  1. There is so much wrong with this, I don't know where to start!!!

    1. it seems the reason for your change was to use 1/3 of my screen for that ad on the right side!
    2. When I set up my choices way back when, they worked for me, and still would if you would let me be.
    3. You didn't give me an option...you hi-jacked my account and forced me into this new email garbage.
    4. The color choices and changed layout makes it very hard to read and file my emails.

  2. multiple attachments at once

    Previously I could attach multiple files by selecting them from their folder, new mail has me attaching them one at a time. very inefficient when I have a folder with an invoice and packing slip files side by side and can no longer box both at once for attachment. Same thing where I need to attach multiple photos, 1 at a time, very inefficient attaching process. Too many repetitive process extra clicks, do you not beta test this junk before just dumping it on us?

  4. Add an easy method to attach other Yahoo emails to an email

    Right now I've been looking for how to attach an email I've sent in the past to a new email I'm currently composing. It should be an up front and easy process but for the life of me I am not able to find it. My idea is to simply add under the attachment icon (the paper clip) the option to search and add a previous email from the inbox or a folder. Some attachments can be other than files.

  6. QUESTION

    Usually and normally, after I type for 1 or 2 alphabets of the receiver's email, it'll automatically recommend 1 or 2 emails, then I pick whoever I want. But, I cannot do that since months ago. I've scrolled through every settings, but nothing works. And it's kind of inconvenient for me. Please, help me solve this problem cause I desperately want to know why.

    The account is ptsumberanugrahgas@yahoo.com

    Thank you.

  9. creating email issues

    There's been issues when composing or replying to emails. While composing/replying to emails on the desktop, it would frequently pop-up new composing emails and/or to delete the composed email. It's been going on for probably at least 3 months.

  11. Attachments and Links In Messages

    Please restore the functionality wherein you could drop an image(s) at the bottom of an email and it would work as an attachment. Now it automatically makes it inline and you have to change every image you send manually. And please create a setting where the message does not automatically make every link a preview. It is incredibly inefficient and annoying to have to reset all of those (even ones you have already reset).

  12. emoji missing when composing in my mail

    Unfortunately, what you're looking for isn't possible in the current version of your Yahoo Mail. I can see how that'd be useful, though.

    You should post your suggestion to add that function on our feedback forum. Our product teams review the posts and look for ideas to include in future releases.

  13. Option to stop auto-suggesting additional addresses to send to

    Each time I try to forward mortgage documents or something to my wife, after I type in her email address it also suggests I send it to an artist I bought a t-shirt from a year ago, or to customer support for some software I use. It's only a matter of time before this causes me to accidentally send a bank statement to a random stranger, I should be able to turn this feature off.

  17. Please fix the way I can attach files to my outgoing emails .. go back to original format

    Why can I NOW unable to attach Cut and Paste (ctrl C & V) files or info into the body of my emails.. This is one of the MOST important features I NEED when using Yahoo MAIL.. This feature disappeared a week ago and is severely impacting my abilities to conduct business.. This has never been an issue and having to SAVE a file to my computer to only THEN use the new file attachment window of only being able to attach ONE FILE at a time is so totally inefficient NOW.. I can also no longer attache multiple files…

  19. New Yahoo email deleted many options I used.

    A lot of issues with this new version of Yahoo email. One of the biggest is the option to change the font size of my email messages that I send or print. The font size is so small on the emails I print I can hardly read them with out a magnifying glass. Also, I cannot bold anything, underline anything, color anything in my outgoing email messages.

  20. Unreliable email

    The "new experience" has been hellishly unreliable. I have been trying, for about 40 minutes, to send an extremely important time, sensitive email and cannot launch it, nor add important attachments. Previously the "new experience" often presented the same problems which is why I had switched to the original format. If I am stuck now with an unreliable email server I will need to switch to something else
