  2. show next message option displays previous message

    The "Show next message" setting displays the previous message instead of the next message. The issue is reproducible in Chrome, Firefox, and Edge and by clearing cache. The issue occurs using the move message function from the folder icon and the delete message function. A capture of the issue is provided and at 00:18s where the previous message is displayed when the show next message option is selected. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6o0oY9sGHaM

    Secondly, how do users respond for User Voice? Our confusion is there is no Reply option as shown here - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_K9bkHka6E3BORO3W1Tt_tvWy2x3CLKO/view?usp=sharing

  3. MAKE YOUR EMAIL SYSTEM WORK!

    After transferring from comcast.net, I have LOST EMAILS, LOST FOLDERS, EMPTY FOLDERS, and emails I send show in the SENT folder, but recipients including myself never get them and I don't get a message that emails were not sent, and I don't see any outbox which can show emails were not sent!!! SUPPORT IS TOTALLY USELESS!!!

  5. Subject: Security Concern – Ads in Delete Checkbox Triggering Access Attempts

    Subject: Security Concern – Ads in Delete Checkbox Triggering Access Attempts

    Message:

    Hello Yahoo Support,

    I have experienced a serious security issue with my Yahoo Mail account. Twice now, when I clicked the checkbox to delete an email (without opening it), the box contained an advertisement. As soon as I clicked to delete, it attempted to access my PC.

    This means hackers are embedding ads directly into the delete checkbox, so that when users try to remove unknown or suspicious emails, it triggers unauthorised access attempts.

    Please investigate and fix this urgently. The delete function should never expose users to…

  6. Support for old yahoo.com email users

  8. Feedback Comment Only

    I don't have an idea, just feedback. My email account migrated from Comcast.net. I find it very difficult to manage and organize my messages by folder structure in the Yahoo email exchange. I save a lot of specific messages and I have a complex folder structure in my account. In Yahoo's email tools, it is very difficult for me to access my folders. The task of browsing to and finding my folders is very cumbersome. The email tool is very touching and "jumps" out frequently, causing me to start all over again. For these reasons, I have chosen to leave…

  15. Be able to close AI search results or previews

    I am searching for a specific email sender. The software shows two large buttons in the middle of the screen of the latest two emails from this sender. This takes up the majority of my screen. I cannot close it. Below it, I only can see 4 emails that I need to scroll through. This is a bad feature. There needs to be a way to minimize or close this preview.

  19. attachment filenames with greek characters are not displayed on iphone

    Hello,

    I have been using Yahoo Mail via Chrome on Windows for years without any issues. However, during the last week, a new problem has appeared.

    When I send email attachments (PDF, DOCX, JPG) with Greek filenames, recipients using Apple Mail on iPhone cannot open them correctly. The attachment name appears encoded, for example:

    =?UTF-8?Q?...

    instead of the actual Greek filename.

    If I rename the same file using only Latin characters, the attachment opens normally on the iPhone.

    The files themselves are not corrupted. The problem seems to occur during the email sending process, as the filename encoding appears to…
