  1. The "Drafts" icon no longer shows the number of active drafts

    In the old version I was able to see how many drafts were currently in the Drafts folder.

    This is no longer possible for some reason

    Please fix.

  2. can't scroll through folders anymore when dragging message to folder

    It used to be that, when dragging a message to a folder, if there were more folders than could be viewed, you could just drag the message "beyond the bottom" and the folders would scroll up... This no longer works (on new or old yahoomail). instead, I just get a red circle with a slash.

  3. Recent folder list in move button

    It would be great to have the list of the 5 most recent folders on top when you press the move button to move an email to a different folder. Every time you need to do it, you need to locate the folder again and again. Thanks!
