  1. block specific ad

    Provide a way to block specific ads or types of ads in yahoo mail. For example, I am routinely receiving ads from the same dating websites, or cancer treatments and this is not something I need or want to see in my inbox. Pls give yahoo mail users a way to opt out, if I they are not interested.

  3. intrusive ads that do not offer a way to be deleted. There should be.

    What's with the ads that offer no way to delete them? Maybe I never noticed them before, but over the past week/ten days I've been barraged with them. I don't like it. If there isn't a way to correct this, there should be. If there is a way and I just don't know it, please direct me to it. I am looking around for an email service that doesn't allow ads to highjack it's customers (if one even exists). Thank you. Jim Phelan

  4. Ad Blocker Punishment? Really?

    You really think punishing me with a timed blockout of my inbox for using an ad blocker is going to encourage me to turn it off? With how many ads I got lambasted with before I installed it? Ads that flashed and destroyed the inbox and individual e-mail layouts? Absolutely not. You've just given me one more reason to ignore my inbox, lol.

  13. Too Much Ads/Spam getting through on Yahoo Mail.

    Way too much ads or spam getting through on Yahoo Mail....this didn't use to be a problem until about the last year when Yahoo Mail is not automatically blocking all the spam getting through in Yahoo Mail. You are getting $5 a month from me to get this cleaned up and blocked and you are failing at this effort miserably.

  19. The Ad free promise is a total misleading and false

    I tried Yahoo Plus for a month and got more junk mail and filth than I have ever had. It has been a complete frustration. I'm just worried that now than I am switching back I am still going to get tons of junk and filth emails. I am working to change as many of my login accounts to a different email so I can canel Yahoo.

  20. Send SPAM to the SPAM FOLDER!

    Why do you not send SPAM emails to the SPAM FOLDER?? The old system did that. I spend lots of time daily moving SPAM to the SPAM FOLDER so I can delete it.

    BRING BACK THE OLD GOOD WORKING SYSTEM!!
