STOP THE VERIFY
I have 4 YHoo accounts for personal and business. There are times when I TRY to sign in to one account and you pop up for me to request a code from my other, verified account and when I TRY to sign in to THAT account you pop up and tell me to verify with the first account I TRIED to sign in to so I can't sign in to any account unless I go to a different device, clear history, clear cookies, dance in the dark, drink a shot of whiskey, then beat my step-children. WHAT THE **** YAHOO???

Lock the mail actions selections at the top of the inbox tab
When I scroll down an email, the delete, spam, actions buttons scroll off the page. If I want to delete the email, I now need to scroll up before I can delete the email. Need setting to be able to lock the buttons at the top of my emails to be able to minimize my button presses and scrolling.

Request: Displaying the total size of emails within a specific folder
Dear Yahoo Mail Support,
I am a regular user of Yahoo Mail and I greatly appreciate the service you provide.
I would like to suggest a feature that would be very helpful for managing storage and organizing emails more efficiently: displaying the total size of emails within a specific folder (including custom folders created by users).
Currently, there is no way to see how much storage space each folder occupies. This information would be very useful for users who are trying to manage their mailbox size and storage quota, especially given the large amount of space provided by Yahoo.

Automatic log out when closing browser.
If I forget to untick the "keep signed in" box the login stays ioen until I go into "recent activity" or "current logins" to close then. And that is even made more inconvenient by the extra boxes to tick or untick compared to what they used to be.It's a total nuisance with absolutely no benefit to me or to any other user for these previous logins to stay open.. Either when I log out or when I next login I want then I want previous logins to close.

Put it back the way it was before the recent change in how uploads are done.
Recently, adding photos in the oldest available version results in the message “Compose Failed The message you are trying to open is no longer available. Back to Inbox [link]”. When I click on the link, two new messages are in the inbox, one with the attachment! The other without the attachment. To add another attachment, I must open the one with the attachment and select Forward, then add the attachment. This combination of actions must be repeated for every attachment I want to add. 5 attachments, 5 forwards and duplicates. It’s a mess. Please put it back the way it…

A Fundamental Flaw with Accessing Emails in Folders other Than the Inbox
I have dozens of folders, very common. When I click on any given folder to search specific older emails the system automatically to the Inbox as indicated by the Inbox tab above the email messages. Meaning, I can not use the right arrows to go beyond page one of any folder without the system automatically pulling me back to the Inbox. So any other folder with more than one page worth of messages can never be accessed. This is detrimental to my ability to access historical messages needed. PLEASE FIX ASAP! A folder accessed should remain in that folder!

It used to be possible to check ALL the emails from a sender, then delete them. there was a little symbol... (magnifying glass) now, nothing. Maybe it's possible, but it's hidden. Why fix what works?

Chatrooms
Yahoo should bring back chatrooms. They are an essential part of a social network and allows people to chat with others locally, nationally and internationally. Chatrooms would bring back web traffic to Yahoo and generate increased revenue. Yahoo should bring them back again.

Set my sort preference as my default
I would love it if I could set my sorting preference as a default instead of having to set it every single time I open my email. It is a pain especially because I have to reset it every time I file an email after reading it. So if I have 100 emails, I have to reset my sorting preference 100 times! The options could still be available, but my preference should be set as my preference to be my default...
