  3. Poorly placed feedback button

    Overall, your product is good. However, your feedback button is very poorly placed and can be very frustrating. It inhibits crucial navigation on the bottom left side of the screen.

    Thank you for your feedback. We have moved the feedback tab, as you guys have been requesting. We still want your feedback though, so please note that you’ll now find the feedback link at the bottom of the settings dropdown.

    Thanks!

  4. Filters

    You used to be able to "filter" emails straight from the body of the email. Now there's not an option for that. Instead you have to open the settings, create a filter, going back and forth to the actual message to create the filter. Bring back the option of "filter emails like this" in the body of the email.

  7. Every time I switch between work and home computers, I get a time zone alert. Both computers are on the same time zone. Very annoying.

  9. Very poor font choice

    Very poor font choice.
    1. Does not support latin extended. Those characters are shown with a substitute font
    2. Difficult to read - the thin font
    3. The new messages are shown with thin characters and read ones with bold characters. I find this strange
    4. No control over fonts in themes and background.

  10. As in January, I am not able to edit my contact list and assign contacts to groups. Could you enable it and don't disable again? Thanks

  11. Move the undelete message

    I like the idea of the undelete, but must you place it directly over the delete button so I am forced to double click everytime I want to delete a messasge? Please move the little pop-up message over some so I can use it if necessary, but so it does not block the delete button.

  12. Block Feature

    In the last version, we were able to just click on the three dots and immediately block all message. Now we have to copy and paste and then go to another tab and block emails. Please fix this!!

  13. Add a contact from received message

    Bring back the capability to add a new contact directly from a received message! It is ridiculous that you have to copy the email address, exit the email message, open up your contact list, and add a new contact! Why did you ever take away this function?!? Please bring back the drop down menu for accessing contact details when simply hovering your mouse over an email address!

    Thank you for reaching out, this feature is now available. Right-click on the email from the list view and the last option on the dropdown is “Add Sender to Contacts”.

  14. Can't switch back to old format

    I tried to switch back using YOUR instructions, but the Settings popup window DOES NOT SHOW THIS OPTION. BRING BACK THE "Switch" option. You people are the WORST at customer experience.

  15. Fix Adding Contacts to Lists in Yahoo New Mail

    Expand Manage Contacts in Yahoo New Mail, to add the ability to add an existing contact to a previously established "List". This feature is available in Yahoo Classic but not in Yahoo New Mail.

  17. While deleting any email

    Hello Yahoo Team,

    The message e.g. "Message Deleted. Undo" after deleting the email from top bar is hiding the buttons for Move / Delete / Spam.

    Please check and adjust.

  18. deletion message

    The Deletion Message box location needs to be moved. It shows up right over the Archive, Move, Delete and Spam options making it almost impossible to just continue to delete (or w/e action you are trying to do) each email as it shows up. You have to either wait for the message to go away or click out of it and then select another option for the currently viewed email. Please move this to either the left/right hand side of the page so its not covering up anything.

    Hi there,

    The Sort by sender feature is available. However, to access it you must first disable conversations. To disable conversations, please see the following help article:
    https://help.yahoo.com/kb/new-mail-for-desktop/sln28055.html

    Once you have disabled conversations, you can click on “sort” at the top right of the message plane and select “sort by sender”.

    Thanks!

  20. remove auto-prompt email suggestions

    In the old mail, you could click an "x" to remove an auto-prompt email suggestion. In the new mail, there is no "x" next to an auto-prompted email so there is no way to remove suggestions. Please restore this feature!
