  2. Eliminate Ad's

    Eliminate Ads. I waited to the last minute to make the change to Yahoo for my email because of the ad's and you haven't disappointed me. They are as bad as I expected.

    Yes, we do have a few ads in our app, but we also offer an ad-free experience (like many apps today) if you upgrade to Yahoo Mail Plus, but of course it's not mandatory. We will also share your feedback with the right team. Thanks.

    The best way to get rid of spam is to mark as spam, not delete or block! This helps with your spam filters and does exactly what blocking does, prevents that email from coming to your Inbox. So please keep marking as spam! It is free and part of regular Yahoo Mail. Thanks!

  5. How do I add JUST A DOMAIN NAME to the blocked senders list? I receive lots of SPAM emails from the same domain names day in and day out.

    How do I add JUST A DOMAIN NAME to the blocked senders list? I receive lots of SPAM emails from the same domain names day in and day out. Whoever is sending these SPAM emails changes the first part of the address each time and they don't reuse them while the domain name stays the same. Being able to block SPAM messages simply by domain name would be a big help.

  6. The useless New Yahoo Mail

    I really dislike the home page constantly switching between All Messages and their made-up categories. I don't find these categories useful at all. I want my homepage to be set permanently on All Messages. Is there a way to do this?

  7. SPAM should have proper BLOCK SENDERS

    Right now block Senders in Spam folder just works when very few mails are selected, but spam fills up very quick. There should be a block senders for all spam. Get rid of spam quick and block them forever instead of "gathering spam"

  10. Get rid of Primary and let me decide what is important

    Please let my email open to "all" and not "primary". Let me decide what is important. At least give that as an option.

  11. Notify users of changes

    This morning I went to Primary inbox to find changes. Changes I was not aware that were going to happen. I personally do not like the changes to the Primary inbox. Not a good look. Hard to find what I was looking for. Other major email service companies such as Google gives you notifications of changes. That would be nice if Yahoo could do the same.

  12. Objectional emails

    Sir/Madam,
    The emails are coming recently to my email containing obscene nude photos. I am deleting them everyday. The senders are different. So, it is now difficult to use this official email in such condition.
    With regards,
    S Sarkar

    Please do not delete these types of emails. They will keep coming to your Inbox. Instead, please mark these emails as spam. This will help your spam filters and keeps them out of your Inbox. Thanks.

  13. The number of emails in my inbox has dropped to practically zero.

    Can you find out if my email has been hijacked or re-directed

  14. The All category should be default on the mail tabs, not Primary

    The Primary tab often doesn't show important emails. The "All" category should be default, it's annoying to click the All tab everytime I open the mail. And on the mobile phone it's always on "Primary". This means when i'm not at my PC, again I don't see important emails.

    I'd prefer the featured be removed by default. I don't know anyone who likes it and everyone I know says they hate that feature.

    The Primary tab features just doesn't work half of the time.

  15. open at "All" not "primary" inbox nonsense

    leave it all in one inbox. it sucks the way you have in different boxes and automatically set it to primary.
    I want all emails in one box period. it makes me not want to use yahoo at all. at the very least have it go automatically to ALL and I can switch between the other weird look inboxes if i felt like it.

  16. Let me see the questions on a survey from my credit card company.

    My ideas are not radical. Do NOT send most of my emails to Trash. Please let me decide what emails I wish to see - NOT JUST YOU!

    And moving things that are from friends from trash to the inbox? Well, I think that would go without saying that friend's, my church's & really most everything I enjoy reading - those messages should not just go to the trash. How can you do this? And why?

    HI Stephen, we are not moving your emails to Trash, but it sounds like your account might have been compromised. We recommend changing your password and then checking your Filters under Settings. If continue to have issues, you'll need to contact our CC team as they handle account issues like this one. They have the tools to help. Thanks!

  17. Sort Ads Into Catergories

    Please do NOT show me any ads like Starbucks, McDonalds, Burger King, Nike, Coca-Cola, Hewlett Packard, Microsoft or Bath and Bodyworks or any company that support those Zionist IDF *******!

  20. Increase the number of Blocked Senders allowed

    My Spam box always has several emails in it that are definitely spam. We're only allowed 1000 blocked senders and I've blocked so many more than that. I go in and delete block senders just to be able to add other ones.
    The Spam emails are not what I need to see either - graphic subject lines, etc.
    Thank you.
