Number of Total Messages - Hover over the Inbox Icon and you will see both total number of messages and unread.

  1. Fraud coming from Yahoo

    Find who ever is sending me email into my spam folder from Yahoo telling me the have to put a freeze on my account because I have not paid for my cloud storage.

  4. Wholesale deletion of emails

    I have no storage space. I currently have 364K emails that need deleting, but I see I'm only able to delete a 1000 at a time. I would have to scroll and check off 1000 emails, 364 times! Is there a way to delete all my inbox emails to once again free up storage space?

  8. Deleting mass email

    Hello,

    I have googled this with no real help. How do I delete mass email quickly without losing a certain amount? I'm trying to delete from 2024 back without losing 2025 emails in a certain folder. I don't want to check box each email in 2024 or 2025 (by reverse, delete tab upper left). Also, once again Yahoo has changed the yahoomail page and made it horrible, harder to easily know what is what with different shades to distinguish read, unread. I just now found I could go into settings and change back to old page, thank Buddha. Why make…

  9. Search function is useless

    Whenever I try to search for an email message I know I have, the search bar never finds it. But then when I scroll and scroll and scroll, I finally find it myself. My search used the same subject line, or I would search by the sender, and nothing. Completely useless and frustrating when you need to find something quickly.

  13. envelope icon for read messages

    Hello,

    I wanted to share a suggestion to help improve clarity in your email interface. Currently, when an email is marked as read, the envelope icon remains closed, which is confusing, traditionally, a closed envelope indicates an unread message. It would be more intuitive if the envelope appeared open once the message has been read.

    Right now, the only indication that a message has been read is the greyed-out text, but the closed envelope icon suggests otherwise. Updating the icon to an open envelope for read messages would make the status much clearer at a glance.

    Thank you for considering…

  14. I Want to See a Numerical Number of Unread Messages Immediately When I Open my Inbox, Not Hover Over the Inbox Icon

    I want to be able to see the number of unread messages when I open my inbox. I should not have to hover over the inbox icon to see them. My newer Yahoo Mail account has this feature, My older Yahoo Mail account does not. Please make the number of unread messages instantly available when the inbox is opened for all new Yahoo Mail accounts! Thank you!

  18. Keep the old Yahoo inbox as an option.

    Keep the old Yahoo inbox as an option. It is not difficult to read. It looks very nice with the Lighthouse theme. And it being an option would show to older users that you still care about their preferred experience.

    Hey, you want me to either pay for more storage or delete some emails. Happy to delete old emails but you only allow me to delete 50 at a time (100 to empty trash). Why don't you let me bulk delet all those old emails that I pull up in search?
