  3. stop asking for my location?

    Since this is feed back and their is no way to actually converse with a human or have a human read this...

    I like most of your users prefer not to provide a large corporation with our location or any other personal information to you.

    How can we just stop Yahoo from demanding our location every time we want to check our emails?

  4. How do I create 7 days time delay before the Inbox folder email will move in folder to save automatic?

    Yahoo service should create a Time delays options for email users, so the Inbox email moves to the filtered folder by itself as per #s of days delays set..from Inbox to folder

  5. How to widen the folder widow to read more of the folder name?

    Enable sub-window width re-sizing to enable seeing more, or less of folder names. This would enable adding more info to the folder name (i.e. could show # of unread without blanking out nearly the entire folder name).

  6. Fix the up/down arrows in Settings-Filter which you can't see if you have a long list of filters that need re-ordering

    If you add a filter, it goes directly to the bottom of this list. To reorder among others in the list is impossible with this new Yahoo mail format since the arrows to reorder are located only at the top. Please make usable this so one can move around filters and click on arrows at the same time. Another suggestion: allow the user to click and drag the filter to the desired position in the list rather than just use arrows.

  9. UNACCEPTABLE FORMAT CHANGE

    unbelievable. NOT user friendly at all and creates a real waste of time to utilize. no avenue available to communicate directly w/yahoo without going through so many steps with questionable results. have never been able to actually get to yahoo. fix it or lose many users. ADVERTISERS TAKE NOTE: YOUR PRODUCTS WILL LOSE THE CONSUMER EYE

  10. Fixed font

    I sometimes receive columnar data in an email body. The option of a fixed pitch font (Courier, Menlo on the Mac) whould be helpful.

  11. Please decrease the add section or make it so that when that main body section is expanded it stays that way.

    The adds section is to large. although the mail plane can be expanded, it constantly gets shrunk down when the add section gets reopened. It is annoying to have to constantly have to re-expand the main body window. This makes it difficult for people who have vision issues and need that section to be as big as possible. I am thinking of closing my Yahoo account after 20 years do to this.

  12. How am I supposed to read an email when your new format only gives me about 15 seconds then goes to the next one?

    I cannot find a setting with this stupid new format that allows me to actually leave an email up long enough for me to finish reading it. This new format is disgusting.

  14. New Format Discriminates Against People with ADD

    the non-optional switch to the new email from the classic format poses a problem for people with ADD and is therefore discriminatory. The right hand column flashes ads at a rapid rate and is very distracting for people with attention deficit disorders. If you must show ads, do not show them changing rapidly or at least allow the option to control the speed. If yahoo will not fix this then perhaps pressure from the ADA (American with Disabilities Act) would be necessary. Also there is NO option to change to the basic format in settings even though the FAQs say…

  15. So godammn ******* slllllllooooooowwwwww.......

    Get rid of XML based based pages. XML downloads are huuuuuuggggeee, and the XML execution is slllllooooowwwwwww.

    Also, while you are at it, design it so Javascript is NOT required,
    and you can turn off Javascript in your browser and still use Mail.

  17. Change Font on incoming email, why would you allow us to change outgoing email and not allow the option to change incoming?

    Seriously you want me to describe an option on something you took the time LOL to change. Get some oversight on the options you allow, like maybe being able to change FONT size on incoming email? What a concept wish I thought of it. I realize you are trying to do what you think is best but as I have read you are going in the wrong direction

  18. You F'ing A$$holes keep F'ing up my email

    Why do you have to keep changing my email. If someone has had an email account for many years, and no matter what you do to the email, that person keeps switching back to classic - take an F'ing hint.
