  4. Free storage to be remained as 1TB

    I just saw a notification yesterday stating that I have exceeded my mailbox storage. Truthfully, I am very proud to tell my friends that I started using my Yahoo Mail since 2002, exactly more than 23 years ago. I don't have to create another new email as my email is never full. Upon searching the web, Yahoo offered a whooping 1TB mail storage. Happy me continued spreading the words to my friends about the exciting discovery. I was hearbroken, devastated & even cried yesterday. Why are you reducing the mail storage to 20GB? You have deleted some of the other…

  7. Bulk Deleting Emails

    I placed 45,000 emails into the Trash folder and then tried to clear/delete that bin. The software just keeps "thinking" with the circular arrows graphic. I can delete in bunches of 1000, but am afraid to go further. None of this would be necessary if there wasn't an email cap placed on my account. Don't get me wrong, I understand the cap, but there should be WORKABLE solutions to clear numerous emails. Sadly, this might force me elsewhere. I have been a Yahoo email user for 20 years! That's a lot of email to clear!

  8. Mail selection is completely broken

    With the new infinite scroll and separated views, the ability to select mail is broken. When a new scroll occurs sometimes checks are added or when bulk selected, emails that were not selected will still end up being selected and end up being moved to trash. This happens to me every day

  9. Bulk Delete does not work, How do i show email size

    Hi,

    The Bulk Delete feature does not work -- it never deletes all the emails even after confirming.
    Secondly how can I show the email "size" in the summary pane along with subject, date and sender?

    Yahoo seems to have suddenly enabled mailbox size restrictions from previously saying unlimited and it doesn't look like you are enabling customers to clean their mailbox. Which is not correct.

  14. I need to see the amount of storage used by each mail folder

    In order to free up storage space in my yahoo mail account, I need to know which folders are using up the most storage. But I only get a total storage size today. I need to see the storage for each folder.

    I would also like to see the largest attachments in my yahoo mail account. So I can delete those. There is NO WAY to find those biggest attachments right now.

  15. DARK MODE WHILE COMPOSING IS HORRIBLE!

    I wanted to share some feedback regarding an issue I’ve encountered while using Yahoo Mail in dark mode.

    When I compose an email with dark mode enabled, the editor displays white text on a dark background, which looks fine while drafting. However, I recently noticed that when the email is sent, the text remains white. As a result, recipients with the default white background cannot see the text unless they highlight it.

    This issue makes it extremely difficult to ensure that my messages are readable for recipients. I would like to suggest that when composing emails in dark mode, the…

  17. translation

    Please program a language translation feature for translating emails received in other languages. For example --- If I make a reservation for a hotel in Mexico and receive a message in Spanish, I would like to be able to have the program translate the message to English. At present, I have to forward the message to a Google account to make that possible.

  18. MOVE option not working

    I receive messages from EBAY concerning automatic searches I have set up with them Most of these correctly go to the OFFERS folder but some go to PRIORITY. I select the message in PRIORITY and clicked on MOVE, select MORE OPTIONS. change the pull-down menu to OFFERS and click the MOVE button. The message disappears from PRIORITY. When I click to OFFERS folder, that message from EBAY is not there. I checked the other folder and it is not in either of them. If I go back to the PRIORITY folder, the EBAY message is there.

  19. Scheduled emails

    I would like to report an issue I’ve encountered on two separate occasions. I scheduled an email to be sent at a future date, but later decided to send it earlier. I used the “Send now” option, expecting this would cancel the previously scheduled delivery.

    However, in both cases, the recipient informed me that they still received the email again on the originally scheduled date, resulting in a duplicate.

    Could you please look into this and let me know if there is a way to prevent a scheduled email from being sent after using “Send now”?

    Thank you for your…

    There is no way to Permanently Clear your Yahoo Mail Search History, You can delete a mail history item but it will reappear when you next sign-on to Yahoo even if you clear all cookies in all Browsers.
