  4. folders open in view

    My folders used to be in view so I could view them and move mails easily. Now I need to click into folders to then select the folder to use. This additional click was not there before.

  5. Expand Folder list

    The latest version of Yahoo mail doesn't automatically expand and show the full list of my folder names. I would like this listed and not have to open a popup window and scroll down through all my folder names.

  6. "All" needs to be the default folder view of Yahoo Mail

    How can I make "All" my default box? Hate this new tool forced onto me ... just like I hated the new Yahoo.Finance forced onto me. For the life of me I cannot understand why Yahoo developers are forcing inferior products onto its consumer base. Just makes NO sense, at all. Unless, of course, the aim is to drive them off the platform.

  7. Why am I not getting all of my emails from my Cox email account?

    As of a few days ago (that I noticed) I am not receiving all of my emails on my desktop from my Cox email address. This is concerning as I get some very important emails that I only know that I am not getting here is because I do get them on my phone. It is important that I be able to access these emails because I need to attach items from my desktop in my responses.

  8. Email Summary, Why?

    Not sure if this belongs in Priority Inbox, but what's the point in an email summary? I can see the email right there and can read it. Priority Inbox? Now I have to trust that your AI isn't going to hide an important email from me? I think not.

  10. Cannot scroll to the send button

    Problem: When composing, the page will not scroll down to the "send" button any longer on any browser that I have. I have to make the zoom very small to get to the send button. I have bad eyes and cannot use my email that way. (PC, Windows 11)

    Solution: Either put a "send" button at the top like there used to be on older versions or fix the scrolling issue.

  12. Simplify format and viewing options.

    This format is terrible. Multiple inboxes and the inability to easily sort be sender is terrible. It's like gMail but worse.

  14. Email account new layout

    Email folder display - I do not like the new setup that doesn't show the folders down the left side without pressing the "Folder" button; how do I change this back to original layout?
    I do not like the separated headers "All Primary Offers Social Newsletters" - how do I go back to all emails showing under one main heading?

  15. Scrolling in emails

    When viewing email (on my Chromebook plus) by double-clicking it, I can't use my arrow keys to move up and down through the email. Space bar won't scroll by full page, either. These are standard web page navigation techniques. Please fix soon!

  17. Block Sender

    Please return the Block Sender feature to my Email. You are setting Yourself up for massive liability. Before, I could permanently Block Senders. Now, Yahoo removed that feature. These bad actors that would have been blocked, finally fooled me and I clicked on and suffered massive financial loss via identity theft. Everyone who had this happen after that feature was removed should start a Class-Action Law suit to recover damages from Yahoo.

    PLEASE RETURN THE BLOCK SENDERS FEATURE TO MY EMAIL.

    Thanks!
