  3. Remove heading on the email page.

    Please eliminate the headings you have on the top of the mail page. I have an 17 inch screen and I even have a difficult time trying to read my emails. I only see a few at a time because of the headings. I don't need the Yahoo search bar or anything else. The email page should be just that. I don't like this change at all.

  7. Don't limit the number of spam addresses that can be blocked

    1000 limit on blocked spam addresses isn't enough. Increase limit or don't place limit. Yahoo needs to get serious about eliminating spam.

  8. Ads

    Ads. no doubt are necessary for any commercial organisation to survive or thrive. But they should not become a nuisance and iritation. They block the content and when we delete ithem, they reappearprear in no time
    I woudl like to mention the ad. of Macafe hrere..Ma. A cafe should realise that such methods adopted to attract subscriberswill have a negavive impact and in fact defeat the very purpose. I would suggest THAT ADS. SHOULD BE PUT UP IN SUCH A WAY THATTHEY SHOULD NOT BLOCK THE CONTRNT. THE SHOULD BE PUT UP IN ONE CVORNER AND SHOUL NOT BE BLOCK…

  9. Spam emails... I wish you can have unlimited Blocked addresses instead of having only 1000

    Spam emails... I wish you can have unlimited Blocked addresses instead of having only 1000, because when I have used the 1000 I have to go and delete the ones that I have Blocked..
    Plus away they could be reported instead of blocking them as well..

    Hi. Thank you for your feedback about spam. Please keep marking these emails as Spam so your personal spam filter learns to recognize them as Spam and send them directly to the right folder.

    The block feature is best used for people, not spam, since spammers can use spoofed accounts. Meaning what you see might not be the actual sender address. The more often you mark these emails as Spam, the more you train your personal mail filter to recognize them as unwanted. I'm sorry there is no quick fix for this issue!

  10. Can't get back into New Mail layout after leaving - trying to A-B test it

    I switched back to the older mail view to compare and now I can't find a link to re-enable the new system.

    Why to I get the 'We detected suspicious activity' comes up EVERY time I try to sign in? Is this a new thing? It's nothing but aggravation.

  13. how to block specific ad groups

    How can I block specific Ad Groups? I notice that instead of dealing with the issue yahoo has simply removed the option to say an ad is offensive. Pretty sad response. Ad revenue is important but some ads are for industries that lead to suicide, depression, drug abuse, and much more such as gambling sites. Ads are fine, just not ones that are offensive and result in harm to people. You are promoting activities that are addictive to many people and cause serious harm.

    I just checked, I thought all ads were blocked from getting rid of them - No,…

  15. I hope Yahoo Mail can add these 2 new features as security measures:

    First, restrict sent email from being deleted right after the email has been sent. Instead, allow a 24-hour (or at least 12-hour) time limit on all sent emails from being deleted so that the user may know if someone else (such as hacker) has been hijacking his email for sending out spam. And in case that is so, what kind of spam and to who will be known as such email will stay at least 24 hours in the record before it can be deleted or auto-deleted.

    Second, logins from different country IP should be recorded for up to 1…

    Hi. If you suspect your account may be hacked knowing the warning signs and what to do if your account has been compromised is important. Hackers may change the settings in your Yahoo Mail account to disrupt your inbox or get copies of your emails. You can review and secure your account further here https://help.yahoo.com/kb/sln2090.html

  16. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT COX.NET EMAIL SUPPORT FOR IMAP !!!

    PLEASE post instructions that are actually accurate and that are congruent with MAIL on iOS, or EMail clients like Outlook.

    Your current instructions are simply useless. It's been weeks without access to my email

  17. ads feedback

    Same ads display over and over again, although i reported those ads as offensive / inappropriate / misleading / etc. There are some of the worst ads on yahoo mail: wild animals in chains with dudes in cars, some famous actors caught in funny moments and with inappropriate titles, provocative pictures with misleading titles, etc.
    1) either you refine your ads considerably
    2) either you make the report functionality to really work; right now it's obvious it's a fake, you report the ad and the same ad is being displayed imediately.

  18. My email has my mother's name and birthday and you will not let me change it or tell me how it happened

    Why does my email have my mother's name and birthday instead of mine and I cannot change it, your customer service cannot answer. They tell me to delete it and create a new email. I cannot do this, it was transferred over to Yahoo from Cox Cable. I need the ability to edit ALL of my information.

  19. I did not ask for my email to transfer to Yahoo from Cox cable, now I have the basics with ads when I had full blown Outlook with all option

    I don't want ads, I also want my emails in Outlook that I paid dearly for with Office. I didn't ask for my email to be transferred to Yahoo, nor did I want it.

  20. protection premium

    I lost my account over the weekend and I was told over the phone I HAD to subscribe to Yahoo Protection Premium (I didn't want to do that but she wouldn't help me otherwise.) I was charged for it but I can't find anywhere to go to cancel it. It should come up under your settings. Really anywhere is better than wherever it is. I was scammed. $14 a month to basically just be treated better over the phone is nuts.
