  1. Like to see Yahoo Improve Spam filtering

    Recently I have seen an uptick of Spam messages which are continuously changing their From and Subject signatures. Specifically, they are using "UTF-8?B?" signatures in the From and Subject which constantly changes so that Yahoo's present filtering is unable to catch. Without improved spam filtering, my time is being wasted deleting this garbage and I may need to move on from Yahoo mail. It would seem the paid version has something more powerful to eliminate this but this far that's not been the case.

  2. How about making what you already have work?? Your "so called" filters have stopped working. I believe it was intentional.

    How about something really simple like having filters that actually filter?? Yours suck. They never work. I'm thinking of changing everything over to gmail. If it weren't so time consuming I'd have done it long ago. Making it so your filters no longer work in your yahoo plus so that your customers will have to change to your new service was obviously thought up by a foreigner that is severely ignorant with regard to your customer base. If I'd wanted trickery, all I'd have to do is open some of the spam you've seen fit to let through your faulty…

  3. Go back to the old view

    The new view is a classic case of changing something for the sake of change. The worst part, it is never a real good idea follow either M$ or Google ideas. They are getting raped for their changes too.

  5. Can't see the email address of the person who sent the email.

    I can't see the email address of the person who sent an email. This makes it difficult to identify spam that may have gotten past the spam filter.

  9. Message Layout

    Suggestion: Please could you consider giving users another option on the "Message Layout" section to remove the "third tile" (where the contacts/starred messages) can be viewed. The message tile is shrunk and requires one to scroll to the right to read the full message (even on a laptop). Or you might want to give the user the option to shrink that third tile. Thank you!

  10. Message Layout

    Suggestion: Please could you consider adding another layout option without the "third tile" (where the contacts, starred messages and calendar can be viewed) on the right side of the email list tile and full message tile. It takes up too much space (even on laptop) and restricts the size of message tile unless one scrolls to the right. Or you could consider giving the user the option to reduce the size of that third tile. Thank you!

  11. MAKE IT WORK!

    Your new email system sucks. It constantly takes me away from the emails I am writing and it just caused me to delete an email I was working on for awhile.

  12. Format issue when using chrome

    I have my "Windows" scale setting at 150% to make it easier to read any website info. And I'm using a chrome browser. When replying to an email, I have to adjust chrome zoom setting to 80% to see the "Send" button. Also, can't see "Mailboxes" button on main screen until I set zoom to 80%. Very annoying. Need to have it reformat screen to show those items or have a full screen scroll bar so you can scroll down to see these items.

  13. Website update

    if you accidentally delete a message there is no way to move it back to the inbox. Every time a webpage is updated, something else breaks. I liked the way it was. (angry face)

  16. Search

    Hi,

    First of all, I do not like the design of the new mail, old one was more clear for viewing and navigating, in my opinion it's a step backward. Before was possible to select in which folder you want the search to be performed, that's not possible any more. It was very handy feature.

    Rgds,
    Damir

  17. ads

    I changed all my ad settings to try and get rid of them. They interfere with my typing emails (stop putting the letters I had typed, so the ad could display). This happens many times per day. A business email should not be interfered by ads!!!
    Now after changing the settings I get Adult ads! Chat with me females in the ad!! What kind of business account would allow this! Please fix.

  18. 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!

  19. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

    I've been using Yahoo for over 20 years and you have majorly screwed it up! The reason I liked it is because it was basic with no frills. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

  20. AWFUL UPDATE

    This is the WORST update I've ever seen. The Inbox won't even load into my computer - and I have Xfinity Broadband at the highest available speed. You completely ruined Yahoo Mail - ridiculous.
