  3. Please do not post personal information (such as email addresses, phone numbers or names) on the forum.

  1. Flips to the top of the list when I delete an email. Why?

    When I delete an email from the list Yahoo flips me to the top of the list and I have to scroll down to fine where I was. It's one of many annoying features of this new update. Grrrr

  2. Give me BACK my email! You junked my account and contacted me at an old contact! Really blanking nice

    Give me BACK my emails! You junked my account and contacted me at a rarely used email. I had clicked stay signed in, so I didn't sign out of the blasted account. I WANT MY EMAILS AND CONTACTS BACK! Really blanking nice to do to people. I see I'm not the only one who has had this happen to them.

  4. Fix your spam filters!

    Shipping notifications and updates from the Federal effing government aren't even going to spam. They're just not arriving AT ALL.
    And yet, I am inundated with unfiltered actual spam daily. Get your act together, you choads.

  11. Amazon emails still going to trash instead of inbox.

    It's been six month and your still throwing Amazon emails straight to trash. Even after flagging them to go to inbox they still are trashed. Yahoo used to have a decent email.

  13. remove the constant unusal activity. ****** to have to keep logging into multiple email accounts to check mail.

    Define the unusual activity on my accounts.

    I should not need to log into multiple email accounts just to check my email. I have had yahoo account and my BACKUP Yahoo account both be flagged and require verification.

  14. make it were I can switch between my accounts like I was able to before.

    I have multiple accounts and can not switch between them. I would really hate to delete all my accounts and just go with Gmail but this is so not user-friendly.

    Please restore the navigation buttons on the bottom of the page. I can't delete or take actions without going back to the top of the page. It's not convenient or helpful this way.

  17. Emails flip back to top of the list

    When I'm looking at my emails any action, reading then closing, deleting etc,, causes the list to flip back to the top of page one. Why is that? Why can't I just stay where I was when I read/deleted the mail? And why do there have to be pages? Does anyone at Yahoo read these comments? Where can I read the responses? Where can I read the reasons for the changes in format?
