  2. Coming Soon: Default to "ALL" Instead of "Priority"

    I will often let Offers and Newsletters pile up for a while, then go through them all in one go. But, annoyingly, if I open a message from, say, the Newsletters view, then move the message to a folder, I get put back into Priority view - argh! It should return to the most recent view I was using (Newsletters).

  3. Inbox Categories Options

    In playing with my email settings (and realizing I definitely prefer having the inbox categories disabled), I've realized that the option to presort/filter my mail with a quick button click is actually really handy. Here are some ideas for tweaking it to make it more user-specific.

    1. Please please please, let me set which filter I want as my default and/or allow the option to just go back to the last used filter. I hate that it keeps going back to the 'priority' filter.

    2. It would be nice to be able to select which filters I want being used. I don't…

  4. Header hides top bar of icons (delete, move, etc..)

    There are times when I am not able to see the top bar icons like delete, move etc on selecting a message.
    Also the buttons /icons are not fully align on selection. When I keep my mouse pointer at center of icon, it doesn't get highlighted & on clicking it, it will not work

  5. Duplicate attachments

    It seems that all my old emails now have the attachments duplicated. For example if the original email had attachment X, attachment Y, and attachment Z it now still has those been then it also has a second copy of attachment X, attachment, Y and attachment Z. This has just seemed to start happening in the last few weeks and I do not understand why. I have had the free yahoo mail service for almost 20 years and recently noticed that yahoo mail is now putting storage limits on this account type and wanting those with large amounts of data…

  10. Disappeared messages

    Dear Yahoo Support Team,

    I have recently logged into my Yahoo account after a long period of inactivity (over 6 months). I did not receive any warning or notification about my account status. However, I noticed that many of my previous emails seem to be missing.

    Could you please help me verify if my account is still fully active and assist me in recovering any lost emails, if possible?

    Thank you very much for your support.

  11. when adding STAR to an email, please stop marking it for deletion

    When I mark an email with a star, new mail also marks the check box so it can get deleted unintentionally. Please stop this. I star an email because it is important--not to mark it for deletion.

  12. MOVE option not working

    I receive messages from EBAY concerning automatic searches I have set up with them Most of these correctly go to the OFFERS folder but some go to PRIORITY. I select the message in PRIORITY and clicked on MOVE, select MORE OPTIONS. change the pull-down menu to OFFERS and click the MOVE button. The message disappears from PRIORITY. When I click to OFFERS folder, that message from EBAY is not there. I checked the other folder and it is not in either of them. If I go back to the PRIORITY folder, the EBAY message is there.

  13. Feature Request: Follow-Up Reminders in Yahoo Mail

    Dear Yahoo Mail Team,

    I’d like to suggest a useful feature that could enhance Yahoo Mail's functionality: follow-up reminders for emails. Gmail has an option that automatically reminds users to follow up on emails they haven't received replies to, helping to ensure important conversations don’t get lost.

    A similar feature in Yahoo Mail would be incredibly beneficial for users who manage busy inboxes and need a prompt to revisit unanswered emails. Having a built-in follow-up reminder would improve email organization and efficiency.

    I’d love to hear your thoughts on this idea and whether Yahoo Mail might consider implementing something similar.…
