New Mail Basic



Welcome to our Yahoo Basic Mail feedback forum! This is a place for you to help shape the new Yahoo Basic Mail experience. We review the most popular, feasible ideas from this forum to make positive changes to your Yahoo Mail.

Basic Mail provides base functionality like reading and writing messages, but does not include many of the advanced options. To use these features, we recommend upgrading to full-featured version of Yahoo Mail.

Here are some guidelines for using this forum:

  1. Please search and vote before posting! If your idea (or an idea very similar to yours) has already been posted, please vote for it. Duplicated ideas may be moved.
  2. This forum is for feedback and ideas only. Unfortunately, we cannot provide support here. For support, please visit our help site.
  3. Please do not post personal information (such as email addresses, phone numbers or names) on the forum.

The Yahoo product feedback forum requires a valid Yahoo ID and password. If you do not have a Yahoo ID or the password to your Yahoo ID, please sign-up for a new account.

If you have a valid Yahoo ID and password, follow these steps if you would like to remove your posts, comments, votes, and/or profile from the Yahoo product feedback forum.

  2. Increase the number of messages on a page to 50

    I get a lot of messages in a day so I like to sort them by sender to see what I want to read first.

  3. Auto Refresh Inbox

    When a new message comes in you put a notification on the inbox page. Why not dispense with the notification and just auto refresh the page either when something comes in or on a regular schedule such as every five minutes.

  8. Editing Contacts in Yahoo is the Worst Email experience I have ever had.

    I have been unable to CORRECTLY update my email contact list. I created ONE test email contact and now it appears in my contact list no less than 20 times. I uploaded a CVS contact list and now I cannot edit ANY of the contacts I uploaded nor can I add them to a contact list - which was the ENTIRE goal - to add them to a newly created contact list. I added photos for the uploaded contacts and the images don't stay. I switched back to the old mail to see if that helped and it did not.…

  9. STOP ENABLING SCAMMERS.

    I've been on the Internet for over 27 years and it's disgusting that a big company like Yahoo refuses to support the HONEST people who use it, like the people at Eudora did, several years ago. between all the **** you plague us with ad-wise I would think that you already make enough money without compromising the reason for the entire website - communicating seamlessly, AND scammer-free with others on the Internet?

    Why Eudora closed it's doors is beyond me, because it was 10 times the company AND email platform that Yahoo, or that piece of **** Google will ever…

  15. so not happy. Please stop updates without first explaining what these updates involve, I now can no longer see alot of emails that I need.

    What the heck? Stop deleting features and adding features. Need to allow users to pick from list of features that we want and the ones we don't want. this basic version still won't let me view all of my emails and they aren't in the spam folder. I know I did not authorize Yahoo to just delete the emails that you somehow picked. I want my **** emails to show up in my inbox again

  17. I need to know how to receive emails. I haven't received any except those from target since the 18th or 20th. I used to get 100+ per day.

    I need help resolving why I haven't received my usual 100+ emails a day. Since converting to the new signon, I have only received less than 5 per day and 2 out of 3 are from Target.

  19. Bulk Delete

    Bulk delete of mail is an option that NEEDS to be REMOVED.
    Caught once by this when message came up asking to about bulk when just one item was ticked. Message appears too frequently. Too dangerous and a needless option. Yahoo actually mass deleted my emails three times. It is very annoying. FIX THIS
