo-Inbox/td-p/329507/jump-to/first-unread-message

    If it’s all going to the Spam folder, then that’s expected. You’ll want to check with the sender to see if they are getting an error message when sending to you. If so, they will want to check with our Postmaster team to resolve it.

    https://postmaster.yahoo.com

    It’s always a good idea to double-check your mailbox settings to be sure they aren’t set to block or filter the address.

    Thank you!
