The main problem I have is with cutting and pasting.

I tried to write an email yesterday and I attempted to cut and paste a paragraph into the middle of the email. However, I couldn’t do it. I tried about 20 times and no matter where I put the cursor, the paste would go to the very start of the email.

Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone know how to solve it?

I am about to go to gmail!

Thanks!
I don't have a problem posting copied items anywhere in the emails, so I can't help with that, but I may be able to help with the priority issue.

Click on the 3 dots "..." at the bottom of the folders list and select Settings from the drop down. Go to the Personalize Inbox option and turn Inbox Categories off. Close the yahoo mail tabs and when you reopen them, you shouldn't see the categories.

Has anyone found an alternative email service that is better than the new Yahoo! version?

To change it back to All emails, click the three dots (...) on the left section and select Settings. Click the slider to turn off "Inbox Categories".

I’ve been on the new format for a couple of weeks now and I have all of my folders including spam and trash.

The biggest issue I had with the new format was that it only showed select messages in the Inbox. Had to change the criteria to show ALL messages in the inbox.

I also had to go into the spam folder and mark a bunch of messaged as NOT spam so future messages from those senders will go to my inbox.

Yeah, they keep "improving" it, all while losing market share and ****in' off their long-term base.

Same for Ebay.

Is AI suggesting and making these changes ?

Look for the three dots on the left hand side.
