  1. STOP interfering with my emails from my friend. You don't have the right to interfere.

    Get AI out of my personal emails. I'm sick of being abused by Yahoo. You're the ones I don't want to hear from. Let me get my emails.

  2. NOT USER FRIENDLY

    There is not enough screen room availavle to read email. There is to much space above the reading area that is wasted. I only have 1.25 inches to read email and to navigate email. This version of email is not user friendly. Please! Fix this or change my email to the older version and make the 'Go Back Button' available. Thanks!

  4. Reduce Clutter

    Please give users the option to remove the column section to the right that is for Starred emails and Calendar. This might not even be used by some users, so would be nice to allow us option to disable the view if unused. I personally DO use it, but prefer where it was on the far left near inboxes as options to click into, then a new tab opens for me to view in full. It takes up too much space especially when you're on a smaller computer screen. Difficult to read emails.

  5. Please make the select all checkbox always visible!

    The only way that the Select All checkbox appears for me is if I first select an email. Please just make it ALWAYS visible!

  6. Go back to old way of just hovering over folder name to click on it

    That new black oval box that hangs out over the folder list is really annoying. It is not right over the folder so distracting and you cannot click on it. I can see very well what folder my mouse is over without the extra box in the wrong place. The less clutter, in general, in email, the better. Please don't try to improve by adding clutter.

  7. automatically translation

    Please do not automatically translate email content from other languages into traditional Chinese. It causes trouble. The translation is not exactly right and may provide the wrong or different meanings.

  10. Search within folders

    I need to be able to search within folders, such as, all the results in the inbox so that I can move them to the proper folder. I don't want to move things out of the SENT box to a folder, that'd just be silly, so please allow me to search within folders, not just within email accounts.

  11. Search results cards

    Why are there now cards (big boxes with the email results) in my search results? They are taking up so much real estate I can't see the rest of my search results.
    If you must keep the cards (please don't) give us the option to turn them off. They aren't even the results I were looking for.

  14. Search results are obscured

    When searching on a particular word I get results where two results are highlighted at the top as two windows. The remainder of the results appear below these, but no matter how I try to format or change screen size etc. I can see at most one line or even one-half of a line. I cannot expand the remainder of the results and I cannot reduce the size of the top items highlighted at the top. I end up having no way to search my mail.

    Hi Marc, thank you for the feedback and elaborating. Definitely super helpful. Can you share with us your browser, browser version and send us any screenshots to oasis.mail.feedback@yahooinc.com? This would be super helpful in debugging and replicating the issue.

  15. Stop Showing Ads in Yahoo Mail+

    When I signed up for Mail+, one of the key benefits was an ad-free experience across Yahoo. Since then, that benefit has disappeared, and they've even reduced the amount of inbox storage available. Yet I'm still paying for the "no ads" promise.

    So imagine my surprise when I opened my inbox and was greeted by a massive promotion for 50% off the first year of Monarch—presented as a special "perk" for Mail+ users. But let's be honest: it's an ad. And not a subtle one, either. It's huge.

  16. FIX YAHOO MAIL PLS

    Please just FIX yahoo mail! it is the worst on the market by far!
    As when an email chain is created and grows due to emails going back and forth. It just jumbles the emails top to bottom, it is a nightmare. Navigating an email chain is impossible.

    i don't want use yahoo mail but i have to.

    Look at outlook mail and do what they do.

  17. 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!

  18. Copy/paste an email address

    Why is it impossible to copy/paste an email address?

    For example, in the "To" you add a name. Then, there's no way to click it, to grab the text of the email address.
