  1. Make All the default setting

    Having to click from priority to All to see all my inbox emails does not speed things up it slows it down. When I go top email I want all my inbox emails., I should not have to switch to All just because someone at yahoo thinks they know what is my priority.

  2. Missing "People" tab in groupings

    I am not liking the latest Priority tabs groupings on my app.

    While I know how to disable tab settings, what I want back is the "People" tab which was generally good about filtering emails from real people I know vs other emails.

    Very recently, in an effort for YAHOO to make my email easier to handle, by taking away that tab it is now NOT easier! Also, why can't YAHOO figure out a way to have these priority tabs on both the Android app and the regular desktop version?

    This long time user is very disappointed at how when…

  3. priority inbox

    Priority? Worst idea ever! I can already set up rules to view or sort or categorize emails. Why would I want Yahoo to prioritize them for me? According to whatever rules they set up? It would be so easy to completely miss an email if I was expecting it, but Yahoo decided to "un-prioritize" it! I will NEVER use the prioritize option. And I hope to God that Yahoo doesn't some day decide to make it mandatory. <sheesh!>

  5. YOUR PRIORITY IS NOT MY PRIORITY

    Your priority is not my priority. Should be an option to get rid of folders I will never use. I want it ALL, ALL THE TIME, AND I WANT IT NOW!!!

  6. GO BACK TO THE OLD FORMAT.

    WHEN I OPEN MY EMAIL I WANT TO SEE ALL MY EMAILS, NEW AND OLD. I WANT TO MAKE THE DECISION TO ARCHIVE, SAVE OR DELETE WITH ONE VIEW. HAVING TO CONTINUALLY LOOKING FOR EMAILS IS ANNOYING AND WASTES MY TIME. GO BACK TO THE OLD FORMAT. THIS IS NOT EASIER. IT'S STUPID AND TIME WASTED.

  7. I would like a way to set it so that Yahoo Mail always opened to "ALL" mail rather than to "priority" mail.

    I would like a way to set it so that Yahoo Mail always opened to "ALL" mail rather than to "priority" mail.

    I don't need Yahoo, or anyone else, to decide what is a priority for me.

    To be perfectly honest, I would be happy to see Yahoo get rid of the "priority" mail option.

  8. Missing Priority Inbox

    the Priority Inbox is gone. My emails are no longer sorted into Priority, Updates, Offers, Newsletters or All tabs. The Priority Tab toggle in Settings is gone. This is on both the Android app and the desktop browser application.

    Is this an update Charlie Foxtrot or is this a permanent change?
