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.

I HATE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why did you remove the beautifully clear and simple way to block spam email??? What
idiot came up with this so-called improvement??? If you think it's going to force folks to
subscribe to plus, I think you are VERY wrong. Having used Yahoo for over 30 years,
you've now pushed right over the edge and am on my way out!!!

Libérer-moi de la double identification !
C'est insupportable qu'à la connexion je doive systématiquement entrer un code supplémentaire quand je n'ai jamais demandé ni choisi une connexion en double contrôle. Et quand je cherche à enlever cette emmerde il me soit proposé de me connecter en double !!!

Able to open different email accounts in different tabs at the same time
Up until this morning, I had my yahoo.com account open in one tab, and my rocketmail.com account open in a different tab at the same time. I use both accounts. One is personal, the other is business. For some reason, starting this morning, if I open the yahoo.com account in one tab, then open the rocketmail.com account in a new tab, the original tab flips to the rocketmail account. I don't want that. I want BOTH accounts open AT THE SAME TIME. Which used to be possible. So to me it is obvious that there is some kind of bug…

You can't "Trash" your Drafts any more
If I create a Draft that I then want to delete becasue I changed my mind - there is not "Trash" icon while creating a Draft when there used to be in the older version. Not efficient to have to close the draft, clikc on the check box next to it and THEN hit Delete

When you click on an email and then want to "X" the tab out to get back to your list - there is no "X"
When you bring up an email, there is no "X" next to the "Inbox" tab as there used to be, so that you can close that email and go back to the list.

Show new emails as soon as them arrive
So, I noticed that when a new email comes in , on the left folder view, I can see the highlighted "1" but in my view to the right of that, the new email isn't there. I have to actually click on the 1 in order to see the new email in the right side list. Not efficient, not an improvement.

Arrows are back BUT.....
Dear To Whom It May Concern, 2/11/2026
The arrows are back but now when I DELETE an email, the arrows disappear and I have to go back to the inbox to continue like before to click on one email at a time then back to the in box again. Kind of Tedious wouldn't you say?

The up& down arrows work for a time then was again no more
Dear To Whom It May Concern, 2/11/2026
I used the RESTORED arrows [ Thank you very much...:):):)] for maybe 20 minutes but then they disappeared again. I am wondering IF someone had either put a Virus in the program script or maybe added a small code to cause this to happen, it could be away to lead people away from YAHOO MAIL and to another. Just a thought

Up and down arrows are once again MISSING!
Dear To Whom It May Concern, 2/11/2026
Up & Down arrows are still missing...no Idea why. Initially AFTER reporting this problem, the arrows worked or a day or so then on the 3rd day I would get through maybe 1/2 or so of the emails (maybe 20-50 sometimes) then all of a sudden the arrows became MISSING again...now it is maybe a couple of weeks and I am back to the old routine of going back to the inbox each time for each message. The gets tedious!!!

Yahoo
Yahoo has removed the ability to change the background color in the old Email. I don't like the new email. Firstly it is ugly and doesn't serve my needs, another thing I don't like is having to check all the boxes when I want to delete my trash and spam folders, just hit the delete box like in the old Email, I put it in the trash for a reason, I don't need you to be ask if I want to empty the trash, if I put it in the trash then goodbye. I don't like the look of the…

Not being able to add photos to the body of the text
Why have you got rid of adding photos into the text of the email? It is so annoying that you have to have everything as an attachment which is an extra step all round. Plus you can't choose multiple files in one go to upload to your email you have to do each separately. This new version of the old Mail is really not user friendly. you have added more steps for so many functions. Can you go back to the old version please. the new one is not good.
