Don’t miss the next Y!Mail Workshop: Getting to know Yahoo! Mail
- Posted October 2nd, 2008 at 3:56 pm by Ryan
- Categories: All-New Mail, Classic Mail, General, Tips & Tutorials
For the next edition of our Yahoo! Mail Workshop series, we are going to be focusing on understanding the basics of Yahoo! Mail. Join us on Wednesday, October 8th, from 3-4PM PT, for the live, moderated chat with members of the Yahoo! Mail team. Whether you are using Classic, or the All-New Yahoo! Mail, we want your questions. It could be something as simple as setting your chat status in the New Mail. Or maybe where to go to update your signature. You ask and we will do our best to answer.
You will be able to submit questions in advance by visiting our Workshop page, as well as live during the event. So get those questions in and be sure to be there!

Whenever you try to expand your email page out to the right, you get a pop up message that tells you about Yahoo! Mail Plus. That in itself is OK, but when you go to clear the box and check off “Do not show this to me again” it shows up again anyway. Can’t this be stopped???

I really wish someone could tell me how to enable my chat feature again. It has worked fine for a long time. Now it just says loading chat and will not show available, busy, etc. status of any contacts. Can’t figure out what has happened. HELP……

I started having the same problem with “chat”. I have Windows Vista–and was told that Yahoo is incompatible with some of the Vista software–although it has worked for 11 months! I have Verizon Yahoo–and there are alot of complaints–as of 10-17-08. It is keeping me “off line” even though I clicked on “available”. It sez I have to have adobe Flash installed(I do) but it is not recognizing this.(as of 10,17,08.

Does anyone know the correct settings so that Yahoo Address Auto-complete will work with Safari 3.1 on a Mac??

Provide ability to change the Subject Line of received messages (I used to add my own personal “tags” in subject lines when I used to use Outlook).
When will Yahoo Sync work with Vista?…when the next Windows O/S comes out?
Allow Folders to have Sub-Folders.
Be able to search by fields (i.e. Search attachments named attach.doc, Search messages sent by joe@ymail.com, Search messages received between 1/1/2008 and 2/1/2008)
Make an email message as a Calendar Item, Task or Notepad Item (The “SuperTags” or whatever you call them, aren’t really ready for prime time.)
Ability to see everyone in the header, without using the pop-up “Full Header”.
Ability to add senders (and other recipients) to Contacts.
Add Y! Messenger features to webchat (block, notify me when log on/off, etc.).
Correct the “Button/Frame” issue: If you click on the “Forward” or “Reply” buttons, you have to remind yourself to click in the body of the new message, otherwise any of the keystroke commands will activate while you type your message. (I.e. If I type “What’s Up?” the “T” will activate the Text Message window, and I’ll have “Wha’ U?”)
Add Voice/Video to webchat.
Add the ability to delete custom webchat status messages.
I thought Y! Mail Plus was not supposed to have the sidebar ads. What’s up with that?
Get all services to work (Notepad, Calendar, Tasks, etc.)
Make Y! Go sync all services, not just email and contacts (1.0 did. What happened?)

I hate what you have done. First you lost all my contacts; then you charged $19.95 and lost all my folders; now I am unable to use my sync application so none of my computers can speak to each other. I hate Yahoo. Who gave you permission to touch my mail and to dig into my files. Most of my current programs do not work because “they cannot locate my mail server.” You have been a disaster to my business and education records. And it is impossible to locate a real person at Yahoo who is able to talk. I do not want to blog with the world or re-spend the hours I have spent reading your selected help questions. I want to contact a person. I have had two emails confirming that you have received my case and will get back to me in 24 hours. Well it is well past that time and no response!

Either there are no new news stories in sports or something is wrong with the mail news. When I log in this is the news I keep getting …same old news. Any ideas??
IOC: No proof Chinese gymnasts underage (AP)
China was asked to provide additional documents proving that five of the six members of its gold medal women’s gymnastics team were old enough to compete in the Beijing Olympics, in hopes of ending persistent questions about the girls’ ages. The International Olympic Committee said Friday there is still no proof anyone cheated, but it asked gymnastics officials to investigate “what have been a…

I’ve not had any problems with the news stories.

i hear some people squawking about nothing and some with legitimate suggestions/requests. i have used Yahoo! mail for about 10 years now and have been very happy with it so far. i have the Plus so i pay the extra $20 and other than the inordinate amount of SPAM, that is put into that folder, it works quite well. i WOULD like to have a priority system though, high, low, normal for new messages. and the options, why do we have to go external, to the OLD mail to get this fixed?

When I checked my E-mail today, someone has used my E-mail address and my name to post a message. I have nothing to do with this message. This post was deliberately sent in my name using my E-mail address. Hw to trace the culprit? Please take urgent steps to trace the culprit and take necessary action before he does great harm to me.
October 5th, 2008 at 6:57 pm
I have a glitch to post. I went to the Yahoo Mail Log in web site thingy, and it wouldn’t let me in and every time I’d click log in, It would refresh the page. Does anyone know how to fix this error?
October 5th, 2008 at 9:11 pm
hello thanks for the security setting for my web page.
October 5th, 2008 at 10:00 pm
Why did the yahoo mail delete all that was in the inbox ? This has done this to us several times and it is extremely MADDENING!!!!! Yahoo FREEZES UP AND SUDDENLY SHUTS US DOWN. WHY WHY WHY?
October 6th, 2008 at 8:33 am
Is anyone else having issues accessing their yahoo mail?
November 3rd, 2008 at 8:09 pm
Now I canot read my emails I get them to open but cannot get the body of the email
October 6th, 2008 at 12:19 pm
Y’all have really porked the pooch this time. I too have been using Yahoo mail for a long time and was quite happy with what I had. Are you going to give me an option to switch back or should I switch to somewhere else like Google?
October 6th, 2008 at 2:25 pm
I am so glad that i discover the ymail.com because on my new email account i can do chatting my friends. You don’t need to down load like messenger(I’ll never try messenger). But i think ymail.com is more easy to do chat directly in your inbox.
October 6th, 2008 at 4:03 pm
i know right!?!?!?!?!
anyway…………….ANY1 can email me at carriechurch16@yahoo.com

As of October 7, 2008, the HTML paragraph spacing issue has not been resolved. Does anyone at Yahoo Mail Blog even read these comments?
October 7th, 2008 at 10:06 am
Thanks, Yahoo blog. The first time I clicked to see what Liam was, it crashed and closed all my browser windows. The second and final time I’m visiting is now.
