@yahoomail @Yahoo It's a terrible update! Inbox - can't see full name of sender or title of email but see so much of the message. Stays that way even when I switch message preview settings. I want inbox to show key details of the sender and subject. I'll open it to read the detail of the message!

HEY YOU! (@melodyscarlett) reported 55 minutes ago
@LeperMessiah18 @yahoomail They asked me to contact them via DM, which I did. This is what they said: "Thank you for sharing this information. We recommend checking the app again later, as this may be a temporary bug. We apologize for any inconvenience this issue may have caused you" App STILL not working!
Ian Snow, ****'s Dickens of **** (@IanSnowWriter) reported 56 minutes ago
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?
