  1. Calendar Scheduling

    Whenever I click on the date, I want to schedule an event, the date is off by at least a day. Even when I amend the date and save the event is off by a day. So I have to end up dragging the event to the correct day. It's a BIG hassle to say the least. Please rectify this buy at your earliest convenience. Thanks in advance !!!

  2. Fix the Calendar!!!

    When I choose a day to add an event-it opens using the current day-not the day I chose. It also does this when I use the dropdown menu for adding an event or task. This is very frustrating & inconvenient; especially after years of choosing a day & have that day screen open.

  4. Fix message hovers on Firefox, esp "Delete" (Trashcan) Icon

    After deleting a message with the trash can hover, the next message pops up. On Chrome, the trash can icon appears as expected. But on Firefox, you have to move the mouse out of the pane (either hover over another message, or move right to the preview pane and then back over the message. This makes deleting many messages in a row painful. It's a simple implementation bug, but worth fixing as Firefox is still a very popular browser.

    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.

  14. 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!

  15. 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.

  16. 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.

  17. 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.

  18. Tabs are hard to close now.

    The new "tabs" are ****. You have to hover in just the right spot to get the X to close it, and then it sometimes disappears before you can click it and you have to try the hover move again.

  19. 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?
