  3. SPAM

    There is a major problem with Spam emails. No matter how many filters I set, senders block, send to spam, etc., there are emails that are making it to my inbox. The addresses are complexly long-charactered and the spam/junk filters just aren't doing what they are supposed to. This does not happen on any other email client.

  4. Why did you make the option to block spam emails disappear

    Why did you make the option to tick all and easily block all the email senders in spam go away. You made it disappear and now the three lines only let you star and unstar it's so annoying. The new email has all kinds of features that appear and disappear at random and you can no longer use them. Please bring the permanant blocking for spam back. Please allow us to use control plus and make the mail big enough and stop telling us to go to basic if we want to do that. You didn't use to do that…

  5. What to do if I want to increase the storage by yearly basis or so

    Hello,
    I am suggested by Yahoo to increase my storage, however, it needs to pay every month which is complicated for me. I want to pay for a quite long time at a time. What Can I do for it?

    Waiting for your reply in this regard,

  11. PROBLEM WITH UPGRADING TO HAVE MORE STORAGE, NOT LIVING IN THE USA, BUT IN SWITZERLAND, AND THUS OPERATION NOT A CCEPTED

    Good morning,
    My account is "luisperezbayas@yahoo.com"and I am located in SWITZERLAND.

    I am informed that MY MAILBOX STORAGE IS FULL.

    But when I want to upgrade BY ADDING STORAGE, I fill every slot with the right information (Name, Address)

    BUT I CANNOT GO OUT OF THE US; IT DOESN'T LET ME ACCESS FOREIGN COUNTRIES,
    BUT ONLY THE STATES OF USA, AND OF COURSE MY ZIP CODE IS WRONG AND THE WHOLE OPERATION IS NOT ACCEPTED;
    IN ADDITION I AM WARNED THAT MY YAHOO ACCOUNT WILL BE CUT AND NON FUNCTIONAL IN 7 DAYS.

    THIS EMAIL IS ALSO MY…

  12. Priority is flawed!

    I missed three important emails today because I didn't realize Priority was selected instead of all. Not sure how to change emails so the ones that I want are priority.

    I prefer the old Yahoo mail.

  13. I didn't ask for a Priority Inbox

    I didn't ask for a "priority inbox". You don't know me and you don't know what my ******* priorities are. So ******** and let me see all of my emails, including the ones you hid from me that I really needed to answer but didn't even see existing.

  15. storage

    I have been trying to work on the storage of my emails for the last three weeks but every time I go to delete my archived emails the system says it has deleted all messages but I go back and it still has over 750,000 emails. How can I delete the emails to leave space for my storage? I am trying to delete so not to pay for the service. Many services are tied to this account.

  18. my mailbox

    Why and how you deleted ALL my mail from my inbox since April 2nd 2025 to 18th of August 2025,and the most of other years, without any asking?!!!
    It was important mail for me there.
    I have thought better about you.
    Or it is special treat just for me?
    Or it is "ohh we cut it without asking" treat ?

  19. When visiting the home page layout. Priority Vs. ALL (Mailbox layout)

    When I first open up my Yahoo Mail, I don't want to see the Priority Inbox category.
    I want to see ALL my emails when I first log in. I don't want to have to click on ALL category each and every single time.

    Please correct. Thank you.

  20. Categories for emails

    I'm not liking that my emails are marked Priority. Also not caring for the fact that All button. I've missed it a few times after logging in and missed emails I was was waiting on or looking for. Pretty unnecessary to group them like that.
