What if your computer is an older version and new mail does not work?
Like many comments, if you only have an older Windows 7 or 8 this new mail just does not work, I have been 14 years with Yahoo and I am very sad no one is listening and many will leave! Bring back a choice of a very basic mail. All the adverts just make it much too slow.

Need to be able to delete connected email addresses from "mailbox list"
Why can I add emails to my "mailbox list" but not delete them from this list? This went wonky and now emails to each account are being sent to all connected accounts and the recovery account!! What a time consuming mess.
You can remove a mailbox , by going to a laptop/desktop computer, click Settings-More Settings-Mailboxes, click the account whose mailbox you want deleted from the current list, then on the right menu that opens, scroll down and click ‘’Remove mailbox’’.

Allow option "NO images"
I'd like to turn OFF images all the time.
Image download eats up huge amounts of battery and interfere with my ability to do a quick scan of contents.
I prefer the old approach - turn on image PER EMAIL, as needed.
The option in Settings to turn OFF images (radio button) - doesn't work.
You can go to Settings-More Settings-Viewing email and scroll to the ‘’Show images in messages option’’ and select ‘’Ask before showing external images’’.

cannot manage my 264 disposable emails anymore
I cannot add or remove any of my existing and working disposable emails anymore.
Please return the old code or fix immediately this beta NEW Yahoo Desktop Mail, so plenty of bugs and without all the feautures of the old code.Once you create a base name, it’s locked into your account and cannot be edited or removed. If you’d like a different base name, you can create a new Yahoo Mail account and add 1 base name to it. More info here: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN28338.html

I read and delete emails on my phone using the app. When I look at the email on the computer, the emails are still unread and not deleted.Y?
Yahoo makes it very hard to use the email. When you are going through it on the phone using the Yahoo email app, reading and deleting it, there's no sync on the same email when you use the computer. It's a long chore to redo the same thing and read and delete emails a second time. Fix this problem!
Sometimes when a mailbox behaves like this it’s because of another program or app the account is being accessed from.
Syncing issues between the account and a mail app can cause emails to be moved around oddly. If you access the account through a mobile device or app, you may want to remove the account from the device and re-add it to resolve any syncing issues in the future.

Inline Gifs don't play
When copying a gif into an email, they don't move. However, previously sent emails using the old version of Yahoo mail, the gifs move and are fine when forwarded.
Allow copying of animated gifs.

Thank you for the feedback. When composing an email you can use the animated Gifs that are located next to the “Send” button.

Bithday is wrong
09/30/1981
For security reasons, it isn’t possible to update or change the date of birth listed on your Yahoo account, even if you entered it incorrectly when you first registered your account. You’ll need to open a new account if you’d like your account to reflect your accurate info.

please return my old correspondence
Recently I went into my mail and found out that all my old letters were deleted, the mail was completely empty, like new, I would like to know the reason
If an account is unused or dormant for 12 months, it is deactivated and its emails are deleted, more info here: help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN2018.html
If this does not apply to you, You can try doing a search or doing an email restore if the email was deleted in the past 7 days.
help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN2552.html
In case you are using a mail client such as Outlook or the Native mobile app, emails may be deleted by that third party client. We do recommend accessing your mail via yahoo.com or the Yahoo Mail app to avoid this issue.

Security
Your new Yahoo Mail is not secure. Whenever I hit Log Out, it does not completely log me out me, because whenever I go to Yahoo Mail again, it automatically signs me in even though I do not have that option checked. Also, revert back to the old Classic Mail design. More secured. More visually appealing. Why fix something that is not broken? This new one is flawed.
Thank you for sharing your opinion on New Mail with us. We continually strive to improve and upgrade our products to make them even more useful to our members. As we move our products forward, we must, unfortunately, retire support for older versions.
Regarding this issue, please clear your cookies cache and history. Check this article for more information: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/sln27197.html. After that, make sure that the “Remember me” option and the Autofill in your browser are not checked.
