Up/Down Arrow, Scrolls Now - In full message view, not preview pane.
Sender's Email Address - You don't have to open the email to see the sender's email address. Just hover over the sender's name from your Inbox.

  1. Using the 'block sender' and adding to the format when selecting multiple entries to block in SPAM folder

    I've noticed at times that when you open the SPAM folder and wish to select multiple entries to be discarded by the 'block sender' icon, this icon is NOT always available. This is hypercritical as you would need to individually 'block sender' for each SPAM missive if the top box is checked and you can't 'block sender' for all. Thanks!!

  3. Blocking senders

    Well, I see Yahoo has succumbed to the lure of MO' MONEY. I used to be able to block senders I didn't want to receive email from.

    Now I have to pay $5 for that privilege. Thanks a lot for nothing.

  5. options to block spam

    I have had this email for decades. Lately I am getting more Spam than ever. I think there needs to be an option to block unlimited domains and have AI automatically block emails that have domains that don't really exist. Or just any weird emails that are not valid.

  7. WHY DID YOU DELETE ALL MY EMAILS

    it was pretty ****** of you guys to not send notice to my other email before deleting DECADES of emails just because I hadn't logged in for a year. Way to make sure I definitely won't use your service and advise everyone I know not to.

  8. too much spam

    SPAM COMPLAINT.
    Your new layout coincides with a huge increase in spam. Probably coincidental but can't you tune up your anti-spam software better?
    Add more domain-level blocking.

  9. Delete Trash.

    Up until about a week ago, there was the ability to select to delete all of the items in the Trash. That option is no longer available.
    Please bring it back.

  10. getting rid of spam

    It used to be, with spam, that you blocked sender and then the spam was permanently deleted. Now, when spam is blocked, it is then sent to the trash folder from where is now has to be deleted.
    change it back to the old way; this new way doubles the work of getting those spam emails out of your email

  12. Deleted messages

    I needed to search emails that have been deleted longer than 7 days ago. It annoying that you guys have decided to clear out the trash boxes for people when you dont know if something is needed from them. Not everything has to be starred to be saved, I needed to find a subject title and now I cant because its gone. You guys are making to many unnecessary changes.

    You keeping making changes to Yahoo. Please stop!!!j You're making it more difficult to use, less user friendly. Two days ago I was able to "select all" to delete and clear out all the Spam. Now I'm unable to. That function has disappeared.
