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.

Support reading mails
I can only see the latest 50 emails and I cannot open any of them. What is going on here?

You could... make my contacts list available.
I'm apparently using a "nonstandard" version of Yahoo Mail, Web based (using my browser), because I'm prompted at the upper right to "Switch to the Standard Version of Yahoo Mail".
When I click on the "Contacts" tab, so as to access my moderate-length list of contacts, I'm simply taken to a page saying only "Your mail is temporarily unavailable. Please wait a moment and reload the page. Learn more".
EDIT: In addition, when I start to type anything into the "To..." line, Yahoo suggests all manner of random trash email addresses I've never seen before instead of using the contact…

Stop excessive SPAM
SPAM was kept to a minimum and the last month or so my SPAM folder needs to be emptied several times per day for fear that I may miss and overlook an important message. What new settings did Yahoo make to my email account that is allowing this to happens?

Roll back some of the excessive multi-factor ****
I have a two part issue.
First, I did not authorize the new multi-factor authentication protocol that has recently shown up. I keep my accounts separate for a reason, so forcing me to access another one to get into this one constitutes a security violation and potentially opens the door to privacy issues.
Second, in looking at the "settings" option for a way to fix this problem, I find that there are virtually no settings available to review. You should be as ashamed of yourselves as I am of you.163rd ranked -

Stop the massive amounts of spam into spam folder and on yahoo
Stop allowing the massive amounts of spam mail daily. It does go into the spam folder BUT have to go through multiple pages several times a day to see if something I was expecting went there before I delete all. This is ridiculous. I prefer Yahoo mail over Gmail but may go back to using Gmail as they do NOT allow this massive amounts of spam multiple times daily!!

Printing
Make Yahoo mail so that you can print an email without the right side being cut off by blank ad space. You guys always mess with things and ***** stuff up!!!

Go back to the old version
It takes me twice as long to get thru my mail, moving it to another folder;; blocking addresses is very cumbersome. I want to see all my mail on the same page.

FIX THE NEW UPDATE FOR MACS
I can't get the new update for yahoo mail to work on my Mac computer. I have tried on both they are both updated to their latest software that's available to them which is Catalina 10.15.7
I feel like there needs to be an option to fix this otherwise I will be forced to move to a different email platform.
I tried downloading google chrome and that won't work either on this version of the Mac.

Need an option to choose how many emails per page
Unfortunately, I had to switch back to the basic version, which has about 25 emails per page, and when I click the check box to "select all", it affects only the 25 emails on the page, and no more. It's much easier to process and clean up 25 emails at a time. On the new Yahoo Mail, when I click the check box to "select all", it selects hundreds of emails. I hope it has an option to allow users to choose how many emails they want to see on each page.

A Fundamental Flaw with Accessing Emails in Folders other Than the Inbox II
Request #2: I have dozens of folders and most when accessed to search for specific older emails the system automatically defaults 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 most folders without the system automatically pulling me back to the Inbox. So most folders with more than one page worth of messages can never be accessed. This is detrimental to my ability to access historical messages needed, some for my financial livelihood. PLEASE FIX ASAP!
