  1. Fix what you did to folders!!!

    I hate what you did to folders!!! I can't expand them to see more of the folder names. I can't even see all the folders, now- they just disappeared from view, wiht only key folders sowing. I want to see the entire folder list ALL THE TIME!

  4. Allow user to change default calendar display

    You recently changed the users ability to select the default calendar display. It now defaults to weekly whenever I open the calendar. Removing user's ability to set default mail and calendar displays is not an improvement. Please allow users to chose the calendar display for daily, weekly, or monthly. Firefox browser, Windows 10.

  5. Allow user to choose calendar default display

    You recently changed the user's ability to select a monthly as the default for displaying the calendar. Reducing user's ability to pick Mail and Calendar displays, isn't an improvement. Now whenever I open the calendar it defaults to weekly regardless of whether I have chosen monthly the last time I used it. Please allow the user to select the default calendar display. Windows 10, Firefox browser.

  6. Get rid of the ad that says 'you have 3 new messages'

    It's misleading and Yahoo shouldn't be allowing that kind of spam to be advertised.

  7. Restore the block sender feature, and spam-related issues.

    Hello,
    There was a feature in Yahoo! e-mail that allowed e-mail recipient to block sender. That feature is gone & missing for whatever reason(s). It should be restored and made available to e-mail recipients, including for suspicious e-mails and e-mails found in spam. Why was this feature removed or de-activated? Please advise, thank you very much.

  9. Get it to work

    this new version is a disaster in my experience. Way too many glitches. I'm typing along and bang it disappears so recover and try again. Do you support and will you continue to support the old version because this new one is frustrating to no end. If only I could talk to some one or at least receive a response that would help. Otherwise may have to look elsewhere due to frustration.

  12. Improve Spam filtering

    This is more of a bug than a feature. :-)

    Every now and then it appears that the spam filter completely stops working. I'll wake up to 5-12 OBVIOUSLY spam messages in my inbox. This will happen for a few days in a row, then subside... only to reoccur a few weeks or months later. I move/mark all spam messages when received so I'm doing my part to train the filtering algorithm, is there anything else that can be done to address this?

  16. Restore the Classic Yahoo Mail Interface / Provide Option to Switch Back

    The new Yahoo Mail interface is significantly less usable and disrupts my daily work. Unread messages are hard to identify, spacing is excessive, navigation is unclear, and message scanning is now much slower. The previous interface was far more functional, especially for users who manage high email volume on desktop.

    There is also no way to contact support — no email, no working phone, and no option to switch back, even though the help page claims this feature “is not available for your account.” This leaves users completely without a solution.

    Request:
    Please restore the option to use the classic…

  18. Bolder font

    Hello, overall the new look is much cleaner. However, the new small font that you have selected is almost unreadable and so please would you consider adding some weight or boldness to it? This is particularly irksome when selecting the recipient of a message as the actual email address is neary invisible to my 60+ eyes :) Thanks for the opportunity to comment
