Make Trash and Spam Folders More Accessible

why make things harder to access? there's plenty of room in the left menu bar for those to be openly accessible.

    I don't appreciate having to go thru multi steps to see Trash and Spam.
    What on earth were you thinking, not user friendly!!!!

  • Chris Collins commented  ·   ·  Report

    Why is the Spam folder so hidden now? Put it back where it used to be.
    And bring back the Trash Can icon next to Spam, so it can be easily emptied, as before.

  • Desiree Shaw commented  ·   ·  Report

    I hate that I have to un-hide the spam folder since YOU KEEP MARKING EVERYTHING AS SPAM

  • Susanne Woods commented  ·   ·  Report

    Unread box location- Please allow Yahoo users to move the UNREAD mail tab back to where it was, near the Inbox tab. It's ridiculous to need to search for it!

    Why have you made it harder to get to the Spam and Trash folders by hiding them at the bottom? I want them back at the top where they were!

  • Shashi More commented  ·   ·  Report

    In the new Yahoo mail - the SPAM folder should be visible by default. In today's world so many emails go to SPAM folder and I do daily review if any important emails to be tagged as non-spam. Please put the SPAM as default folder visible like before.

    Please move the "Spam" folder and "Trash" folder up below "Draft" folder at top of column. I check those daily, and I do not want to have to go to the bottom of the column to open those folders. Also, how can I change icons over messages, i.e., forward, star, move, delete, etc. to words instead of icons? Is there any way to make the left folder column wider? I do appreciate that you indented the sub-folders more. It was very hard to see that in your previous version.

    You need to simplify the deleting process. First, it's too hard to find the Trash and Spam folders. They are both hidden under the "More" menu. When you are finally able to select those folders, it's not immediately clear how to delete all the e-mails in those folders. For the trash folder, there is a little garbage cann icon that you need to click in order to empty the folder. For spam, you need to open the folder, click the "Select all" check box, then select "delete" from the resulting menu. The old version of Yahoo mail allowed you to do all this with one click on each folder...

    I should not have to click around for the spam folder. It needs to be at the top along with the inbox like the previous version of Yahoo mail was laid out.

  • Patrick Davies commented  ·   ·  Report

    Spam folder is missing from the left pane in new Yahoo Mail. I cannot find a way to make it show up all the time. This means I have to click the three dots and click on Spam. I have switched back to the old mail, because I need the Spam folder to show up in the left pane.

  • Halim Habiby commented  ·   ·  Report

    The spam folder needs to be visible because it doesn't reliably catch spam - I have to check it frequently for legitimate email

  • Halim Habiby commented  ·   ·  Report

    The Trash folder needs to be visible not hidden away

  • IMNRTST ヅ commented  ·   ·  Report

    Hey...
    I miss the link to the spam folder being at the top left, with the other folder options.
    That is something I check daily... and now the new Yahoo Mail has made it harder to get to!!!
    I have to scroll down past all my folders... and it's a long folder list... to get to 3 dots... and in there... finally, the spam folder link... WTF?!

    Please fix this.

    Please move Spam and Trash folders back!

  • Antonio Pedro Alves commented  ·   ·  Report

    Two folders that were shown by default are missing on the left panel: spam and trash.

  • Jo Ann commented  ·   ·  Report

    Move folders; unread - trash, to under the inbox.

  • Kenneth M Quick commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please allow the pin of the trash/deleted for easier access. It is very annoying that this was removed. It really affects how I use Yahoo Mail

  • Eric Dreiman commented  ·   ·  Report

    Add the trashcan/delete icon back to the main email screen. I should have to click on each email before the delete option appears. Yahoo always complicates things when you change the email format/layout.

  • Doug Ackerman commented  ·   ·  Report

    Restore the Spam folder. Some of my desired emails go there. I like to check it regularly. Now it is gone.

  • Brian G Epstein commented  ·   ·  Report

    Why did you hide Spam and Trash? They should be near the top, where they used to be
