  2. Inbox Categories

    My categories are still selected, but it is no longer filtering all the advertisements into the "Offers" category, which is very frustrating. Not sure why this has been happening for the past few weeks. I have tried logging out, unchecking categories, then rechecking in the settings; nothing has worked.

  3. Go back to the old email

    The new yahoo mal is truly dreadful - hard to navigate, hard to find things. Stuff gets deleted or go missing.
    In short, Yahoo has turned a good mail system int a pile of total **** over the past few years. It's what Cory Doctorow called "EnShittification" - Yahoo is alienating users and customers at an accelerating rate.

  5. Stop deleting accounts and provide live help from Yahoo!

    There is absolutely no reason why someone should log into there account and emails have been deleted or removed due to inactivity. Stop deleting users accounts. Let them determine if they want them deleted and send them advance notification of these actions far in advance if they would like to delete. The choice should always be up to the user and account holder. Deleting an account and message is beyond horrible and insensitive and unethical. Especially when yahoo has made the error and the user has infact logged in within the year yet you do not have line agents available…

  6. Themes - dark is too dark (cant read) and light light and washed out

    Where has the customisable theme or colours gone. The two offered and not fit for purpose. The dark is way to dark (black) and light is too bland and lacks contrast.

  7. Can I read the email trail from the most recent email on top please.

    Can the conversation flow in a manner that the most recent message, whether incoming or outgoing appears on top of the chat then I scroll down to the older one. I keep on missing email responses because they are hidden in the older messages.

  10. Give us the optionto go back to the old version. You don’t pay me to BETA test

    Let me go back top the old version, this one is terrible. Get the calendar option out of my visual way, make the print larger.

    I won’t pay for this version, I will take my account to a different provider if i have to.

  11. Fix processing time

    I was forced to move my comcast.net email to Yahoo and Yahoo is slow and frustrating. When you click on something, it takes forever to load. I try to print from Yahoo mail on my computer and it is either blocked or takes forever to load or doesn't load at all. I hate the ads and I do not want to pay extra to have the ads removed. That is ridiculous and the ads slow everything down. I hate Yahoo and will never recommend it to anyone.

  13. Individual reply to responses in a thread

    The Android Yahoo Mail app no longer replies to the selected message in a conversation. Regardless of which message is selected, Reply always targets the newest message in the thread. This recently changed and makes group-email conversations difficult to manage. There used to be a reply option under the three dots on each segment of the thread that would allow you to reply to that person only. Please bring that back. Sincerely, everyone who manages multiple replies from group emails.

  19. Don't delete users' emails without their consent

    I came back to Yahoo just to find some old emails, but you've deleted everything ever sent to or from this account on my behalf. I will never use you again.

  20. Need the ability to hide the right hand sidebar

    Need the ability to hide the right hand sidebar; it takes up a lot of screen space, which is a problem when not in use. I also am not sure when or if I would ever use that functionality.
