  1. Impact of latest email authentication standards required of sender emails are causing yahoo email cutomers to not receive valid emails

    Dear Yahoo Mail developers,

    Unfortunately Yahoo Mail's latest email authentication standards implemented in 2024, that now require sender email servers to autheniticate email being sent to a yahoo email account (per new standards yahoo established and is implementing now) are causing multiple yahoo email cutomers (like myself) to not receive valid emails needed.

    As a yahoo email customer, this is quite concerning. It is causing a serious break down in communication loop with individuals I have been in contact with (exchanged email with previously - suddenly broken and preventing others from being able to respond or send emails and informaiton…

  2. Single-click OPEN

    A single-click is always intend to open my email. I never want it to sort all of my emails by that sender! I do not want it set this way as I would not use this feature often, therefore, it should NOT be the default!

  3. Attachment is Hiding or Missing After Mail Opened by another Technology Device

    Fix the missing/hiding "attachment(s)" after mail has been received and opened by a different technology device. I had to return to the device for which I opened the actual mail on to retrieve the attachment(s). Not acceptable.

  5. Date limit older emails?

    When sorting my emails from Oldest to Newest I've noticed that my oldest emails stop mid 2003. However, I've used the account from 1999. What happened to the emails from then? Is there a limit on how long emails are saved?

  6. Recipients

    When sending an email the address goes after "To". Now all the sudden after I enter the email address in "To", "to" changes to the word "recipient". Is this just to confuse us or is there some actual reasoning behind it?

  7. find emails from

    Being able to right-click on an email and select "Find emails from... " would be phenomenal for so many reasons. I know there is the search option and the sort by option but they are way more time consuming than a simple right click. sometimes I want to find everything from one sender after reading an email without having to go back up to the search. If I type "Apple" i get everthing with an apple icon in their message but if I right click on an apple email and select "find emails from sender" then I would pull up…

  9. Security

    on 04-03-2024
    I was tortured by a whats app call
    I thought it was real and showed him
    the yono app that i had logged in.

    in future we need to block all non sense.

    So I am coming up with corrections that needs
    to be done to the online - web app and phone
    software updates.

    we need to build a database of illegal cpu id
    and phone imei number that has to be checked
    before logging in to any bank application
    either by phone or by web.

    Alternatively
    login should be allowed
    from 1 desktop/laptop and 1 phone…

  10. security

    when I go to my email account, and click on a folder (any folder), the system automatically opens one of the emails within that folder. that is nonsense. the fact that I am checking to ensure something didn't accidentally get put into spam folder does not mean that I want things in spam to open. let me just see the contents and then I most likely will delete everything. but the system opens something I have no interest in seeing - nor do I wish to confirm to the sender of spam that I have opened it and am ripe…

  11. Cox.net transition is a nightmare

    Since I started my Cox transfer it has been a nightmare on my Mac and my PC. Even my My.Yahoo home page on the Mac is screwed up. Only device working properly is my Samsung Phone.

  14. Backup email

    Security - - Yahoo prefers I have a Backup account, but keeps deleting my Yahoo backup accounts due to non use. If I try to use another source (Proton Mail for example) Yahoo refuses to accept it. Security needs to understand that backup means backup, not primary and the backup will not be used, unless Yahoo is stupid enough to block the primary. dighambara@yahoo.com dighambara@protonmail.com

  15. account switching

    Account switching used to happen through a single drop down menu. Now there is the drop down menu, and we have to click through a "switch account" option, and then move to another menu to switch accounts. Why the extra step all of a sudden? Please eliminate the additional step.

  17. Please remove the unnecessary "just one tap away" screen

    This is when users did after about 10 to 17 logins and ot is still there. This is totally unnecessary and must be removed.

  19. Filter Actions - Move and Mark as Read

    I couldn't vote on the one already created, but additional actions for filters would be amazing. Things that are recuring emails that we don't need to read every time but want them for reference should be moved and marked as read via filter settings.

    Also feels like a very simple thing, and if this (along with other additional filter options) were part of the yahoo+ I would highly consider purchasing.

    Really don't want to move away from yahoo email, but I am starting to consider due to how limited this functionality is.
