How can we improve New Mail?

← New Mail

Yahoo mail is so slow

Yahoo mail is so so so slow on my computer. I've been using my college email address instead (gmail) because it works so much better. However, now that I am about to graduate I have been using my yahoo email more - but it's just so frustrating how glitchy and slow it is. I really do not want to have to get an entire new email address (I would definitely use gmail if I made a new one) but if this isn't fixed soon I'm not going to have a choice.

    My account is setup in English but when I mispell a workd and right click on it, the words in the window are spelled in Spanish, Fix that please.

    New format slows down my PC.
    I want to have the possibility to switch back to the old format, that is simpler and fast.
    Why every "improvement" leads to slowness and more intrusive advertising??

    Goodbye yahoo ... when you go out of business this is why

    When I'm trying to read an email in which the text is wider than the small box you've provided to view it in, I don't know how to see any text to the right of your border. I don't see a zoom button so I could zoom out and view all of the text. I don't see a scroll bar so that I could view the ends of the sentences. With this format, you've stolen my ability to view part of my messages.

    And the scroll keeps jumping backwards within the email AND within the Inbox list. Plus the mouse wheel doesn't work. And once you get down 4 or 5 days javascript keeps freezing everything every time you click on something and if you click again because the browser proclaims Not Responding, then it will open the wrong email AND open links within the email MULTIPLE times presumably based upon the clicks made while being told Not Responding.
    This is enough of an issue that I am ready to abandon my 15 year old Yahoo. account. SUXXXXXXX

    Bring back pages. Get rid of continuous scroll. It keeps freezing and opening the wrong email. Also Move to folders is faulty without the Action button after choosing a folder since it keeps stopping on the wrong folder when it freezes up (I guess because it is too busy trying to populate the ad space instead of continuing the action already in progress). This version SUCKS!!!! Pay for my new PC or return me to a version that works on my old machine. Thanks.

    Allow less secure login button does not work. How can I solve this issue?Constantly giving this message ''We are not able to log in right now. Please try again later'' Thanks..

    Mail crashed twice within 3 minutes after logging into new interface, when trying to read emails. Chromium on Linux. Ubuntu 18.04. Version 73.0.3683.75 (Official Build) Built on Ubuntu , running on Ubuntu 18.04 (64-bit). Not easy to report crashing or feedback through other mechanism on website.

    The new version of Yahoo Mail slows down the response time and performance of my Mac computer, and every now and again I get a message pop up in my Yahoo Mail window that says "Closing this window will improve the responsiveness of your Mac".

    The speed at which you type an email comes out on the page much slower than usual and you often hear the computer's fan's coming on, meaning it must be using a lot of energy just to use this version of Yahoo Mail.

    I want to switch back to Classic Yahoo Mail to stop all these issues.

    I am using the latest version of Mac Mojave OS10.14.3 in Safari. Perhaps Yahoo has only thought of Windows users when developing this new version of Yahoo mail?

    I am trying to write an email and while my cursor never leaves the document I keep being redirected involuntarily to some ad site. It is not simply annoying. It feels like a privacy violation.

    the new mail is painfully slow, go back to classic, I'm seriously considering switching service. I've tried to go back to classic per the instructions in the help file, but the option no longer exist

  • Dave Long commented  ·   ·  Report

    Yahoo Mail now takes twice as long to download. I've tried all of the ideas that I have found on forums, but none work. What is the problem?

  • maura Patterson commented  ·   ·  Report

    I absolutely detest your new format. Its slower than a snail and it doesn't even look good. Why did you change it? SWITCH BACK TO CLASSIC!

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    just take me back to the old format that worked!

  • Evan Wright commented  ·   ·  Report

    Can you PLEASE LET ME KEEP A DIFFERENT THEME THAN THE ********** MOUNTAIN VIEW!!! And everytime I do anything it reverts back to the supper dark theme and it won't save the change
