    I'd like to be able to use my Yahoo (comcast.net) email with Outlook. So far, this seems impossible.

  2. Show Starred emails needs to display more than just 2 weeks of them

    Show Starred emails needs to display more than just 2 weeks of them--it did a week ago. I saved as draft a few important ones, it said SAVED and going in today--there is no sign of them. Yahoo LIED. Refuses to let me search flagged emails past 2 weeks old--which means this function is totally useless. Please stop screwing around with the design and re-enable the functionality that used to be there

    The contacts strip is way too narrow to be useful to the point that I would not be using yahoo mail if it wasn't already set up and in use.

    Hello,

    However, there seems to be hiccups and I did not receive some emails and I'm experiencing "disappearing" emails. Let me elaborate:

    Disappearing email: I saw an email from Aman Choudhary earlier this morning but half an hour later, it disappeared from my mail box!

    What is going on???!!!

  6. Currently it has the option to delete all your deleted messages in one go which that does not work it will not delete 60 odd thousand emails

    Currently it has the option to delete all your deleted messages in one go which that does not work it will not delete 60 odd thousand emails but then comes to the point of why exactly does it even have that many in the deleted folder when the deleted folder says it deletes emails after 7 days yet look here is emails dating back yrs still sitting here meanwhile at the top it says above all this these emails will delete automatically after 7 days yet they dont. Then you guys have the audacity to tell a person they are…

  7. IT'S SLOOOWWWWWWW!

    The "NEW" yahoo email EVERY SINGLE ACTION feels like I'm operating it from a base camp on Mars. Everything was working fine until a few days ago yahoo decided to MAKE me switch to the "NEW" email. I switched back to the old email immediately, but now I was switched to a totally stripped down useless version of the old email. Here's my idea: FIX IT YAHOO!

  9. stop flagging emails from people in my contacts as spam.

    I'm clicking "it's safe", it's from someone IN MY CONTACTS...and your system still thinks it's spam. stop that.

    also, I click feedback FROM MY EMAIL ACCOUNT PAGE. then I come here to complain about that not working right, and before I can submit I have to sign in again...to give a suggestion. this is ridiculous....

  11. When I click Mail, my mail should load

    Over the last week, I've had about a 30% success rate in getting my mail inbox to load (I'm on Chrome browser on a Macbook). Most of the time it opens a new tab, the header loads and underneath that is just blank.

  15. Ability to add email storage

    I've received warning on the capacity of my yahoo email account. I tried both options to add/buy storage: 100 GB add-on and 1 TB add-on. Non works and I received ""Subscription not available. This subscription is not currently available in your region." The "Help" is also not helping. Why?

  16. allow an option to display the full email address on the "to" field without changing it to the name in contacts.

    same as title. but after entering the email it defaults to the corresponding name in contacts. I don't want this. an option to keep the full email address, or display both, would be preferable.

  17. Make it stop blocking / filtering incoming emails without notifying the sender or myself

    Answer me Why the F does it appear your internal filtering is blocking incoming emails without notice, without waring to myself or the senders. Contact me to explain or you will lose a customer. Fed up with this happening simultaneously on my personal as well as business hosted (now Turbify). Please explain and fix. This is so stupid that it occurs on senders who I have sent email to. i.e. they can receive my emails but I can't receive theirs. It's ******* STUPID FIX IT OR YOU LOSE

  19. Forget it

    Also forget me and my personal information and this dummy account you made me. To this moment all I found was some kind of wrapper of gmail and some shady intercorp sharing of my offals. I came here for the specific need to get t an email account but I found this. And I came here because I know you from the old days and I expected to find something similar to what it used to be, but sadly I'm not surprised about what I found. Please give me a decent email account MANAGED BY YOUR SERVER ORFORGET ABOUT ME.

  20. Can you make the "check" boxes in the mail app a little bigger?

    When you are trying to check the boxes to delete emails, if you miss the tiny box, it of course opens the email, and then you have to close it, check the box and move on. When you have 50 emails to delete, it adds to the time. I know.......a little thing but it always seems to happen when of course you are in a hurry.
