  1. Why is yahoo going to sent file every time i open mail instead of inbox? I am not using the same link.

    Yahoo going to sent file every time I open mail instead of inbox. I am not using the same link. It does not matter how I open Yahoo mail. It suddenly started going to sent file and I have to click again for the inbox. It is very frustrating.

  2. Switching between Yahoo! accounts is too difficult now after this recent update.

    I have two main Yahoo accounts. And I have an extra two accounts that I don't use often, but I don't want to remove them because it is a pain to add them again.

    Before this recent update, I could just click my account icon and the other account would be the second one from the top and it was just one single click to switch accounts. Super fast and easy.

    Now, if I want to switch accounts, after I click my account icon, I have to click "add or switch accounts", and then it will show the two accounts…

  3. when I click on the "search for messages from this sender" magnifying glass icon

    when I click on the "search for messages from this sender" magnifying glass icon, the resulting screen has the usual information about the email - sender, subject, etc., but the second to last category is different - it shows the folder the email resides in. Well, it shows part of the folder. They all say "Yahoo." That is pretty useless. If I hover over "Yahoo," it shows me the folder: "Yahoo/GCFL," etc., but that is not very accessible. Unfortunately, there is no way to expand that category so I can see the entire folder information. WHY?
    I suggest you either…

  4. You lost one of my Cox accounts in the transition.

    I was forced to move from Cox to Yahoo. In the transition you lost one of my accounts: nkbbmb98@cox.net. We should be given a FREE month of support.

    Also, I cannot set up my accounts on my MacBook using Apple Mail. I've followed the setup instructions exactly.

  7. 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…

  8. Scan For and Show Upcoming Bills

    Yahoo mail scans our email for package deliveries and shows us a future delivery date. How about doing the same but for bills. Then create a standalone bills widget so we can easily keep tabs and be reminded of upcoming bills.

  9. security of 3rd factor authentication.

    2nd or 3rd factor authentication app.

    2nd factor authentication of OTP by SMS is no longer
    sufficient and adequate.

    This app which runs on registered mobile,
    must have an option like

    I am incapacitated
    Disable for 3 or 7 days.
    This will disable login until the person
    goes to bank in person and resets login
    authentication once again from the bank.

    We need to come out with a procedure for
    emails re login after a online mugging.

    OTP BY SMS HAS TO BE STOPPED ONCE AND FOR ALL
    OTP CAN BE MUGGED EASILY
    ONE CAN STEAL A MOBILE AND ALL…

  11. executable emails.

    gmail and yahoo should show with a different icon

    mails with executable code has to be indicated.

    Ex. Mails from autodesk has a code to destroy the mail

    This potentially means anything can be done from the
    mail with embedded coding.

    Any mail which has any executable should be shown
    in a different color.

    it is my choice to keep it or forward it or delete it
    I may not even open for it may contain bots or
    email viruses.

    kindly do the needful.

  12. 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…

    I am currently creating group emails. I'm numbering the groups so I'd like to have them show up in numerical order. Not this: 1, 10, 11, 2, 3. Is there a setting that would allow me to see them in order.

  17. I'm trying to change the time format to 24-hour clock. Have spent 30 minutes on it and still can't do it. Why is this so hard?

    Have googled it but none of the answers are correct. Seems like this should be one of the main options in Settings.

  18. Recover or forward e-mail from a former e-mail address

    For those of us who thought we changed all accounts tied to a former e-mail address, it would sure be nice to have the option to either forward all mail to a new address for a short duration after account deactivation, or to be able to "pickup where we left off" so that in the event that we missed an account we don't use frequently, we have the option to receive the vital e-mails we need to change the last few accounts we forgot about...

  19. E-MAIL FONT SIZE IS TOO SMALL

    I have searched for my topic and noticed that others have asked the same question, with no real solution offered by Yahoo. The question is, why is the font in the e-mail so itty, bitty, teeny, weeny? It is extremely difficult to read the e-mail. I am not speaking of the e-mail body, but the "IN BOX" font. No...trying to enlarge the font does not work. THE IN BOX FONT IS TOOOOOOO SMALL!

  20. search emails alphabetically

    Why can't I search alphabetically my emails? that way I can scroll and read emails only by Home depot, or amazon, etc....or delete all emails by that sender.
    AT@T lets you do that, its so convenient to delete unnecessary emails all at once.
