  1. deleting emails

    There is no option to mass delete emails in just a few clicks on the new yahoo mail app.

    Please restore the option where you can select the boxes "today", "yesterday', and "earlier this week"

    That was the easiest way to delete mass emails.

    We're glad you're here

  2. Add the select all back to delete ALL of your messages at once

    From any device I should be able to select WITH ONE BUTTON all of my emails to delete. This is literally the ONLY reason I use you email service. Add it back, please?

  3. tell me how to delete sexually oriented spam

  5. Delete all emails

    I am unable to delete all my emails in my inbox. The system will allow you to click on all emails, yet will only delete 100, which is not helpful. The system will only allow more to be deleted if you actively review all of them, which is not helpful. What are my options to fully delete my inbox?

  14. Bulk Delete Not Working

    Bulk Delete - Click on a checkbox from your Inbox and a new checkbox will appear at the top. From there you can Select All and Delete All.

    It's not working! It used to. Please bring it back. It's so annoying to have to delete each item separately. This is on a laptop.

  17. Turn off next email opening automatically

    When I delete an email, the next one is opened automatically. Please turn this feature OFF. I want to open each one manually when I have time.

  18. New to Yahoo Mail and find it nothing but wanting money

    How do I go back to Xfinity mail? This is too confusing for me. Ads I've never had and I refuse to pay to get rid of them! Absolutely ridiculous!

  19. Select all

    If you want us to be able to clean out our inboxes more easily, but a select all back on the screen, so I can empty the entire box without clicking on each message.

  20. No auto delete for trash

    Can we have the option to toggle off the auto delete feature of the trash. Sometimes I forget to save an important email and now it just auto deleted all of it and I have no way of going back. Or if you have to keep then make it it auto deletes anything older than 6 months. I have to get some from Jan that I didnt save so I have to get the one I missed anyways from them that was closer. Thank so much
