    Stop changing things and forcing us to use a "new" version that is slower than molasses and totally sucks. Do you not have enough work to do that you have to mess with stuff that worked just fine? Let us go back to the old format - let US make that decision for ourselves.

    seriously! You keep forcing this new format on us and we keep going back to the old one. What should that tell you?????

    Yahoo does not give a **** about their users. These nerds do not think like normal people. ***** Yahoo

    I have read today literally hundreds of complaints from Yahoo customers advising Yahoo
    that this new email format is inadequate and deficient at best. Now I am asking whoever
    is in charge of this situation at Yahoo to reply NOW to these complaints. Inform us of
    the present status of this mess NOW. This behavior is expected from ANY first class or
    second class corporation or organization. Inform us NOW of present status and what
    we can expect from Yahoo on this important issue!

    I want the old format back. Some reasons the new format needs work:
    -- the left side is constant width instead of variable which cuts the folder titles off
    -- with static left side, the sub-folders aren't indented enough
    -- the trashcan is on the right side: it was better just before the message next to the star
    -- folder names not bold to signify unread mail, instead there is a bubble I can't figure out since the bubble is not always bold for unread mail
    -- the spam folder does not show the number of unread emails
    -- etc.
    I have tried the new format several times. Each time, I go on a tangent into settings trying to adjust the look/function they way I like it, but each time I waste a couple hours I didn't have and switch back to answer emails.

    I will use the instructions below until they don't work (thanks originator!), then switch to a different service.

    I intensely dislike being forced to change something that worked well. The design of the page is poor by comparison to the old format, and although I have used yahoo since I started navigating the internet, I will be seriously thinking about whether I wish to consider keeping an account.

    The old classic format was so much better. Why do they force you to change. I am going to gmail.

  • A commented  ·   ·  Report

    I agree.

  • theresa bayne commented  ·   ·  Report

    I would like someone to give me my mail back... I tried to switch to basic and saw my mail briefly, but it was gone in an instant .... AGAIN

  • Babs commented  ·   ·  Report

    There is no earthly reason why Yahoo needs to keep changing the format/layout of the email service! Why can't you just stick with one and stay there!?!?!?

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    POSSIBLE WAY TO GET BACK CLASSIC try this, it DOES work for me
    PLEASE HELP ME AND KEEP COPYING AND PASTING MY INSTRUCTIONS HERE

    1) Open and log into sh*tty new Yahoo email if you aren't already
    2) Copy this text: https://mail.yahoo.com/neo/launch?action=mails
    3) Open a new Chrome browser window while keeping sh*tty one open
    4) Paste the text into new brower window
    5) Close sh*tty new yahoo browser window
    6) if it worked, BOOKMARK copied link in new window (this is important as it will become your goto-button everytime you log in to get back to Classic)
    7) Raise middle finger of victory and KEEP SENDING YAHOO YOUR SENTIMENT

    I do not like this new version - it sucks. And, I never selected the "install" or "upgrade now/next time" buttons either. I hate it... I want the old version back :((

  • Paul Hogan commented  ·   ·  Report

    Hope I can add to the many comments here saying that this new mail SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    We should at least be given the option to choose whether we want the new or to keep our old!!

  • Joe Hester commented  ·   ·  Report

    I dont like the fact you just changed it and I have no say. I will be using Gmail from now on
