I too use it for business so this is very frustrating! This problem has been occurring for several months. I beg you as well, please fix it!!!

Mail Classic version. I hate this search b.s. too. I used to love Yahoo's ability to search ALL of your messages through all time, but recently when I search it only does the previous month OR it will time out after about 1 minute of trying then I can't login to Yahoo for about 5 minutes. What I think may have happened was that I used to have Yahoo Mail Plus! (costs $9.95/month) and it used to work fine. Maybe you have to pay to be able to search your emails... If that's true, I'm moving to G-mail... can anyone confirm? I’m still using Yahoo! Mail Classic version. I hate this search b.s. too.

I am searching for a specific message sent last year and cannot get anything beyond a month back. I just did a search for "and" which came up with results in the last month only. I have used Yahoo! mail since I started e-mailing and am now looking to other options. Extremely frustrated with the search function.

I'd love to hear a status on this...whether it's a bug, or if I need to shift 6 years of email to a new service.

I can only search messages that have been sent within the last 30 days! This is most despicable!! I'm really considering switching to Google, because I have over 2,000 messages in my inbox and when I run a search that should provide me with hundreds of results (like searching my name for example) I only get a handful of results. only 2 or 3. If I, a web designer and interactive programmer, can't get this thing to work, who will! I was once excited about this new yahoo mail app, but now that I can't search through my over 2000 messages this web application is WORTHLESS!!!! Yahoo Fix your client!!!

Narrowing the results doesn't launch a new search, but searches within what's already found, so that doesn't do me any good, either. How can I search for messages sent to me within the last 30 days?

How can I search for messages sent to me within the last 30 days?
