    This "new" email has too much going on. How do i get back to the old format? Instead of sending an email it send it to draft. I never know if the email has actually been sent. Please give me back the old, plain and simple format.

  3. DRAFT FOLDERS

    WHEN i STOP TYPING AN EMAIL TO DO SOMETHING ELSE, WHEN I GO BACK INTO THE DRAFT FOLDER TO FINISH THE EMAIL, IT IS OFTEN NOT THERE AND I HAVE TO CLOSE DOWN MY EMAIL AND THEN REOPEN THE EMAIL SECTION AND THE EMAIL I HAD STARTED IS FINALLY THERE. I WOULD RECOMMEND THAT YAHOO FIX THESE ISSUES. I CAN SEE THAT MANY OF YOUR CUSTOMERS ARE HAVING ISSUES WITH THIS DRAFT FOLDER AND I USE IT OFTEN SO PLEASE PAY ATTENTION AND MAKE THIS "USER FRIENDLY" FOR THE CUSTOMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  4. Two Types of Drafts - temporary & Repetitive Use

    If we can have two types of drafts it would be very good -
    1) Retaining Draft - That can be used again and again - This way it would not take up much space
    2) Single use or temporary - that stays in the draft till we mail to the sender.
    Simple facilities will save lot of space and eliminates unwanted junk.

    Drafts are too slow showing up in draft list. After I think drafts have been lost and I spend lots of time recomposing them they eventually mysteriously appear. Now I have many drafts of the same name and have to try and figure out which one is the latest version.

  7. I lost all the images I was drafting and selecting the "Always accept in Spam folder "didn't restore them. Indiscriminate image blocking why

    Instead of indiscriminate image blocking is a sign of poverty in yahoo systems and processes that is obvious to the whole world. why not try discriminate image blocking.

  8. Draft review

    I am desperately missing one feature of Classic Mail in the new system. In the old system one could review attachments (pdf-files, Excel files etc, Scans) in the draft version in a final check before sending them out. The new system does not allow that anymore.
    That is very problematic. Do you plan to fix this?
    It was one of the reasons I kept using the classic version. As you are closing classic mail on Jan31,2019 this becomes urgent now.

  9. No preview window in the drafts folder

    When you click on a draft a preview window is created -- then the location of the draft moves -- so you can never double click on a draft and open it. You have to click on it... wait for it to move then double click on it. Either have a permanent preview window or none.

  10. Besides the new format stinking, says I have a draft until I click it

    It says I have a draft after I send an email and doesn't go away until I click on drafts only to see nothing is there.
    Spam doesn't show that I have spam, when I click on it there is spam to delete.
    This new version is buggy, the layout is terrible and people hate it yet you refuse to switch back and make everyone happy.
    Does this make any sense?

  12. auto save drafts

    What's the deal, are drafts auto-saving while I am writing? There used to be a time stamp of when the draft was saved as I wrote. I write really long emails and sometimes use drafts for journal entries to myself, and while it doesn't do this on my phone it did used to do it on my laptop before this stupid new design... there's no time stamp on my drafts anymore and nowhere to look for that setting in the settings menus, nothing under Writing Emails where it should be. I need drafts to auto save as I often am…

  14. Saving a draft is useless unless it saves the draft separately from the version you are working on.

    What is the good of saving something every few minutes if, at the very end, you hand moves and it deletes every single word except the one under the mouse, and control Z will not bring it back and the undo button does not work. What is the point of saving continuously, if it saves the fact that it just deleted an hours work?

  18. Why no Customised Stationary Options for Yahoo mail like canned response in Gmail?

    There should be an Option where user can save his/her own Draft as Stationary . Which can be used as and when required.
    Gmail has Canned Response .. why not any such option in Yahoo Mail?
