    The bigger issue, I think, is the durability of digital preservation. As indicated by the erasure of geocities, livejournal, usenet, yahoo mail, and other internet troves by the private company that was supposed to steward them, digital data is never really safe.

    YAHOO If you have Yahoo mail and do not like that they forced the new interface on their users, COMPLAIN, on social media and look to change emails as a backup. If your a lawyer look into what users can do to complain. The new interface was forced on users to act a beta testers, and it is slow. They took away the ability to go back to the old interface. Maybe get the news media involved.

    Dear @Yahoo, it is currently impossible to check my "blocked senders" list on Yahoo Mail to see whether I blocked someone by mistake. All I can see is the option to block additional addresses. Your chatbot (which is not that great btw) and current manuals seem to assume that the list appears but it does not. I tried switching to the old mail system but the problem persists. If I cannot unblock addresses that I blocked by mistake, the entire email service becomes pretty useless because I know I can be missing stuff I don't want to miss ;-)

    Security Issue with Yahoo Mail ?? Was logging into Yahoo Mail, was being asked for verification from phone etc. The first OTP that came was from VIPINDIASHAADI - naturally I ignored. Requested again, this time from Yahoo - but the OTP is same, which means the first one was valid also. But this cannot happen without a mixup that definitely has a security implication. #yahoo #Cybersecurity

    @YahooCare @yahoomail New Busi Mail web interface has two problems (1) Printing emails cuts off the right edges/full message doesn't print (2) The Inbox defaults to "Primary." I'd like it to default to "All" so I don't miss messages. + your "contact us" button don't send.

    @MrNJ39 @yahoomail Agreed. This version is rubbish. The font is dreadful and is counter intuitive. The previous version was fine. Nothing wrong with it. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. It wasn’t. Please give us the old, good version back.
