  1. Contact List

    The new contact list is horrible. I cannot find where to add a new contact. It was bad enough that I had to go to the "old" email program to get to my list, but now it's completely useless.

  2. This new format is awful, I prefer the older one. I can't use this for my newsletters easily. Maybe I need to move to another email.

  5. SEARCH go back to the old, folder column not email provider column

    SEARCH in newest version is the pits. At least in the past when I did a search of my emails, the results had a column telling me which folder it was in. Now that same column just tells me it's in Yahoo - well D-u-h! Of course it's in yahoo. Bring back the feature of SEARCH that tells me what folder the found email is in.

  7. Lists

    After a contact search yields a contact, I can't tell what list they're on or IF they're even on one of my lists. Where's that info gone, into yahoo's thin-air of the past? And how do I know how many contacts are on a list? I have to COUNT them?????????

  8. Too many personal emails go directly to Trash

    Wanted emails, esp. those which are back & forth conversations, persons whose email addresses are already in my Contacts, are going directly to Trash instead of my InBox. I have missed important family updates and conversations. I have to check both Trash and Spam (if one is a problem, I don't want Spam catching stuff in error either) several times a day to make sure I am not missing an important email.

  9. Watch what you send to spam----I have to check several times a day and I always see emails in spam that don't belong there.

    Your performance is terrible---several times I have to go into spam and I find emails that DO NOT belong in spam. Watch what your doing with my mail.

  11. Put it All back the way it was!!!!

    When I copy a contact, I expect it to show the address, when I email it to a friend. Some friends, do not know how to make it visible. We should have the option on what we want. Not go change everything, and expect us to like it. Plus.....The address book, It was better on the left side then on the right side. Very awkward. I just Hate the new way. Love to have it back the way it was. So much easier. Some of us older people don't like change. I am one of them. I do like the…

  12. Contact list are terrible. Where does all the extra listings come from?

    Return to the old contact list format. Alphabetically by last name first. Where does all the extra listings come from? I have a list with thirteen (13) entries but you created thirty (30) entries. Return to the old Contact List format.

  14. Email deletion

    I use yahoo as a personal and business email address. I check my email often to see if there is any email I need to respond to, save or delete, and I do. However sometimes I don't get a chance to do that until I have about 3000 emails. There is a select all button. However, I only have the option to delete about 50 emails at once. Then go through the select process again. Why is there not a delete all button for the inbox, like the delete all trash button?

  15. I want to open my Yahoo with a password! I cannot open other devices without verifying with a differnt email or phone number! Hate it

    I want to go back to the password format, I cannot open yahoo on my phone because I have to verify on a phone number I don't have anymore or an email that is my work email. NOT every one can take their phone to work!

  17. Emails are being received a couple hours to a day later. This does not work for me especially when trying to change a password!

    I am not getting my emails when they are being sent out. There are particular times when an email gets released from different companies, and it never shows up in my inbox. It's not in spam either. It's shows up hours later or the next day. I am also trying to change a password on something important and that can't even show up on time. So now the email is worthless because of time constraints. This is a real problem!
