How to Focus a Yahoo! Mail Folder on Messages from Your Connections

A lot of good mail and a little bit of spam makes it to your Yahoo Mail inbox; a whole lot of good mail and some really good mail — messages from your dearest contacts. 

If you connect to these people through Yahoo and its profile system, Yahoo! Mail can help you focus on their messages. Not only will new (and unread) emails from your connections appear on your Yahoo! Mail Welcome page, you can focus on their messages (unread as well as read) in any folder swiftly, too.
