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.

  3. Please do not post personal information (such as email addresses, phone numbers or names) on the forum.

  2. 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.

  8. 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?

  10. 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…

  12. Open attachments

    I would prefer to open attachments sent to me without saving them first, let me open them first then allow me to decide if I want to download and save them or not.

  14. Why do I keep getting a 60 minutes delay to logging into my email from my laptop

    I keep getting a 60 minute delay (lockout) from my laptop. If it's a security issue identified, provide an option for 2-factor authentication. I can log in at the same time from my other laptop or phone

    HangDims, don't know about you being a real loser, but I have been voting Republican for 60 years. Are you sure that you can actually read my comment? I don't have a clue what prompted that response from you. Mental aid might help you.

    His comment was acceptable to you even with his…

  16. Captcha und Login zur Zeit nicht möglich

    Neulich bekomme ich immer wieder ein Captcha Popup, beziehungsweise dass das Login zur Zeit nicht möglich ist.
    Das ist schlecht, denn ich möchte schon zuverlässigen Zugriff auf mein Postfach.
    Bitte um Kurzinfo, woran das liegen könnte.

  17. Go Back

    This new basic is awful...you switched me to the new email WITHOUT ME MAKING THE CHANGE! It is really bad - horrible use of screen space. So...I went back to "basic" which is a far cry from the old "basic" I now have no link insert, no emojis, no formatting and no settings icon. Just the worst...if it doesn't revert soon I'll go to gmail despite the hassle to change
