  1. Make it less busy.

    Too many dark lines all over the inbox. It's hard to focus. Maybe a lighter color except for when the cursor goes over it?

  2. Update subject changes in conversation view

    In conversation view, it does not show when the subject line is changed in the conversation. This is important information to show! Maybe the most important!

  5. The subject of the email should not be replaced by yahoo

    Currently with the new Yahoo the subject of the email is getting replaced in the inbox view. The actual subject can be sent when I click on the email. The subject should not be changed just like it was in the old Yahoo.

  8. Adjust spam folder rules to allow for calander invites not to be sent directly into the spam folder

    I have recently noticed how every calendar invite I'm being sent by people I've been in conversation with have been automatically placed in the spam folder with no indication something was moved into the spam folder. I have almost missed multiple important meetings, so I ask for the ability to change the way calendar invites are treated in the spam sorting algorithm or at least the ability to recognize people I've been emailing for a few days as trusted senders.

  11. Make experiences identical on web and app

    Make the experience of moving a message identical between the web version and the phone app. Right now they work differently. On the phone, "other" should be replaced with the actual tab names: "Social" and "Newsletters"

  12. Folders

    I'd love it if like gmail, there could be some folders at the top of your inbox like 'Promotions' or 'Updates' so emails could be categorised into personal and marketing sort of categories. Also a more advanced settings page would be ideal.

  13. Can you upgrade your email filter?

    Let say I received an email from some company and I want to set automatic transfer all its email to a folder.
    I have to
    1. copy his email address;
    2. click more on the left panel;
    3. select setting;
    4, go to filter;
    5. create a new file name and enter all setting by myself.

    Total 5 steps. Can I like right click the email address or the email > add to filter then pop up some setting for me to edit? this like just 2 steps and done.

    Also the filter list is sick. I can see I…

  16. Show all emails by default in inbox

    Please allow a customer to choose whether they want to default to all emails or one of the other options. Default setting should be to all emails. Also, there is an issue with the inbox as new emails that should be showing in the inbox are having to be searched to find.

  18. Error issue loading email

    This is not an idea to improve but more on a report on issue I still encounter for couple of months now. Whenever I open a specific email from "Shopee" with content of advising that my parcel has been delivered, it always display "Yahoo Mail has encountered a problem. Learn more" So I can't view the content of the said email.

    Hoping that you could fix this issue.

    Thank you

  19. Need help receiving from a specific domain

    Hello. At some point I stopped receiving emails from a specific website/community/domain. feabie.com I have added their email address info@feabie.com and filtered their domain to attempt to White List so I can receive their emails. I had to do a password reset on their site but could not receive emails to fix the logon issue. It was eventually fixed through their support but I still can not receive emails from them. Can you please look into this and fix it? I believe Yahoo Mail is filtering it out before it comes to my inbox. Thanks!
