  1. Stop forcing changes on how mail looks

    Seriously, I rejected your offers to change settings and the appearance of my yahoo mail because I didn't want it changed. Stop forcing changes on your customers. I cannot stand the new options. I hate them so much that I am seriously considering completely abandoning my yahoo mail account. Leave everything alone, and let people go back to previous settings if they prefer those.

  6. I relied on contact addresses/emails, now some moron techie gets the stupid idea that's no necessary.

    Did someone complain because of having a convenient list of contacts? I don't think so, you could delete those you didn't want. What techie came up with the elimination of contacts? It's plain stupid and almost moronic Since I have contact over 100 people/places now and then, how am I supposed to find them, go back into past emails? The list was like a directory, speaking of directory, now to get business we have to deal with the internet like Google, Bing, etc., where once all it took is open a yellow page directory and in a minute one would…

    You can access contacts by clicking on the icon on the upper right side (small icon made up of a rectangle with three small stacked squares). This will open Contacts in a new tab of your browser in the classic mail look. You can also access your contacts by clicking on To, CC or BCC when you are in the compose, forward or reply mode or via https://contacts.yahoo.com.

    Thank you!

    Hi there,

    Your feedback is key to helping us improve this new version of Mail. To that end, we have pinned the feedback card permanently to the bottom left corner of the window in order to get opinions from the widest possible audience. However we certainly do aim to remove it in the coming months.

    Please note that the feedback and browser card should not prevent you from accessing any of your folders. If any of your folders are covered by the card, you can scroll down on the left column (hover over your folder list and scroll).

    Thank you!

  10. Provide option to return to old formats used and add trash icon to each email line.

    Give me back my old format!
    I much preferred it, only got new one by accidentally clicking bottom of page which moved as I did so. I regret this very much as I cannot now go back.
    Would like trash icon next to star on each email line!

    Restore the calendar! With Old Mail, I would read my email and then post the events and appointments on my calendar. Now I have to type "calendar" in the address line to access my calendar. That is regressive, not progressive.

    You can access your calendar from the icon in the right column. It will then open in a new tab and allow you all functionality. If you cannot see the calendar icon, it may be due to your screen’s resolution. Please try scrolling to the extreme right of your screen.

    Thank you!

  12. It happened again!

    It happened again! I had 17 items in my 'trash' folder, but YaHoo! apparently decided to delete four of them, because I now only have 13 items in the folder. Why does YaHoo! have the authority to decide when I delete something from my 'trash' folder? Now I've lost data that I might have wanted to save in another folder (pending subsequent e-mails).

    By default, both the Trash and Spam folders empty monthly to keep your account tidy. The trash deletion frequency can’t be changed. We apologize for the inconvenience and recommend saving the info in a different folder if you may need it in the future.

    Where do I find my contacts now? And further, why do you keep messing with something that works with your new "BETTER IDEAS"?

    portfolio, to an incredible alternative. YOU

  18. TERRIBLE PRINTING

    What happened to the Print button under the "More". Now it prints all the junk on the left margin. The body of the text that I need is left off. DO NOT LIKE THIS FORMAT AT ALL AND I DIDN"T ASK FOR IT TO BE CHANGED!

    Hi there,

    We are investigating the CTRL +P issue – thank you for flagging this with us.
    In the meantime, please try to print using the print icon on the upper right of each email. Note that the print functions may be impaired if you are using a pop up blocker.

    This help page explains how to print in New Mail:
