How can we improve New Mail?

← New Mail

Remove the ad from the bottom of the preview screen!

Please remove the bottom ad that blocks me from seeing my emails in the preview pane. That is the most annoying thing!

    I accept having ads. I have even accepted the flashing ads on the right. But now with the new ads on the bottom, there is hardly ANY space for the content in the email preview. Please remove this bottom pane of ads or at least reduce it to a one-line chyron type of banner.

    I very rarely post complaints or reviews about anything, but I logged in here to specifically beg you to PLEASE remove the banner ad from the bottom of my email. I understand that free services need to be ad supported and I don't mind the square ads on the right side of the screen, but the banner ad at the bottom takes up WAY too much space in the email preview pane. It seriously makes it hard to read emails. And, of course, last time I checked, reading my email is the whole point of logging in to my email.

    The space taken up by the new ad bar at the bottom has now rendered Yahoo Mail almost totally useless. If this isn't removed quickly, I'll be moving to a new mail provider. I understand the need to collect income from Yahoo Mail especially when people want free email. But, the window already contains plenty of advertising space. Intruding further on the space we need to use email efficiently is ludicrous, and will, I predict, be the final nail int he coffin of Yahoo Mail if it isn't addressed quickly.

    Thank you! I was just about to post this! It is super annoying on a widescreen display, because it considerably shortens the message view. What was wrong with having just one ad on the side? Or put it on top next to the search bar where it wont take up additional space! Seriously, who thought that was a good spot to annoy people?!?

    What is wrong with you people? My email is virtually unusable with this ad taking up the bottom of my email window. I'm not even here complaining about the ad to the far right of the window, which is also extremely annoying. But for now, get rid of that ad at the bottom. Otherwise I, like many others, will be breaking up with you and finding a new email provider.

    Stupid ads at the bottom that cover your mailbox. WTF would you fix something that wasn't broke! We have enough ads floating on the sides & among the emails. Now you block the bottom? This is the stupidest update! It is the same ads as on the sides. GET RID OF IT PLEASE

    Remove the new ad at the bottom of the email screen. There are already ads on the right side and embedded within the emails, putting another at the bottom and taking up the majority of the screen with ads is just greedy and obnoxious. Although I have had this email for over 20 years now, taking the time to swap to Google is looking better and better.

    The ad at the bottom makes it nearly impossible to read emails on my laptop. Please get rid of it,
    There is already an ad on the right. My experience with Yahoo has steadily degraded over the years. If this ad stays, then I will be done with Yahoo.

    REMOVE THE BOTTOM ADS FROM MY PREVIEW SCREEN!!! THIS IS ABOUT MY NEEDS NOT YOURS!!! IT IS DISRUPTIVE!! RIDICULOUS!!

  • sian northey commented  ·   ·  Report

    If I put the preview pane on the bottom, where I like it, I get a double dose of adverts – on the side as they've always been, but now also on the bottom where it covers almost all of the preview pane.

  • m c commented  ·   ·  Report

    There was barely enough room to read emails already between the bloated (and completely un-needed top banner bars), existing side ad, etc.

    Now the readable area of the screen is RIDICULOUSLY small - what is it like 30-40% now?!?!?!?

  • pwaters4 commented  ·   ·  Report

    CAN NOT read email with the bottom ad! I am researching what email to move to if anyone has suggestions. SOOOOOO annoying!

  • A Honeywood H commented  ·   ·  Report

    I can't preview my emails on a laptop at all because the ad blocks it! And even on a full monitor screen I can see less of my email.

  • John Drouillard commented  ·   ·  Report

    I get you have to run ads. But to run two different ads at the same time, on the right of my screen (which doesn't interfere with my viewing) and now on the bottom of the screen too (which blocks half of my emails and the majority of my reading pane) is just ridiculous!

    It is Yahoo being greedy for money from your advertisers instead of providing a good service.

    You think this will make people want to pay to upgrade their service with you but all it does is make people want to ditch your service.

    i do want to see the ads on the bottom of my screen

  • Vishal Nagpal commented  ·   ·  Report

    The ad at the bottom of the page barely leaves any space to read emails.
    After years of use I think I'll finally have to make a decision to move to an alternate email
