    @yahoomail the Android Yahoo mail app update ruined the search function. I can no longer edit my search terms and have to start over every time. Please fix this!" I search my email using search strings to find specific things, people, and correspondence. I was able to modify my search strings and quickly try the search again. Can no longer do that. Now have to type out a whole new search string every time I need to modify it....terrible. Productivity Killer. #EmailSearch #YahooMail

    @yahoomail @Yahoo Hey there, Yahoo buddies. So, you’re clamping down on available email storage… which is fair enough, but the page to subscribe to get more storage doesn’t work….. which is not fair enough. Pretty please sort out the page or don’t charge for it. Cheers!

    This is crazy, and it just stopped being an issue about 2 minutes ago. Idk what was going on. Maybe I was being routed through a bad sector, and the node was refusing me entry. @yahoo @yahoomail. I am not tech illiterate, I just don't care for it.

    @SoveyX Comcast/Xfinity is moving their email accounts to Yahoo Mail. "To upgrade user experience and reduce internal operation costs". I'll pass. FYI.

    @yahoomail Second DM while her email is working on her laptop running windows 10, it’s telling her it’s not working on her iPad! And it’s repeating the statement that she can’t send or receive emails, which appears not to be true. Please get this sorted properly!

  • IanSnowWriter

    Here's an example of bad overengineering. The @Yahoo Mail app has started sorting emails you frequently delete into bundles so you can delete them faster - which are all hidden under a drop-down from the rest of your emails, adding an extra step to go through to delete emails one by one. It doesn't matter if you regularly read these emails, they're all lumped together anyways. Now here are the really annoying parts about that - one, there's no opt-out for the bundling, meaning you're stuck with that ****** sorting feature. Two, when you delete emails manually, on occasion, emails in this group will completely disappear. So far, they've come back later, but this is an enormous pain in the *** that no one asked for and can't opt out of. So why? What's the point of this? Why does Yahoo mail insist on these autosorting features like this that constantly hide away emails, the entire reason you'd use the service?

    @iKodeZero that sounds like just a gmail issue, try out Hotmail or Yahoo mail next (yes they still exist)

    @yahoomail if there’s a problem with generating codes for email recovery you should at least tell your users so that we can switch on to another serious mail service…what’s this madness all about in sending out codes for text messages

    FOR YEARS I'VE RELIED ON @yahoomail FOR ALL MY EMAIL NEEDS, BUT ITS RELIABILITY HAS FALLEN IN THE PROVERBIAL SHITTER! I CAN'T REMEMBER HOW MANY PASSWORDS, PASSCODES AND TEXT VERIFICATIONS FOLLOWED BY CONFIRMATIONS ON BACKUP EMAIL ACCOUNTS ARE REQUIRED NOW BUT I GET ALL THE CODES, AND IT ALWAYS TAKES A ****, I THINK, IT'S AT THE 75TH PASSWORD LEVEL. HELL I CANNOT KEEP UP WITH THEM NOW. NOW I HAVE TO BLOW A DAY TRYING TO FIND SOMEBODY THAT SPEAKS ENGLISH SO I CAN FIGURE OUT WTF IS GOING ON. THE IPHONE APP NO LONGER WORKS, AND I CANNOT LOGIN VIA THE DESKTOP NOW. THIS ABSOLUTELY SUCKS!
