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.

  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.

  1. Accidental bulk mail removal

    If you accidently fail to click on any email, yahoo mail calls it bulk mail removal. NO. IT IS SIMPLY A MISTAKE that I clicked on something but it didn't register. Sure there is a prompt asking if you want to remove all 3000 emails, but it is a TERRIBLE TERRIBLE idea. Human mind has multiple thoughts and it accidently clicks yes because for sure I was trying to remove 1 particular email not all 3000 in my mailbox. Just GET RID of it. I've already been bitten by it once.

    Add a separate bulk removal icon.

  5. deve simplificar com novos critérios segurança, pois criam dificuldades para o dono do e-mail 23 minutos para verificar e trocar uma senha?

    1- Deve ser criado facilidades para o dono da senha alterar a senha 23 minutos é muito
    2- Quanto mais dados e informações o dono do e-mail fornece mais problemas com o vazamento de dados e mais tempo.
    3- Todo o critério de segurança definido, contudo deve pensar que a população envelhece no Brasil somos 30% e ficar com critérios ou mesmo tendo que confiar em sistemas que guardem a senha pelo tamanho que exigem e um futuro sombrio para esses métodos.

  7. Go back to being able to Delete Unread ! Every time I try to delete how I used to it threatens to delete my entire inbox.

    Go back to how it used to be!! Now I have to click on every damned email individually to delete it, which I simply don't have time for so it builds up. then when you have a bunch to delete there's no way to corral them into a pile for the trash. WTH, Yahoo??? Why are you making my morning email such a pain **********? Go Back. Your improvements aren't improvements at ALL.

  10. signing into mail

    Can you please STOP! these deplorable sign-in's! I am sick and tired of these text codes, etc... Why can't you just leave things be. Every time I must sign-in, I must use a dumb code!

NO stupid "text-codes" just a regular sign-in. Also, what happens if my phone is not fuctioning? How can we sign-in? Therefore please STOP! these unwarranted codes! Plus, I get a pop-up page that…
