  1. Create separate mailbox for starred emails

    I'm looking for a way to see all and ONLY (as in a list) the emails of mine that I have starred, but I don't see where to look. It seems like there should be a subcategory under "Inbox" but I don't see one. Does such a list exist? If so, where? if not, please consider adding one!

  2. PUT THE THEME SETTINGS WHERE YOU COULD FIND THEM IN TWO(2) SECONDS

    PUT THE THEME SETTINGS WHERE YOU CAN FIND THAT CONTROL SETTING ON THE MAIN MENU. IT HAS TAKEN ME WELL OVER AN HOUR TO FIND WHERE IT IS LOCATED. I NEED TO CHANGE MY BACKGROUND SETTING TO A LIGHTER COLOR AS IT IS NOW DARKER AND I CAN SEE WHAT THE HECK I AM TYPING!!! Yes, you are correct I am not a happy camper now.

  3. folders

    I can't move any of my important emails to a saved folder in this awful updated version!! I create the name of it but the 'move to' doesn't highlight therefore it won't move, plus the old option before was much better as you could move the email while it was still open. This version now gives you the impression that you have to come out of the email, create a folder name then go back to it.... HOWEVER you still can't move it. What on earth is going on with this shambles of an email system that everyone cannot work…

  4. emails print with microscopic font despite my setting set to large type

    I can enter settings and set font to large size
    However when I print out an important email it comes out with microscopic font size
    Please reinstate my ability to chose font and type size and ENABLE me to print out an email in readable size

  5. We're very unhappy with the current version of E mail. Type size too small and unchangeable; can't embolden words; and other issues

    Increase type size; allow embolden and color in type facing; allow italics; carry the delete function on all older E mails so they can be deleted without scrolling back to the top of the page; show all E mails not just the most recent; correct address book function so it works with the addresses it retains. We much prefer the array we had a few years ago.

  6. Give us what we had...what we deserve! We are not cave people!

    Quite simply, you can just put it back the way it was; A fully functional, customizable, word processing type program that allows for more control over the simplest things like font size, type & color. I mean, I can't even BOLD a word if I want to! It's ABSURD that you do not offer this personal control any longer. The fact that you can only see 25 current emails per page is LUDICROUS as well. Why should I have to lazily scroll from page to page to find a prior email? Why do you even HAVE a "SETTING" page, when…

  7. I want to search the email in my trash

    When you did a search in the old email, the search results would tell you what folder the email was in AND it would search your trash. I can't find any way to search the emails in my trash so when I accidentally delete one, it takes a long time to find it. This is silly when the old version did it automatically

  9. just simple mail

    Just tell the programmers they don't have to put their stamp on the program, it doesn't have to be elegant, it just has to work.

  12. Let us use the '*' when adding a blocked address for spam emails.

    Why doesn't using the '*' in blocked senders list work? I want to block everything to the left of the '@' in an address, but those addresses still get through. eg. I want to block any address in the @abcsender.com domain, but when I add *@abcsender.com, I still get emails from them.

  13. Please remove delete all in the mailbox as a possible option if you click the delete button with out having selected any particular email.

    1st PLEASE remove delete the whole mail box as a possible option if you click the trashcan icon with out having selected any emails. This is a very very bad idea. Put delete all as an option in the email drop down menu. This should be changed immediately before someone with a large sum of emails ends up accidentally moving their whole box into the deleted emails section.

    2nd, I like the old email system better as some things were faster on it (such as not having to double click keep as new and apply and instead being able to…

  15. Go bacl to old format

    I have been periodically getting a random pop up asking me if I want to delete 10,000 emails. I am usually very careful to select "no" however tonight I accidently hit yes- poof- everything from 2022 and 2023 gone. Not in trash folder and "recently deleted" folder no longer exists. I had to join premier at my expense to talk to someone to get my emails restored. I dont know why I get this pop up and I asked that it be removed and was told it could not be removed. I shoud not have to pay to have my…

  16. It's been months

    It's been months and you still haven't fixed such simple things. FONT!!! Please, FFS, let me change my font size. Fix it so the arrows in my e-mails work ALL THE TIME!! Stop making us take extra steps to do things. APPLY, APPLY, APPLY, give me a break. Now, you have an extra TWO STEPS to delete my trash. Can't just hit delete and delete it, you have to authorize and then okay it after the mails been deleted. What happened to efficiency?? IT'S JUST BS WHAT WE HAVE TO PUT UP WITH IN THIS NEW FORMAT!!!

  17. Tech Support

    I think you need to better brief your tech support people. I called this morning asking how I could move between signatures on this system and was told it was not possible. After spending a fair bit of time today working through the settings, I found it really is good and is actually faster than the old way--but this should have easily been told to me by your tech people--not through my trial and error

  19. medicare.gov

    I've just discovered that you've been sending emails from Medicare.gov about my health insurance for the coming year to my spam folder. What the ****? You can't tell a legitimate government email address from a spammer? You've caused me to lose notifications about this years open enrollment and important options for next year.

  20. This is a suggestion

    As it is now this software , for me , is almost unworkable.

    I am for long time in USA, I have never seen such a failure.

    I hope that you will correct it soon.

    Good Luck.
