Search in specific folder
I used emails in a specific folder not the whole mailbox. It'll be nice to have that feature again. Thank you

The search in the new Yahoo mail doesn't have the ability to search specific folders. I frequently want to search only messages in the inbox but I don't see a way to do that. The results include messages from all other folders, making search less useful. The old Yahoo Mail has an Advanced search where you can select the folder to search in. This is missing from the new Yahoo Mail. Until this is fixed, I prefer to use the old Yahoo Mail. Thanks for listening.

Another issue is with the old yahoo mail I could do a search of my inbox only. With the new yahoo mail when I go to inbox and then go to the search box in upper left, it searches ALL emails in ALL of the folders, not just my inbox.

Search Yahoo mail by folder is missing, removed, that is terrible

I'd like to have an option to search the inbox only, which was possible with the classic interface.

Not having the ability to search specific folders makes it even more challenging to clean out my mailbox. With the old Yahoo Mail, we could search by sender and filter by folder. Emails that are important to me are filed in a labeled folder. If I want to do a mass clean up of my inbox, I can no longer exclude those important emails from being rendered in the search results for quick deletion and I do not have time to go through each email one-by-one to redetermine which are important prior to deletion and shouldn't have to as I have already deemed them important by filing them in a separate folder.

MOST IMPORTANT feature you took out when you created 'new' email - To be able to search by folder.
What is 'archived' . Where is that folder and how do I search so I can delete them?
Don't want you or you AI to 'guess' what I consider priority Others may want it, personnally, my experiance with AI is that it isn't there yet.. If it was, I would not keep getting things put into spam that do not belong there.
I do not see anything in your list of 'new features' that I want.
I can already see number of messages

When I do an advanced search, the original functionality where I could limit the search to a specific folder or all mail is extremely useful; should retain all the original advanced search options. Also it is very useful to be use the Spam button to tag selected emails as junk in one click.
You should include the functionality to download emails to local storage for offline access. This will allow the user to delete locally archived emails from the yahoo email server and free up online storage. -

I used to be able to search by folder, i.e. just the inbox, or one that I created for all my cat stuff. Now that option has disappeared it makes it harder when I have to bulk move emails and I can't only search my inbox.

In the new Yahoo Mail, the 'search within folder' option is not available. So when I search, the results are displayed from all the folders. In case, I like to delete or move only from a specific folder, it is very difficult. This option was available in the Old Yahoo Mail.

Your last update removed the ability to limit a search to one specific folder (e.g. "Inbox") or across all folders. Please restore this ability--I consider it a must have for joyful usage of your mail service.
