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.

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.

The same this happened sometime back when I was going ot have an inteview and needed to get the link to the meeting and couldn't access it. So eventually luckily called them and geot the link sent to gmail. My IT friends keep telling me to move to gmail as they are more reliable…

permit the generation of passwords for desktop apps
permit the generation of passwords for desktop apps. You disabled this without warning and I can't afford the expense of upgrading hardware and software. Working with mail and calendars on your web site is **** expensive at 1c+ per mb in rural Australia. It is also extremely painful with response times measured in MINUTES, not seconds.

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.
