4. It looks like they "streamlined" it to some extent.

The original mail if you marked something as spam accidentally, it was spam forever, no undo.

Now, we no longer have that problem, but like you say they're collating incoming into different folders and to see it all except those marked as spam you have to click "All". And as a bonus, a daily spam seems to like into the email box as "Offers".

Let's face it, Yahoo never got anything 100% right. But it does work better than the first day last week.

I'm still wary of repeated offers to create backup addresses because I've created them before. There is backup email, backup phone, and now they're pushing 2-step authorization (as are eBay, some financial accounts). Sometimes I wish I could toss it all.
