Spam emails can be a nuisance. Here’s how you can report email as spam:

  1. In the left pane, select your Inbox (or another folder other than the Spam folder).

    Inbox controls
  2. Select the check box next to each message you want to designate as spam.
  3. In the right pane, click Spam.

This moves the message into your Spam folder and automatically notifies Yahoo! that the message is spam.
