Please give the option to hide the bcc and cc options in draft emails.
Basic Yahoo! Mail does not give you the option to hide the CC and/or BCC email address lines. Having them appear should be an option for users, at least in the Settings for Basic mail.

make it so emails in the inbox are not deleted when you delete "all" in drafts" box
Today I was sorting numerous unsent emails deciding which to keep and which to delete. I clicked all and then unclicked all I wanted to keep. Believing I was only deleting the drafts I clicked delete. I discovered it delete all of mail in the mail too. I had over 20 pages of emails I had specifically kept in my mail. They are now all gone. There are so many bugs in this new program it should never have been put out for use. If you are going through your mail and star one, any that you have checked for…

I do not like the delete button being right next to the spam button.
Put something in between, even a space. I keep sending things to spam accidentally and then have to retrieve them.

Block senders
The older version allowed you to hover over an email sender, see the address, right click it and add it to block senders list.No longer able to do this.The old version was fine and easier to use.Some actions take more than one click to do what was a one click operation.Progress?

Attachments should be attachments, not thumbnail previews that can't be opened full size.
The idea below mine is the same, but it won't let me "vote" w/o signing into something i don't want. Attachments need to have an option to open the attachments. People don't send them so we can only access a preview/thumbnail of it.
Note, I am signed in. I don't know what hte problem is with this feedback option, but it needs fixing too.35th ranked -
Increase number of messages on a page to 50
I get a lot of messages in a day. The inbox would be more manageable if I could see 50 messages on a page, especially since I like to sort them by sender so I could see what I want to read first.

Bulk Delete
Bulk delete of mail is an option that NEEDS to be REMOVED.
Caught once by this when message came up asking to about bulk when just one item was ticked. Message appears too frequently. Too dangerous and a needless option. Yahoo actually mass deleted my emails three times. It is very annoying. FIX THIS67th ranked -

Que no decidan actualizar la bandeja de entrada borrándome todos mis mensajes
Por favor no decidan ustedes cuando actualizar la bandeja de entrada de mi correo borrando todos mis mensajes. No es la primera vez que me lo hacen y cada vez me sienta peor
Please don't decide when to update my email inbox by deleting all my messages. It's not the first time they've done it to me and I feel worse each time.105th ranked -
Open attachments
I would prefer to open attachments sent to me without saving them first, let me open them first then allow me to decide if I want to download and save them or not.

Monetizing the Email Forwarding Function
Why are you forcing me to pay a subscription just so I can forward my email to another address? This is a basic function in any email app and the new idea to monetize is should be re-considered.

It should be simple to add a photo (ex: for a business logo) on your signature by copy and pasting into signature box in settings.
Copy any photo from your computer and paste into signature box for all outgoing signatures under settings. This seems like a simple idea, not sure why in the world Yahoo wouldnt offer this. To personalize your business, homeschool, etc..... Really makes me want to use Gmail instead.
