Are you getting too many emails?
Is your inbox getting overwhelmed with too many emails, making it difficult to find anything? Well, worry no more, especially if you’re using Yahoo as your email provider. I see two solutions to this problem. Solution #1: Unsubscribe, and Solution #2: Organize your emails using a simple sequence of instructions.
Here’s what you can do: Set up a folder in Yahoo Mail and create a filter that will automatically send specific emails (by name or other criteria) to the designated folder. This way, you can still receive all your emails and unsubscribe at your leisure. I never knew Yahoo Mail had such a feature! Unlike Yahoo, Microsoft Outlook uses scripts to direct incoming emails to folders. Enjoy!

Access Settings: First, log in to your Yahoo Mail account and navigate to the Settings menu. You can usually find this by clicking on the gear icon in the upper-right corner of the Yahoo Mail interface.
Select “More Settings”: In the Settings menu, look for an option labeled “More Settings” or something similar. Click on it to access additional settings.
Go to “Filters”: Within the settings, you should see a tab or section labeled “Filters” or “Filters and Blocked Addresses.” Click on this option to manage your email filters.
Create a New Filter: Look for an option to create a new filter or rule. This might be labeled as “Add” or “Create Filter.” Click on it to start creating a new filter.
Set Filter Criteria: In the filter creation dialog, you’ll be prompted to define the criteria for the filter. This includes things like sender, subject, keywords, and more. Choose the criteria that you want to use to filter incoming emails.
Define Action: Once you’ve set the criteria, you need to define what action Yahoo Mail should take when an email matches those criteria. This typically involves selecting the option to move the email to a specific folder.
Save the Filter: After setting the criteria and defining the action, make sure to save the filter. You may need to click on a “Save” or “Done” button to finalize the filter creation process.
Test the Filter: It’s a good idea to test the filter by sending yourself a test email that matches the criteria you’ve set. Make sure that the email is correctly sorted into the designated folder.
Manage Existing Filters: If you have existing filters set up, you can manage them by editing, deleting, or disabling them as needed. This can be done from the Filters settings menu.
By following these steps, you can set up email filters in Yahoo Mail to automatically sort incoming emails into designated folders based on your specified criteria.
