  1. Add a button

    I would like to see a button added that would lock in an email on my email home page so that I could keep it with my recent emails in plain sight and avoid deleting it by mistake. This is different than putting that email in a specific folder. Sometimes, I would just to see an important email in plain sight every time I open up my email page.

  4. Batch/ folder download

    Hi, I would like to be able to download multiple emails from my inbox to my PC for processing, but I seem to have no way of doing this. I have a large batch of around 80 emails I want to download, and doing them one by one in this day and age seems a bit silly.
    It would be great if there was a "zip and download" multiple emails option.

  5. Quicker Delete Option

    When a user selects the checkbox on an email in the inbox and deletes it, the next email gets highlighted automatically, but the Delete option disappears.

    It would be much more convenient if the Delete button remained visible at all times, allowing users to quickly continue deleting emails without having to select the checkbox again each time.

  7. Make it less busy.

    Too many dark lines all over the inbox. It's hard to focus. Maybe a lighter color except for when the cursor goes over it?

  8. Give us filtering directly from email back

    Give us back the option to build a filter directly from emails again. It is a massive pain ********** to build each filter from scratch. This is making me want to migrate all of my email addresses to other servers.

  9. Go **** yourselves

    The new mailbox is a stinking festering pile of dog ****. Totally worthless. You provide no option to return to the far better older version.
    Worthless mindless nerds who only want to maximize profit for Yahoo at the expense of the consumer.

  12. About the New Yahoo!

    This New Yahoo Mail! is Awful! And it lacks A LOT of the good things that were available in the Classic Yahoo! Now you can´t open a sent message on a new window, you can´t compose messages like before, you removed the option to use Yahoo! Classic and you removed MANY other things that make this Yahoo! experience HORRIBLE!!! I hope you fix it and bring the options that were available in Yahoo! Classic.

  13. Complaint About Excessive Ads in Cox/Yahoo Email Service

    Hello,

    I would like to express my dissatisfaction with the current advertising experience in the Cox.net email service now managed by Yahoo.

    The amount of ads displayed throughout the email interface has become extremely frustrating and distracting. It negatively affects the usability of the service and makes the experience feel cluttered and unpleasant.

    What is especially disappointing is that other major email providers such as Gmail and Outlook offer much cleaner, less intrusive experiences. Users should not feel overwhelmed by advertisements simply to access their email accounts.

    My Cox.net email address is still active, but due to the excessive advertising,…

  14. improve mail writing formatting options

    The limited formatting options here, are leaving my messages looking completely unprofessional. Like someone who doesn't know how to use a computer. Even copy pasting doesn't work as expected.

    And what is it with not being able to resize pasted images?

  15. Update subject changes in conversation view

    In conversation view, it does not show when the subject line is changed in the conversation. This is important information to show! Maybe the most important!

  16. Make less vertical space between messages in inbox list

    The classic mail showed approx 30% more messages in one screen of the list. The new mail is wasteful of space.

  18. keep the right hand pane closed or make a setting to hide it

    it wastes space. When I click the right arrows to minimize it, it reappears next time I login.
    It would be nice to not have it.

  19. Get rid of Primary and let me decide what is important

    Please let my email open to "all" and not "primary". Let me decide what is important. At least give that as an option.
