I contacted Yahoo customer care and I keep getting told that Yahoo engineers are aware of this issue and are working on it....I certainly hope it gets resolved soon!

I can no longer search for emails by using a simple keyword search - NOTHING turns up. I've emailed customer care several times and have gotten zip in terms of answers. Sorry Yahoo, but I'm leaving for Gmail. I agree with many of the recent posts about searching, especially jombojones.

It just plain doesn't work consistently. I have the same issue as jombojones and Rebecca. The search can't find the email where I clicked on the sender's email. I don't have this problem with gmail. Poor form Yahoo!! This search functionality is bunk! It just plain doesn’t work consistently. I have the same issue as jombojones and Rebecca.

However, recently it appears to have been playing up on me. Searches for simple key words like 'David', that appear in lots of messages, or using the from:sender type syntax, have been consistently returning very minimal results, if not any. I've experienced the issue in FF2.0 and IE7 from multiple locations. Any thoughts? I’ve found Yahoo mail’s search feature the best of any mail client I’ve used in the past.
