  2. Block senders

    In the new version of Yahoo! I don't see an option for selecting and blocking senders. If this is available, please make it more visible. Until then I'll be staying with the Standard version.

  4. delete

    I have long wished for a way to mass-delete email. For example, I would be able to delete everything older than a certain date, say Delete all messages dated prior to 01/01/2015.

  7. group deletion

    Why did you get rid of the ability to sort by date and then do mass deletions at once? going through each one is time consuming and an inconvenience?

  10. Delete All

    Why did you take away the option to select all in our spam and trash folders AND remove the trash button next to each folder to easily delete? I'm just going to keep all my trash now because it's such a hassle to delete!

  14. deleting large groups of emails from a single sender

    Please make it possible to select all messages from a single sender, so that when, for instance, I no longer want to keep for posterity 2000 emails from Replacements Ltd I don't have to click page by page.

  15. The new interface is terrible. My draft emails keep getting deleted and are not recoverable.

    There have now been two separate occasions where I have drafted a long and thoughtful email, only to have the draft deleted but some series of unknown keystrokes! The worst part is that the deleted message doesn't even end up in the trash so I can recover it! This is completely unacceptable. I went back to the "classic" version the last time this happened, but now I am being forced to use the new version of the interface. This needs to be fixed ASAP!

  16. deleting several emails at once

    I don't want to delete all of my emails, or a set category. I do want to be able to select several emails at once to delete. I don't see a very efficient way of doing this in the new version.

  17. Deleting in box

    BRING BACK the old version to delete, Yahoo states I have over 5,000 of unread from inbox, I do not the new version, I do not like the new version, I do not want to pay to get rid of my 5,000 message. Show how? Ignoring this issue is annoying. Want to delete all my unwanted message, fix the problem, Yahoo.

  18. deleting open messages

    With a message opened, I don't see a way to delete it other than closing the message and deleting it from the list of messages. Very cumbersome.

    Am I missing something?
