New Mail Basic
Welcome to our Yahoo Basic Mail feedback forum! This is a place for you to help shape the new Yahoo Basic Mail experience. We review the most popular, feasible ideas from this forum to make positive changes to your Yahoo Mail.
Basic Mail provides base functionality like reading and writing messages, but does not include many of the advanced options. To use these features, we recommend upgrading to full-featured version of Yahoo Mail.

"If it ain't broke, don't fix it"!
My mail summary list is suddenly in a HUGE font with lots of EMPTY SPACE on the page. I want to see the number of emails listed as previously, with more visible at once! WHY HAS THIS CHANGED????
I selected "Go back to BASIC" but it is still enormous and very few messages visible at a time.
HOW DO I RESTORE THE PREVIOUS MAIL LIST FORMAT???

Lost email when deleted in Draft Folder
I was responding to an email that included multiple recipients. My response was meant to go to the original sender. However, it was automatically stored in the Draft folder. When I tried to change the destination email, I lost the email of the original sender so I deleted the draft to start over, BUT YAHOO MAIL DELETED THE WHOLE EMAIL FROM THE SENDER SO I LOST EVERYTHING AND CAN NOT RECOVER IT. DELETING A DRAFT SHOULD NOT DELETE THE ORIGINAL EMAIL!

Knock off the ID verification mania
Sick to death of identification challenges. Don't mind the occasional ID verification, but EVERY SINGLE TIME I go from any one of my accounts to the other, I have to go through ID verification AGAIN. The Auto Idiot had lengthy and useless suggestions. When I meet all of them, there is still no solution. Is there any resolution without dropping the accounts?

Allow the user to delete the folders and emails within it.
A screen shot is available upon request.
I receive the following error when attempting:
"There was a problem! Sorry, but we had a little problem removing this folder. Please try again".
I did try again, several times. This seems to be more than a "little" problem. Please allow me to delete the folders, or you should be responsible for any costs with necessary increased storage if you cannot allow the user to delete unnecessary emails and folders.170th ranked -
Stop blocking email sign in from different ip location all the time
On vacations or job travels and dynamic IP's from our ISP, we use different IP's all the time to access our email.
So, if the unusual activity doesn't compromise our recovery options or password change or spamming my contacts, just after logging in, it should not interfere with our access to the email account. Being the only reason acceptable where it would be needed the recovery email to perform the actions above, when accessing it from a different IP location.
Since 1995, I haven't trusted Microsoft's Outlook or similar apps, for the reason that they are all-time-logged and for security…
