  1. Replying to a message requires Send button to be pressed twice

    When replying to a message, the Reply button needs to be pressed twice for the message to be sent. The first press on the button returns the message textbox to the top of the message. The second press sends the message. This is on a latest Firefox, macos.

  3. Please enable free mail forwarding

    Please enable free mail forwarding like we used to have.

    I'm not going to pay to send Yahoo mails to another email provider. You can keep all of my old data and harvest that for money. 25 years of emails should be worth something.

  5. Problem

    We have a problem with yahoo mail. When we go to "reply" e-mail is sent before we finish. The same happens when we attach document. We keep sending to people half-finished e-mails. Yesterday receiver did not even receive our e-mails. Please ADVISE!
