    @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!

    @hillyDavid_72 @YahooCare Same problem here (also UK). Sub-folder menu opens when pressing Inbox icon on iPad but inactive on iPhone. I’m sure it was working yesterday (Sunday). Webmail folders unaffected. Seems like a widespread app update issue. Please sort @yahoomail

    @TelecomTalk My internet journey started in 2006, at that time I used to spend 30 rs for half an hour to surf the internet, I remember that time dial up internet is very slow which I used only for chatting in Orkut, Yahoo Mail, Yahoo Messenger, AOL Messenger, Skype

    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?

    @YahooCare @Todd_Spence @YahooCare 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 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!

    @KatrinaSoc @yahoomail Katrina, I am having a similar problem. I'm unable to sign in to my mail account. When you DMd @Yahoo were they able to help you recover your account? My account has an old email address set as recovery like you.

    @UIDAI Is it possible to change the e-mail id online? Because yahoo mail is getting login issues off late. Most official emails are on yahoomail. If possible kindly bring the change of email id on Aadhaar portal/ maadhaar app /aadhaar app. Thank you.

    Is anyone else having issues seeing their past emails in Yahoo mail? Or getting new emails but only seeing a handful of old ones? Trying to see if this is just a temporary problem on their side. @yahoomail

    @albertm1234 @yahoomail Albert - it's out across the United States. People are reporting it on various outage sites, so Yahoo knows about it even if the bots keep asking you to send a DM.

    @yahoomail Really unhappy with the latest update to the Yahoo Mail app! I paid for the app because I liked the layout and ease. New layout is not user friendly and too much like AOL mail. Please stop changing things that aren't broken! 😡😡😡
