  3. Sudden 20 gb storage change-atrocious!

    It is INSANE that yahoo mail has suddenly decided to give their customers only 20gb of free data without any notice. I have couple accounts from 2001 & don't have the time to SUDDENLY delete so much data. I will no way pay for anything extra with yahoo, its definitely not as organized as gmail, searching emails on it is not easy. & now to top it off, this! Very disappointing. The least you can do is give customers some time to manage their folders before the change. Some email with a smaller fine print with this info. would not…

  5. No Category

    You still have not returned my email from Aug 30 through Sept 2. I will have to speak to my lawyer to see what we can do. You took my email out for no reason and won't return it so I will get my lawyer to get it.

  6. Make all the email folders visible again

    Instead of hiding the additional folders under a "Folders" menu item make them visible so that emails can be dragged and dropped to folders again. You could make the list of folders collapsible so the user can choose to see or not see them all at once.

  8. Spam control

    How about doing something to stop the absolute flood of spam going thru your service? I could care less about having all the storage but getting the same spam messages 40 - 50 times a day gets OLD.

  9. Need option to get rid of annoying undo popup that covers action buttons every single time I delete an email

    Right now every single time I delete a single message or mark a single email as spam, i get an annoying persistent popup over top of all the action buttons, which forced me to have to go over and delete the annoying popup every single time I delete a single email.

    There should be an option to turn this on and or off, but I could not find one anywhere, it makes the new yahoo email that is already confusing enough very annoying. I get tons of spam that your spam filter never catches and to mark it as spam…

  11. malicious email

    Please improve the protection against malicious emails. Everyday I get sent malicious emails claiming to be businesses that want to scam me and are sent into my priority email. No matter how many I block or report as spam, more keep coming.

  12. storage

    I have been trying to work on the storage of my emails for the last three weeks but every time I go to delete my archived emails the system says it has deleted all messages but I go back and it still has over 750,000 emails. How can I delete the emails to leave space for my storage? I am trying to delete so not to pay for the service. Many services are tied to this account.

  13. DEFAULT to ALL mails - stop hiding stuff from me

    i keep missing seeing so many important emails - PLEASE default to 'ALL' emails not some other random filter you chose. or let me chose that as my default. Why do you keep changing what already works for years. I just want a list of ALL my mails and i dont want YOUR interpretation of what's important or not.

  14. Make it so I can delete emails

    I can no longer delete any emails. It gives me an error message that says Unable to Delete the message. I'm really wondering why I bother keeping this account. It just keeps getting worse and worse.

  19. "Block spam permanently" disappeared - bring it back

    One of the greatest things in Yahoo Mail was that I could click on “all spam” and in the “more” menu, click on Block Senders permanently. In the last couple of days, I can’t find that option. Please put it back so these will never appear again, as it was earlier. Thank you.

  20. advisory function notes should self destruct.

    Advisory notes from vendor "such as successfully marked as spam" should disappear autonomously in 1/5sec or less.
