    Welp, I'll just start somewhere:

    The text itself for the inbox is small. The only settings = spacing. I don't need more space... I need a larger font. Don't give the "just zoom" because that doesn't work and seriously don't give the "go in the settings of your browser and increase font size." Why not the second one? Oh sure, lemme RUIN every website I go to just for this one thing... That is sarcasm.

    Next up: Themes -> If you're gonna offer this without customizable themes, then offer over 100,000 different themes. The amount is tiny to that point that you can objectively call it "fairly pathetic."

    That was simple, so next up: the trash button. Why is it on the far right side? The older yahoo mail, which you so pleasingly kicked me out of for no acceptable reason, had it to the left side. You can ALWAYS make an option in the settings.

    The Archive, Move, Spam and Delete buttons are centered...? What? Their use is right after you check the boxes, right? The boxes are to the far left, so they should be positioned right above it. Older email setup had this done flawlessly, so why are you messing this up now? Again, make it an option if you're afraid people hate it or something.

    If people are stupidly clicking the wrong buttons that you add distance, then don't bend over backwards to please them. Let them make their mistakes, learn from it and then shut up about it. If they nag about it, then just ignore it until they learn from their mistakes. They are being salty and seeking to blame someone else instead of saying "I made a mistake."

    I nag about how inefficient the setup is. My only mistake was making a yahoo email as a kid - before Gmail existed... then never properly changing to Gmail.

    This is the worst email interface I have ever used! I'm working on migrating to a new provider since this is so slow but in the mean time it's not even functional. It will show new messages in a folder and they don't show up, or it will show no new messages when there is new messages. PLEASE GO BACK TO THE OLD EMAIL

    Please bring back Classic or at least fix the filter feature, which WAS really one easy to use. What more feedback do you need, most people want Classic or easy-to-use Filters. Please fix!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Do a comparison side by side of the old vs new, you will find what is more pleasant to the eyes. Your new color scheme is NOT easy on the eyes. Allow more adjustments to the background

    HATE HATE HATE your new mail format. I want to go back to my original. Disgusted!

    I no longer get autofill on emails, and other like-named emails no longer come up, and as a business I need to copy more than one person on emails, and since I do not have them all memorized in my head, I am spending time and wasting money having to call people or look up on past documents. It also will not let me create a new folder. This new email is AWFUL. AND you are MAKING us change, not happy and although this business has had this YAHOO email for 20 years, I am going to have to reach out to ALL of our customers and switch to gmail

    The new format doesn't show the number of all new emails, it only counts the messages in the inbox. I have mail that is automatically filtered into different folders and the old format would count all those new emails in the total number. Now that number ignores new unread messages in different folders and I have to scroll and check each one and hope that I don't miss any new incoming messages that aren't in my inbox.

    hard for me to get use to a new format and was really ok with basic email. no need to fix something that is workin well for me.

    Might as well keep annoying you with "same" posts since you won't address the option to keep what's not broken. Keep the "classic" email!!

    Where did my trending news go? Why do I have to go all the way across the screen now to delete an email? Nope, dont like it and don't like you forced me into updating.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    Well I do not think the new format is at all helpful. Please go back to the older format.

  • Brian commented  ·   ·  Report

    Unlike the "old" mail, New Mail uses the Backspace key to delete the current/selected message. Please stop this! Backspace SHOULD NOT be used to delete! This has resulted in numerous e-mails being deleted. Please revert to the old behavior where backspace does not delete messages (or at least make it a user selectable option).

    I find myself squinting at the type.

    I hate how the idiot savants at Microsoft, Yahoo, Google, etc. are always changing things, usually arbitrarily. Half of the time that I spend on my mobile, computer, etc. is wasted and trying to fix and learn new things. The people who design these programs are idiot savants. They have a fantastic knowledge of computer programs, etc. but have no common sense where humans are concerned. Why don't you just create programs that are simple, effective and robust and stick with them?!!!!!!!

    Quit adding all the damned bells and whistles and always changing things up. Get something that works, that's easy to use and stick with it!

    The new format is very ******* the eyes. The colors are harsh as well as the back lighting, the contrast...all annoying...makes we want to spend a LOT less time in my yahoo mail. The old format worked, why the change?

  • Richard Vaughn commented  ·   ·  Report

    Change just to say you have made changes is not progress ------ The old format worked and looked just fine ==== Please bring it back or allow users to stay with it
    Tried changing settings and it is still ******* my eyes and the available settings only made it worse
    When you have something that your users are happy with and not complaining ----- leave it alone

  • Maureen Doyle commented  ·   ·  Report

    Want the old format back, constantly asked for updating, just annoying, leave it the way it was...
