This post in Y Answers appears to be a year old - but thought I'd share anyway. I do not ever remember seeing this Smart Views (oxymoron!) in my email until today. I HATE this feature.
Hopefully someone will respond on how to remove this folder. I just noticed the same thing and chatted to a Yahoo agent about it, here is the script of the chat. Hope this helps... Phoebe: yes its a folder that I don't need.
It basically shows some of the same mails in my inbox Nikki: Thanks for waiting. Nikki: Smart folder is a new default folder created by Yahoo! Mail that gives you an option to view emails came from your Contacts and not from outside Contacts.
Unfortunately, this feature cannot be remove nor disable. Phoebe: why isnt that option available? Phoebe: I mean I already have so many folders and I do not need another one just repeating some of the mails in my inbox Nikki: The feature or functionality that you're describing is not currently available.
Nikki: However, our Engineering and Marketing teams want to hear from you about what you would like to see enhanced in Yahoo! Mail. Phoebe: I do understand the purpose... to help narrow it down for emails from contacts but I think users should have a say in whether they want to use it or not Nikki: The best way to send us your input is by submitting a feedback form.
Phoebe: ok where do I do that? Nikki: Here's the URL: Nikki: http://feedback.mail.yahoo.com/betafeedb... Nikki: In the meantime, is there anything else that I can assist you with? Phoebe: nope thatd be all.
Phoebe: thanks Phoebe: bye bye Nikki: Allow me to give you a recap of our conversation. Nikki: Just to recap, the feature you requested was currently not available but I advice you to fill out the Feedback form in order to inform our Engineers about this.
This is a horrible ****** up feature. I got up this morning and 30 days of my email was missing. I about had a friggen heart attack.
After some searching I see a new feature called "Smart Views" has been added. WHY..... I did NOT ask for this. That's where all my "missing" 30 days of email was located.
The person who dreamed this crap up should be fired along with who ever approved it. I would move my email to another service but I'm not smart enough to do that. I am smart enough to know "Smart Views" is an oxymoron created by morons at Yahoo.
GET RID OF IT..... It sounds like ObamaCare. You take what we give you no matter what we've said in the past.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
