    E-mail Yahoo!'s customer support...Yahoo's anti-spam capablities are rather low. Is there a check mark for deleting the spam or reporting spam? PM me

    Look at the inbox before you open the message and check the ones you want marked as spam and then hit the spam button from that screen.

    You should be able to go in and manually put certain email addresses you don't want to receive from. If these emails are from the same address over and over you might want to do that.

    It has never happened to me and I have had my Yahoo account since 1996, or 1997. I always have the spam button.

    It should consistently work like that, allout, I recommend contacting Yahoo's support as stated above. This should help you with your e-mail spam issues. It's likely just a bug/glitch in Yahoo!'s e-mail service

    If the message is already in your spam folder, then you won't see any spam reporting link.
