How can we improve New Mail?

← New Mail

Where are the contacts?

Every time I try to access my contacts, the mail system opens a new window and takes me back to the old version of Yahoo. This is very annoying.

Also, something weird has been happening with my mail lists. I haven't changed a thing, but suddenly one of my longer list is missing about 30 addresses. I just tried to send out an email to one of my lists with about 10 people on it. Only 5 people actually received the email, despite me very carefully checking to see that I had clicked on the appropriate email list. Again, very annoying.

Please fix these problems ... or I will very shortly be forced to switch email providers.

    Also I voted in case it registers my dismay, along withother users, of Contacts query. But not at all sure what my vote counts for.

    Also - I hope the contacts haven't been incorrectly saved in the auto section. My aunty's name is shown inverse to usual

    Yes where are the Contacts? And finding answers on 'user forum' well ???

    I find the contact list in a pane on the right upper side below the task bar. When I click on it, it takes me back to the old Yahoo. Then when finished I have to check to go to the new one again. Also, the contact list will not print for me in either old or new now. Frustrating as I use it for a sign in sheet at meetings. Additionally.......when I delete a changed email address or one I entered incorrectly, it does not really delete. It does not show up on the contact list, but when I compose an email up pops all the bad emails and if I am not careful, it goes out wrong and comes back undeliverable. This is especially bad when people change their email. I don't remember off the top of my head which the new email is. Seems like if an email is deleted or changed, it should disappear completely, or at least not pop up when in compose.

    So WHERE is the answer on where contacts are? Everyone is asking the question, and I don't see an answer.

    I've left a message on this issue before and now can add a possible solution to where are my contacts------
    In the new version the contacts are in a small pane and most are missing if you you have more than about 8. Since the pane area is small you must click on one contact then using your arrow key scroll up and down and select the hidden ones you want by clicking the space bar. I think if the pane could be enlarged it would work like the OLD YAHOO MAIL which I still think is better.

    3 things re contacts: (1) selecting contacts from the new mail opens a new window to the old mail; annoying (2) when contacts are displayed in alphabetical order, they are correct in last name sequence, but same last name does not alphabetize correctly by first name (3) attempts to delete fields in contacts, e.g. old phone number, old address, etc. often does not erase them.

    Where are my contacts??? How do I find them? What happened with this new yahoo mail??

  • Azmar Nox commented  ·   ·  Report

    Looks like G-mail is now the way to go.
    Switching to the 'new' yahoo is like taking one giant step back to 1992 where I had to keep my contact list on a text file.

    Bye, yahoo.
    I stopped using your search function a decade ago.
    Now I'm going to switch over to google completely.

  • Sigrid Facey commented  ·   ·  Report

    Yes, I can't find the Contacts either. Can't send anything out. What's happening? This is absolutely stupid.

  • Nina Denton commented  ·   ·  Report

    Sometimes I get the message that I have "no contacts"; then next day they are there. What's up.?

  • Charles Ross commented  ·   ·  Report

    There is no "Contact" icon to use in order to add new contacts or edit existing. The problem has been ongoing for too long and I will be forced to use my Google account if it is not addressed very soon
