Stop the popups
The popups are annoying, as if I was not aware of what I am doing.
BTW, the list of categories in the feedback is not necessary or even complete. So you're saying your AI is not capable of sorting the feedback?74th ranked -
fix the folders
Yahoo have given my mail a new look, and I can now no longer D+ to move an email to a folder in my sidebar? ie, I'd pressed D then a number, and that email would be moved to a corresponding folder. This was a huge timesaver for me, PLEASE PLEASE restore it.

Restore individual and bulk sender blocking in the new Yahoo Mail
Dear Yahoo Mail Team,
I am writing to complain about the disappearance of the “Block senders” option from the message toolbar in the new Yahoo Mail interface.
Previously, I could open a message and block its sender, or select multiple unwanted messages and block their senders in one operation. In my current interface, the three-dot menu for selected messages offers only “Mark as read,” “Star,” and “Unstar.” Blocking is no longer available there.
This is a significant loss of functionality. Deleting unwanted messages only removes those already received; it does not block their senders. Manually copying individual addresses into Settings…

Restore read/unread toggle functionality to the left-side bullet icon
In the old version, clicking the bullet icon located to the left of incoming emails (in the list view) would instantly toggle their status between read and unread. In the new interface, this bullet is completely non-functional.
Moving this shortcut to the far right of the screen forces unnecessary mouse movement across the entire page, which ruins the workflow and is not user-friendly.
Please restore the toggle read/unread functionality to the bullet icon on the left side of the email entries, exactly as it was.74th ranked -
Stop moving buttons
As I go through my emails and ultimately deleting many, the buttons along the top of the preview pane keeps changing locations due to some having the "Reply All" button and some not having it. Please keep buttons in consistent locations.

Photos - Yahoo going backwards when it should be going forward
Why did you mess up the ability to see all your photos in your inbox it was one of the best features I do not understand why this was pruned. PLease take another look at it and reinstate or let me go back to the old version. Why make it harder to look at all your photos now from your emails it was so quick and easy
I wonder if this will even make a human? It is just common sense74th ranked -
Options for larger text and adjusting contrast
Hello! I don't mind the redesign for the most part. The two things I wish I had more control over were the default text size, especially when viewing my inbox, and how much contrast there is between the text and the background. The old customized backgrounds let me pick a background that made the text easier on my eyes. Both the light and dark mode options available are very harsh, especially for someone with a visual disability like me.
I'd really like the option to adjust my text contrast and make the text in the inbox/navigation bars a little bit…

Reduce headers and non-message space wasters
I can rarely see a full image in email messages in the "improved" version of Yahoo mail. Why is there so much wasted space in the bizarrely wide borders around message content panels? Too much scrolling to accommodate this lazy and inconsiderate design choice.
Do better, Yahoo.

Bring back the option to limit number of messages on a page.
When I wanted to get my e-mail count down, I relied on the feature to include a limited number of messages on a page so I could Select All, then Delete. (This was extremely helpful for marketing e-mails that came from the same sender.) Continuous scroll eliminates this option. I understand that change is inevitable, but giving users the option to limit number of messages on a page would be fantastic. Thanks!

Broken " Sign Out " menu
The "Sign Out" button use to be displayed on screen.
Now its hidden under a profile drop menu.
The profile drop menu disappears if you hover away too fast, from the circle profile icon.
The mouse must rest on the circle icon, long enough for the drop menu to be displayed.
Anyone in a hurry to sign out will never see the drop menu appear,The average person:
clicks on the profile icon,
Then immediately positions the cursor in proximity of the "Sign Out" option.Hovering away from the profile icon cancels the display of the drop menu,

Maybe fewer graphics. This page often does not load for several tries.
I don't know what is slowing it down, but there are a lot more graphics on the lists now.

Show a simple inbox - get rid of the childish features
Go back to classic. We just want to check our email, not engage in social media silly features. At work I get over 50 emails every day, so coming to see that "level 60/100 wow" seems childish. Most of the people using Yahoo are Gen X, maybe millennials, so please don't treat us like Gen Alpha. Thank you.

Attachment view
This isn't an "idea", it's a complaint. I can't access an attachment. I used to hover & click preview. I tried clicking both preview and download and neither appeared. I checked my "download" folder and it's not there either. How do I view an attachment!!??

The email address, subject and date.
The menu items on the far right are not sized properly. The items displayed are only four, taking up space that could be used to set the size of the addressee, subject, and date to display more info. to the email user.
Why isn't the rectangle set "Horizontally"? Duh, and why can't users set the size, and orientation of the rectangles in this new 'feature' display?
Plus, the choice of display schema is very distracting from the previous view!74th ranked -
Why can't I open emails in another window???
new 'cutesy' garbage has taken away option to open multiple emails in different tabs or windows. What if I want to compare emails from different senders and different times? I WAS trying to open tabs for multiple auctions I won for similar items. Of course, this new mess removes that option, makes actually reading an email harder, and navigation a complete mess. STOP trying to be 'cutesy' and return this mess to something slightly usable. This is awful.

Allow me to expand the folders list so it is always viewable
This is not a new request. Put back the ability to view all of the folders and their unread counts. Out of sight out of mind. I need to see my folders. Put that back or add it to settings so I can set it.

Where is my count of unread messages next to the folder?
This is not a new idea. Put the count of unread messages back next to the folder.

Opening emails doesn't mark them as read.
I have a great idea, how about when I read an email, it marks it as read? At the moment, I have to click the dot next to it to mark it as read, which is ironic, since actually reading it doesn't make it count as read.
I can't believe I need to suggest this. This was possible 20+ years ago when I first made the account. Let us choose to go back to the working mailbox.

The new layout is unusable
The new mail box view and the design is pretty much unusable in my 13inch macbook pro. I dont know what you folks are doing. its very frustrating. I had a compact view and readable area on the side pane to view email content. currently, I have a large white space and 3 panels with one (ads) and I can't upgrade anyways for some reason.
can someone fix it? My yahoo email is primary for me and its frustrating to see such visual and design changes that do not work for users

The unread email numbers aren't immediately updating in the other mailboxes when you hover to look at them.
The New Emails counters aren't updated after reading what is inside them immediately, like they used to. It keeps showing I have unread emails when I already read them.
Did you have literally anyone test these basic systems before forcing a rollout? This was literally possible 20 years ago (and last week). Why do you keep trying to break what isn't broken?
