  1. Notification Prompt Irritant

    Stop the "notification" popup! It appears several times a day when I'm checking mail. Checking "Maybe Later" doesn't cut it. I already get a notification on my phone, I DO NOT NEED A DESKTOP EMAIL NOTIFICATION!!! What an annoyance!

  2. Filtering is fine, but by default, I want to see All, not Priority

    Filtering is fine, but by default, I want to see All, not Priority. How do I fix this? If I want priority, I can click on it later. I've missed important emails that your 'AI' nonsense put in another category.

  3. Email lists

    I formed some groups of email lists, so I can email Group 1, Group 2, etc. When it changed to the new Yahoo format, I can't find or access those groups. So, I can't add, change, or delete any email addresses in the groups.

  4. Change the two columns & stop the scrolling that changes the message to above or below

    I hate the two columns. When I am reading a text & try scrolling down in the message to read the contents, the scrolling moves me to another text. It is very annoying.

    I didn't see the notice for the change & am not happy about the change.

  9. Allow user to select multple emails in 1 click

    Show a checkbox on top left to the the filtering tabs 'All', Primary', etc. This would allow users to select multiple emails without checking a single one first. At present, there is a hidden' checkbox that shows up only when user selects a single email first. This is unecessary hiding of a checkbox that results in multiple steps to perform bulk function that can be annoying.

  12. A working version

    My Yahoo does not work properly in Firefox. No folders, almost nothing the the log out box etc. Absolutely useless. Would be good to have my folders back.

  13. Elongated Email

    FIX YOUR ****
    I am trying to reply but for some reason the email has been extended horizontally and now the "reply" and "expand" button are all the way off to the right in the elongated center of the email, rather than in it's regular position.

    who the **** keeps changing **** and thinking it's a god idea. sir, because we know it's a man, cause a woman would never. Sir, you need your ideas clocked, as well as your face. (:

  15. Please allow us to hover on a contact and copy their email address to clipboard.

    I can't see my contacts email address when choosing it as a "To" address. I would like a way to see their full email address, and be able to copy it to clipboard.

  16. email deleting

    I have over 160,000 emails but I can only delete 100 at a time. That would take so much time to go through and delete all of those. Why isn't there a system in place to delete them all at once.

  17. Ads provider (Google?) is giving bottom of the barrel ads with nudity

    Yahoo, this is a really ****** ad. You should talk to your ad provider; they are giving you the bottom of the barrel. I'm happy to share a screenshot - the advertiser is **** Shoes, and one is an image with heels, the other is one of a woman's bare bottom. This doesn't match Yahoo's brand identity or audience.

  18. Sort emails

    Please bring back sort emails by SUBJECT. it's very frustrating when sorting through emails from the same email address looking for the specific updated subject and not being able to sort it alphabetically by subject. I have to spend more time sorting out my outdated emails
