  2. Navigation after deleting a message

    Clicking an email open and deleting it, would've expected the navigation to return to the previous page (inbox items). Now it showed the next message right after deleting, might be confusing if the emails are the same title replies, since the user didn't navigate to the other message in the first place.

  3. Logging in MAIL dumps me in yahoo news.

    New email login puts me on yahoo news, then I must click on the mail icon. If I wanted yahoo news, I would go there. Please give us the option to go directly to mail when logging on.

    Please go to mail.yahoo.com from the desktop computer and sign in. This way you should see your Inbox and not the news.

  4. Missing icons in Inbox make it harder to navigate

    I hate that I can no longer click a search icon in the inbox to find all emails from that sender. The same goes for the missing trash icon as well. Managing email is now very cumbersome. It might be time to look for a better email provider.

    These icons are still available, you’ll have to hover over the emails and you will see the magnifying icon and the trash icon and you can click them.

    Make sure you access your Yahoo Mail by going to mail.yahoo.com and that you have the ‘’stay signed in’’ option checked on the sign in page. Also, keep in mind that if you clear your cache, cookies and history, you will need to sign in again.

  7. Basic to Full Featured Impossible

    Moving from "Basic" mode to "Full Featured" mode is near impossible. Takes a PhD. I can't figure it out.

  8. stop redirecting away from mail and telling me where to vote

    Whenever I try to change email accounts I get directed to a Yahoo page telling me where to vote. I've already voted (thank you) and I just want to read my email. It happens every time today. Way to go Yahoo, keep it up and I'll be forced to abandon you bunch of yahoos.

  12. Navigation Glitchy

    On the mobile app I am unable to go back 1, 2, 3, or 4 days to search for an email I need to respond to. The app keeps adding in emails while I am navigating. This causes me to get lost. Also you keep asking for my list of contacts. It will be a cold day in **** before I consent to do that. It is none of your business. I stay with yahoo because everyone knows this as my email. But I can just as easily go to gmail. Please stop.

    The Mail app syncs with our servers to retrieve new messages as they come in. It might help to search for the email using the Search bar at the top. This will keep the list from getting updated.

  14. unread right

    Like most of the changes but this one things keeps me going back to classic. The ability to right click and mark as read. Now it is 4 clicks. Maybe make the buttons at top configurable so I could mark unread without going into the...

    Best case bring back the right click.

    Thanks

    In New Mail, you can select an email and use SHIFT+K to mark it as read.

  15. delete

    Delete single email button.
    In the new format the delete single email button was moved to the far right. As you are looking at emails the eye is drawn to the left half of screen. That is where the sender info and beginning of subject is. When the delete button was on the left you eye and your cursor is in that area making it easier to click delete in that area. Now that it is on the far right your eye is looking left but to delete you have to navigate to the far right to delete a message.…

    If you want to delete groups of emails at once, check out our Tips and Tricks post:

    https://forums.yahoo.net/t5/Tips-and-tricks/Delete-all-emails-in-Yahoo-Mail-at-once/td-p/450154/jump-to/first-unread-message

    Keep in mind that the Spam and Trash folder empty themselves at random intervals throughout the week. To hold onto emails longer, it’s better to Archive them instead. Archived emails are never deleted unless you do so manually.

    Sometimes when emails reappear after being moved/deleted or suddenly move to the Trash, it’s due to syncing issues between the account and a mail app. If you access the account through a non-Yahoo app, you may want to remove the account from the device and re-add it to resolve any future syncing issues.

    Thank you!

  19. With multiple accounts, it doesn't return you back to the main Yahoo page when you log out like it used to.

    I'd like to just get back to the main page when I log out on the multiple account page.
