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.

  6. DELETE and SPAM buttons keep moving underneath my cursor...!

    The DELETE and SPAM buttons keep moving underneath my cursor
    because the middle window pane resizes whenever I delete an email and then I end up accidentally marking the next email as SPAM when trying to hit the delete button because it's now the Spam button (underneath my cursor)!

  7. Don't ever report a Yahoo ad no matter how offensive it is

    If you do, Yahoo will then make absolutely sure you see that ad every five seconds.

  12. Monetizing the Email Forwarding Function

    Why are you forcing me to pay a subscription just so I can forward my email to another address? This is a basic function in any email app and the new idea to monetize is should be re-considered.

  18. Yahoo staff need face consequences, working for human and drug traffickers, keeping victims of abuse silenced and isolated for more abuse.

    Yahoo staff along with FBI, judges, cops, doctors, Ashley Moody attorney general, church leaders, lawyers, doctors, nurses, med techs, etc, need face consequences, working for human and drug traffickers, keeping victims of abuse silenced and isolated for more abuse, all under the guise of being a service to society. Where are there people trying to stop such abuse? Why is there no representation to stop such abuse?

  20. System Failure

    Yahoo! Will be right back. Thank you for your patience. Our engineers are working quickly to resolve the issue.

    The above problem occurs way too frequently in comparison to my gmail account. Why can't you guys get your act together and provide us with reliable service. The same this happened sometime back when I was going ot have an inteview and needed to get the link to the meeting and couldn't access it. So eventually luckily called them and geot the link sent to gmail. My IT friends keep telling me to move to gmail as they are more reliable…
