Yahoo Mail Basic



Basic Mail provides base functionality like reading and writing messages, but does not include many of the advanced options. To use these features, we recommend upgrading to full-featured version of Yahoo Mail.

Tell us how we can improve your Yahoo Mail – Basic experience. The more specific your feedback, the more useful for us. While we can’t respond to every suggestion, we review regularly and take them very seriously. Our Guidelines have more on how you can give great feedback.

  1. What happened to endless scrolling of mails?

    I used to be able to go through my email by simply scrolling up/down with my mouse wheel. Now I get a single page of emails with << >> to go to next page. This is a waste of time. Since this was already the method of operating exactly what problem did it fix? In looking at a lot of the comments yahoo appears to be messing up mail big time. If you're looking for ways to improve the 'user experience' why don't you pay attention to the comments?

  8. Enlarge the print and check boxes and quit sending us back to inbox after deleting a message

    Your print is too small. Every time I delete a message that I have read I am sent to the inbox. Really frustrating. Delete button and other buttons are too hard to read and find. Take back to the way it used to be or give us the option to do so.

  11. If you would just go back to the old colors and letter styles, maybe the new version would be okay!

    If you would just go back to the old colors and letter style then the new version might be acceptable to us! The new colors are hard to pick up and tend to look like neon colors which takes longer to use. It all blends together.

  13. The new design stinks.

    The third time your coders decided to show off instead of improving mail. Quit trying to fix what ain't broke.

  14. Restore the original service immediately and fire the ******* who ****** this up.

    Restore the original service immediately! I have an email account for a website on Yahoo! finance that I can no longer get to because you people ****** this service up! If I am loosing business because of this *****, you will be facing a class action lawsuit shortly. Find the **** who ****** this up and fire them immediately before they put you out of business.
