New Yahoo mail inbox doesn't display new messages in bold font?
Yes it is a poor change they've made with that today. Hopefully it's just a glitch and not a design change. The black dot http://imgur.com/vgEXg8g is apparently the indicator of an unread message now which means you can easily change the status from read to unread. That's a nice feature but why they can't combine it with the line being in bold like it used to be, I don't know. Hopefully someone somewhere is reading this and otherwise, here's the link to Yahoo Feedback for mail http://yahoo.uservoice.com/forums/208925 (US mail) and http://yahoo.uservoice.com/forums/215446 (Yahoo Mail Themes and Conversations) so you can leave your comments for the Y!

What are good ways to choose a professional/proper email name/address?
Email addresses when you are a student, or from your employment will have their own formats, so I will address Personal email accounts.For Personal Email accounts, I am not an expert, but here are my thoughts and reactions:I am not impressed favorably by email addresses at "HotMail" or "Yahoo."Sorry, just my opinion. They don't seem serious.I have a negative feeling of email addresses at AOL, mostly as a feeling that people using AOL have AOL as their home page and are seeing the internet through the AOL filter. My feeling is that they are new to the internet, or never got off the on ramp. Again, just an opinion.I think that the best generic email domain is Gmail because Google is a serious and highly respected company. Also their free accounts have many great features and they do an AWESOME job filtering SPAM.I agree with Andrew Hennigan that the best short names are taken, and that "JohnSmith82" is not the format.Here is an example that I would use, if your name was Andrew James Harmon. I think that shorter is better, but remember that this is a personal email, and people responding or sending messages to you will at most only need to key in your email address one time. Mostly they will just click on it. So recognizable is more important than brevity.The following options are in the sequence I would try:Harmon@AHarmon@AJHarmon@AndrewHarmon@AndrewJHarmon@AndrewJamesHarmon@A.Harmon@A.J.Harmon@Andrew.Harmon@AndrewJ.Harmon@Andrew.James.Harmon@NOTES: I personally do not like an underscore ( _ ) between words. The emails system does not like blank spaces and inserts an _ in their place.I have used capital letters as you would in normal writing. The email systems IGNORES capital letters, treating or converting them to lower case. BUT humans find it much easier to read and recognize the add address with the capitalsExample: andrewjamesharmon vs. AndrewJamesHarmonI always advise customers to use capital letters in the same way with their domain names, unless they are so short and universally recognizable that it is not needed. So fedex or Fedex are both immediately recognized, as opposed to dogwalkingandshampoowithtlc vs. DogWalkingAndShampooWithTLC
How can i get yahoo to NOT automatically delete my trash folder. I want to delete them manually always.?
Move them to another folder YOU create ... (You can even call it 'MY Trash'). Then you have copies just in case. We have absolutely no control over when Yahoo deletes the Trash. Copies might still be in Sent Mail if you have set that Option in your Profile. Save what you might need by moving them into a separate folder you create - they stay there until YOU decide to delete them, and you can delete many at one time too. NOW . . . ACT FAST! You have just posted all your e-mail addresses online for many spammer programs to harvest or create malicious attacks. You will get oodles of spam from now on. DELETE THIS QUESTION NOW! (No, I'm not yelling at you, just trying to save your addies.) If you let this question go to voting, these addresses will be search-able on the web forever. I'm offering advice, so I don't care about losing points for answering.
How do i know the total emails in my inbox?
You can find the total number of emails in your Inbox by hovering your mouse over the "Inbox" title on the side menu. Don't click it ... if you move your mouse over it and leave it there, a box will pop up with the number.
PLEASE HELP! I can't get rid of this spam anyway I try!?
These websites keep sending me spam emails, e.g. software_innovations5@powatih.com, software_innovations5@senuta.com, software_innovations5@upacist.com, etc. and I put them into the spam folder and they automatically go in there now but Yahoo still tells me that I have a new email when they're delivered into the spam folder. Is there ANY WAY AT ALL to remove anything with the address "software_innovations5"@whatever.com or at least make them not show up as new emails?
