  2. no send button

    I use a chromebook and it has numerous problems with the new email. For one, when I try to forward an email, there is no "send" button. I may just leave yahoo for another service.

  4. Message cannot be saved as draft.

    Using Yahoo! to access my AOL email account, I often encounter an error when drafting an email with an attachment. It can be PDF, JPEG, etc. File size is often less than 1 or 2MB. Most recently, my .jpeg file was 232KB. It attaches a broken file and returns an error saying "Message cannot be saved as draft." It also fails to send. Please fix!

  5. EMAIL PRINT BUTTON

    THE EMAIL PRINT BUTTON IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. YOU HAVE TO SELECT THE 3 DOTS, PRINT BUTTON, AND ALL THAT SHOWS UP IS THE HEADDER OF THE EMAIL AND NOT THE SUBJECT OF THE EMAIL. IN ORDER TO PRINT THE ENTIRE EMAIL, YOU HAVE TO HIT CANCEL AND THEN PRINT AGAIN. THIS IS CRAZY AND YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE TO SELECT 5 DIFFERENT THINGS IN ORDER TO PRINT ONE DOCUMENT.

  6. Emails Drafts being deleted

    Email drafts are being deleted when the "delete" button is accidently clicked when typing in the subject of the email. This is extremely frustrating as I always have to restart my email. I have lost work multiple times in the last week because of this. Please look into this issue, otherwise I might need to switch my main email address to Gmail.

  7. Search by Sender

    One of the key features I use quite frequently is the "Search by Sender". I get lots of emails from specific vendors like Rumble, Zillow, and other vendors that send me notifications. In the past, I click on the "..." and I can select Search Sender, and I can find all my emails. With the new interface, you have to open the email and select "Search Sender". Why move this function to an actual email? For EMAIL management, this capability should be a mailbox feature, not a specific email feature.

  8. Storage plans confusing

    I got a strange email from Yahoo - it says I have 200GB of storage under the new plans (I subscribe to Mail Plus mobile-only). It also says I am over my quota and need to pay for more storage. But when I check my usage using the newfangled tool, it's only 24.9GB. Am I over quota or not?

  10. Allow sort by size in email

    If you are going to limit storage size it would be great if, like with outlook, we could see which emails are the main culprits, like I can in outlook. Its often the back and forth with a big powerpoint presentation or photos from my sister that can be deleted to give me months of additional normal mail space. But if I cant sort by size......

    Think about it. Help us manage the size by deleting our BIG emails. Thx

  12. Draft email not saved

    What happened to "draft" emails? I accidentally closed an email I was drafting, and it disappeared. In the past, any draft was automatically saved in "drafts". But not this time. Please advise or correct. Thank you.

  14. reply to

    What the **** ever happened to the arrow showing that I've replied to a message? Why is it gone? Is there a setting so I can put it back. So irritating!! And why am I still seeing the search field for suggested improvements right here when it doesn't work? Who's doing your coding these days? How many customers have you lost with the New Mail? Why am I getting a message that my idea is being processed and will appear shortly? WHERE will it appear? You took away the list? If you can't even get this right, what else are…

  15. Yahoo Mail Search History

    There is no way to Permanently Clear your Yahoo Mail Search History, You can delete a mail history item but it will reappear when you next sign-on to Yahoo even if you clear all cookies in all Browsers.

    Please fix!!

    Thank you,

  16. send later

    I would like the send button or menu bar to show a "send later" icon. Sometimes I want to set the date and time of a message being sent to ensure it is relevant at the time received.

  17. Bug: Page elements can appear cut off

    Sometimes I will open an e-mail in the new yahoo mail for desktop and the page elements will adjust incorrectly. The entire message pane goes upward and the compose button almost disappears. I took a screenshot https://i.imgur.com/yWpjiCx.png

  19. Move Spam and Trash above Folders. Now, Spam and Trash are virtually inaccessible if you keep your Folders expanded

    I saw you currently have a hint about keeping all folders expanded and this is really important. However, this is unusable right now. When Folders are expanded, it becomes a nightmare to access the Spam folder and since your filters do not work (no matter what tricks you try to make them work), easily checking the Spam folder is a must. If you expand Folders though, access to the Spam folder (and Trash as well) becomes quite hard, especially when you have a lot of folders like me. Please, move Spam (and Trash) above Folders (ideally in the section with…

  20. links jump to beginning of email

    when typing out an email, and trying to paste in a URL, say for a restaurant menu - it gets shoved to the start of the email??? I cannot post a URL in the body of an email? Crazy, weird? WHY?
