  1. Allow users of the original Yahoo Mail to adjust font size and style

    For those of us who prefer the old Yahoo Mail layout, please restore the ability to change font size and style. The inbox shows the correct font, but when I go to compose, the font is very small.

  4. Add other email providers

    It would be great if New Yahoo Mail could receive my Comcast email and thus replace Outlook as my email account.

  6. Restore hiding/collapsing of message copies in reply drafts

    When you reply to an email, your message body will have a copy of said email with a heading like, "On Saturday, John wrote". The old interface collapsed this by default, giving a button for expanding it. This would be very nice to have back.

  8. Make all areas workable

    Not sure what is going on with Yahoo. This keep randomly changing and buttons keep disappearing. Not happy. Why can I not click a button to delete by week anymore. Getting frustrated with you service. Even this area sucks doesn't give right options to pick.

    Perhaps you just don't care?

  11. The experience replying to emails is horrible.

    When I am trying to reply to an email, the screen keeps shifting to where the currently edited line is at the very top of the window. When I copy-paste, there is another abrupt shift of the window, sometimes to the very bottom of the email. The email should probably never shift when it is being edited.

  12. copy email from string

    I used to be able to highlight an email in a group email and copy their email to send then a private message. That doesn't work anymore and is super frustrating.

  14. For the sake of security- Yahoo must stop hiding the senders email.

    Hello, For the sake of security- Yahoo must stop hiding the senders email address when viewing emails. Seeing the actual email address helps users like myself confirm if an email is a spoof address. The only way to see the actual senders address is for me to click 'reply' so that the senders address then shows like this- support@prime.com info@jobhotel.be. This email spoofed itself to be from Amazon Prime but the real address shows @jobhotel.be. So your current yahoo mail design is going to get a lot of people scammed I hope you realize.

  15. Improve SPAM filtering and blocking

    Hi, it would be great to increase the number of blocked addresses or blocked domains.
    Another new feature would be the ability to use wildcard character (asterisk) in the block addresses function. Certain spammers use the same 'to'/'from' name but dozens of domains. The ability to block say "Newsletter@(asterisk).com" would help immensely.

    It would be nice to be able to see a draft reply as we navigate through our emails, as can be done in Office Outlook.

  20. BUG: scroll bar does not go to end of long message

    The behavior of the scroll bar is different from the behavior of the two finger scroll gesture.

    When composing a message that is larger that the compose window, using the scrollbar to get to the end of the message does not work. But, using the scroll gesture to get to the end of the message does work. This seems like a bug and confused my older sister to no end...
