Improve your spam filters. Gmail does a much better job than Yahoo mail
Please improve your spam filter. I continue to get spam email about vulgar topics even when filters are created to block them

Too much spam. I mark emails as spam and then get another email from the same domain the next day. I mark it as spam again. Guess what, another email from the same domain the next day (Explain It Daily, I'm looking at you). Be FAR more aggressive with blocking spam. Most users of Yahoo are legacy users (i.e., older). They are the most hindered and harmed by spam. Help protect them.

I don’t like that I can’t create filters on the mobile site and I am unable to access the desktop sit from my mobile device.
My spam is out of control. I will be moving away from Yahoo unfortunately.

Why don’t you vet your advertisers? I usually delete the ads you post in mail but recently I was about to open an email when one of your ads popped up and it opened up instead of the email. The ad was one of those ones for “singles” and I closed it immediately. The result of accidentally opening that ad have been extraordinarily frustrating. My spam folder is now receiving 4 or more emails a day that can only be classified as *********** in that they are attempting to solicit sex. Of course Yahoo doesn’t care because they don’t vet their advertisers, and they are hoping that we will cave in and pay them a monthly fee to obtain the ability to block senders. Luckily my phone has its own mail service and it allows me to block senders free of charge. The morons who send them keep using different email addresses so I still have to add them to the block list on a daily basis but I will not be paying Yahoo their ransom money they are trying to extort from their account holders. I am starting to think that they do this purposely to try and make us all cave in to their demands but I believe the simplest solution is to just stop using Yahoo Mail! That will solve the problem they themselves have created.

Je suis très mécontent d’Yahoo!, mais très très mécontent. Je suis saturé de spam que j’ai demandé à bloquer et vous ne le faites pas. Vous ne bloquez pas. Alors à quoi ça sert de mettre une ligne bloquer l’expéditeur si vous ne respectait pas mes demandes, ou alors vous êtes complice du harcèlement que je subis de ces sites qui n’amène rien de bien, ni de rien de bon. Je suis très déçu d’Yahoo! parce que ça fait maintenant bientôt. Un an Que je vous demande de bloquer ce site, il faut continuer les laissez-passer pour m’embêter et bloquer ma boîte mail. Si vous avez une réponse intelligente à m’apporter je suis intéressé à vous lire merci de bien vouloir respecter ma demande et vous prie d’agréer, mes salutations les plus sincères.

I get a half dozen emails a day with the same subject. There is a number replacing a letter, or bold or italic, or subtle differences. Every day I report them as spam, and the next day I get a half dozen more. No other email client filters so poorly. Fix it

I get scam emails every single day, trying to get me to buy gold from Elon Musk. Why do I have to move them to junk manually ever. Single. Day. Why don’t it learn? Why can’t I create rules?

I’ve received an overwhelming amount of political spam emails. I’ve unsubscribed, marked as junk and even blocked but they keep coming in by the loads. As a CA resident I’ve updated my privacy policy and opted out of sharing my information. Recommend for a filter of key words option to be sent directly to trash, junk or automatically blocked. These unsolicited emails are intrusive and congest my inbox to the point I’m searching for another email platform so I can delete my yahoo information.

It’s become absolutely annoying that yahoo cannot filter scams emails properly. Every day so many emails I have to manually move scam emails to Spam folder. I’m actually considering to close yahoo account to move on Gmail.
Totally not acceptable and it’s started about two months ago.
I’m doing customer service that your technical people if they were smart should be doing.
I block, unsubscribe and still see same emails it’s a joke!
Annoyed user that’s me! -

After repeatedly reporting that certain emails are NOT spam, the same exact senders get sent to spam over and over again. Your system can't recognize which email addresses i have indicated are NOT SPAM even after i flag them as NOT SPAM?!

Yahoo mail is pretty much unusable due to spam. There is so much spam, that your actual mail gets lost in it. You can try to mark it as spam, but it does nothing. The worst part is that I keep deleting it, and it just reappears all the time. Sometimes messages I deleted days ago just pop back up in my inbox, with the old dates of receiving too. I guess the company is in really bad shape and that's the only way of having revenue, but for that reason I've moved everything of importance to other email clients, and just check yahoo every now and then, to see if I received an email from something that matters, so I can move that account to another email client as well ..

Spam emails sent by multiple users who share emails cause my inbox to be overloaded with junk. I suggest that once we identify it as junk Automatically put in junk mail all from the same center each day. This will keep our email free from all the garbage from vendors who are advertising at our expense and time

Identify as junk all subsequent emails identified by recipient as junk into junk box each day.

Everything i find regarding this issue says to select settings, then more settings. Issue is there is no additional settings option available and i have no way to adjust the mail delivery.

It's kind of despicable that you all would make someone pay in order for them to be able to block an email address. Not even from a business practice but from an ethics point of view. No wonder yahoo has been trashed on. I can't believe it's legal to not allow someone privacy and the ability to not be bombarded by messages they do not wish to receive.... Ridiculous!

I receive an overwhelming amount of junk mail. I’ve been marking those emails as junk for months and they still come through. Now I block every junk email yet they all still come through. This is terrible.

Spam is readily available to open, Hundreds of fraud solicitations, but the one or two emails I want or expect are filtered and unopenable
