Alli O'Hara No. 3665 on a translist... 🙄🤡🌍 (@badgersrock22) reported@status_is_down My yahoo mail is a mess. Ever tried getting any REAL assistance/advice from yahoo? You can't. They don't want to assist customers in any way. After about 15 yrs I'm going to have to shut it down and move away from yahoo.

Chris Patterson (@ChrisPatterDu) reported@yahoomail @Yahoo I see you deleted the ability to select and delete using week, month, year etc. Now I have to select and run my finger down a list of hundreds of emails. Whoever got rid of this should be fired immediately. You have made the iPhone Yahoo app useless. Great work!
