  1. Easy viewing of messages with attachments

    When a conversation is expanded, giving 1-line previews, it would be useful to see which messages carry attachments

  2. Can 'select all' be made visible all the time?

    Hello, I saw in a couple posts that the 'select all' box becomes available once an email has been selected. Personally, I'd prefer it if the 'select all' box was always visible. It's honestly kind of annoying that I have to select an individual email in order to make the 'select all' box visible. Also, I recently realized this, but when I'm in a filter/folder other than 'all' I instinctively think the 'all' is the 'select all'.

  4. Pleaseeeeee go back to the old version. Thank you

    It's hard to handle and look for the new "look" of Yahoo main page. Why in the world would change the appearance of the Yahoo?. The old version is very easy to handle and understand. If there are not a button of get back to Yahoo old version, I'm going to look to close the account and open a new one in Google.

  7. Why can I no longer paste a screenshot in the body of an email --- bad for my business

    Why can I no longer paste a screenshot in the body of an email --- bad for my business.
    I often need to screenshot a portion of a document or a screenshot -- no longer have that capability in the new version.
    Please give back functionality we had in the Classic Version.
    Your attempt to streamline and give better functionality is obviously a FAILURE !

  8. We can no longer widen the column with the folders making it impossilbe to see the entire title of the folder

    We can no longer widen the column with the folders making it impossilbe to see the entire label of the folder if it has a longer label. Also, when changing the name of a folder, if you only want to add to the existing label you have to retype the whole thing. Very time consuming. In addition, when you are trying to move a folder you can no longer search by typing part of the name but have to scroll - if you have a ton of folders that is very time consuming.

    Please bring back the ability to widen…

  10. Ad Blockers

    I keep getting an access denied screen when trying to use Yahoo Mail, saying that I'm using an Ad Blocker. No, I won't be disabling my ad blocker. Do I need to switch to a different email service?

  13. Way too much spam not filtered - its so easy to do

    You guys havent figured out how to root out simple spam - cant believe you guys dont have the expertise like Google and others. So many goes into our inbox and simple domain check shows all nonsense domains adveritsing as Comcast, Netflix, paypal, costco etc. Very simple to block it and you should reach out to yahoo mail users for easy fixes. I am sure there are so many folks who can help you make yahoo mail one of the best.

  15. Deleting mass emails

    I have been trying to delete my emails for DAYS!! There needs to be a quick way to get rid of all the posts at once. Yes, I waited too long to do this, but I cannot access my email right now. Having to spend 10 hours a day deleting, and then having to go to the Trash and delete again is a major pain, especially for those of us with limited hand use, due to disease.

  16. no select all box

    regarding the new mail foermat......

    There is no easily identifiable select all box. We receive 100 spams for every valid email. I use select all and then uncheck the few valid emails that I need to read. It is a HUGE task to ask us to select every mail individually to delete from the innbox. PLEASE put that function back! .

  17. unread mail doesn't show up on primary list

    Yahoo tab at the top of my browser shows I have new mail. When I click on the mail tab, primary mail is listed (as default) but there is no unread mail shown. If I click on the "all" tab I can see unread mail here along with everything in my "primary" listing. Why doesn't unread mail just show up on my primary list like it used to? Alternately, if I could make the "all" list the default setting I would immediately see the unread mail. Why is it when programmers "improve" a program they seem to break more stuff?

  18. DATED EMAIL SYSTEM

    I am NEVER using Yahoo mail again. I recently stopped receiving emails and am being told I need to pay to add storage. This is asburd. I am trying to mass delete emails prior to a certain date, and I cannot mass delete. No matter how many times it tells me my emails are deleted - they are not. I can only delete 50 at a time. No wonder this is a dying company. This is completely unacceptable
