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.
Please try clearing cookies, cache, history, and footprints. To do so, please go to https://help.yahoo.com/kb/new-mail-for-desktop/sln27197.html
Also, please make sure to update your browser and if the problem still persists try to access Yahoo Mail in another browser.

get rid of the thread when I am just trying to make a quick response. and Speed up the new system, it is TERRIBLE!! Give us the old one back. Change is hard, but you have made it impossible. I'm going to be using my gmail account until you straighten this mess out.

I turned off the Preview generating button. It still shows Preview Images though I closed Mail and then reopened it. The SAVE button is gone. Email from Yahoo Mail said any choice made in Settings would take effect without a SAVE button. That is obviously not true.

Contacts function not working properly - I try to compose a group message from my contacts & it won't populate. I have to copy/paste each address! Are you jokers kidding me??? Also, your timeout feature with live chat sucks! I'm typing 15 seconds into a reply to live chat & the stupid system is trying to bounce me out. Like others here have voiced, IF IT AIN'T BROKE, DON'T FIX IT! Every time Yahoo decides to 'improve' something, they just ***** IT UP!!!

INITIALS AND SCREEN CLUTTER
Get rid of the initials in balls of colour - who needs this????The screen is occupied with not necessary graphics, surely your design team can do better than this. When writing an email there is little space left to see my text. Worse the graphics make everything SLOW. Please try harder to do something smart.

Please fix the bugs. The new format is slow and it is hard to navigate. The white background is very annoying. It is definitely not worth the higher cost! Please allow us to go back to the old format.

the new version of yahoo mail is junk that should be deleted immediately. It is incredibly slow and unresponsive to use, even on high spec equipment with fast internet connections. It is not in any way user friendly and the constant nagging pop ups that some 'genius' at yahoo decided would be a good idea, are enough to drive even the mildest mannered of us to acts of technological autodestruction!
why did you do it yahoo? it used to work fine, and now you've gone and broken it..........or did you simply not bother to actually test your latest *** before forcing it upon the poor unsuspecting user base?
Somehow, I don't think you even give a (Chose your own expletive) what we think though........

S-l-o-w performance
I've been using Yahoo Mail for a longtime. The performance has worsened. I use other email websites and the performance is so much better and especially faster. Speed it up please! -

New Mail is so slow it seems to be using dial up connection. You have closed the idea in "vote for an idea" but the problem still exists. Please fix this, or let us go back to classic mail, which actually worked. I have used Yahoo mail for almost 20 years, to be treated this way is terrible.

* Both spam & trash no longer tell me if there are any emails in it.
* An email from my calendar and from myself both say "me" in my inbox.
* The new email is slower than the Classic.
* You've messed Classic up so much, that people can't back now.
* The themes are nasty looking.
* The search field at the top of the email doesn't work as easily.
But, you probably won't lose but about 5% of your business. I guess that's tolerable. Right? And we're just your customers. No worries about keeping us happy. Right? -

STOP forcing me to use the basic version for an 'unsupported' browser
I've been bypassing the block fine until late-mid June 2019, but now UNLESS I use an user agent to go from chrome 51 to 67 or something it won't let me use the 'advanced' mail which WORKS PERFECTLY FINE with my browser.
The basic version works horribly and outlook works fine too, so why can't yahoo work when outlook is fine with my browser.

new version of yahoo mail is definitely not an upgrade, it's very big step backwards in user friendliness and ease of use. Layout is less logical than before, menus are little better than useless to navigate through to attempt to find any meaningful settings that can be changed to do something about the awful appearence of this enforced makeover. Lots of irritating pop ups to try to entice you to tinker in the most inane and superficial way with the pastel abomination that is the user interface while making it as difficult as possible to actually do anything meaningful! every aspect of the new version looks like it was designed to appeal to pre-school children and deter adults. And to cap it off it's also very slow and unresponsive. Makes me wonder if yahoo are trying to deter us from using the mail service and get us all to switch to their competitors so they can shut it down?
For heavens sake yahoo SORT YOURSELVES OUT!!!!!!
