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.

  3. Autocomplete includes addresses not even close to address being entered

    Why in the name of the Houses of the Holy does the name I start NOT show in the address box but every other name that aren't close to being spelled the same do? Even temporarily switching, and even to do this is far too long a spell, to the "new" email and deleting all the names that do show and QUICKLY returning to the good email format keep this from happening. What ****** coding.

  5. It is staggering incompetence and arrogance on the part of Yahoo that I was just forced to change my PW without my requesting it. Grow up.

    It is staggering incompetence and arrogance on the part of Yahoo that I was just forced to change my PW without my requesting it. Grow up.

    Someone at Yahoo (Oath) needs to be fired for this kind of thing.

    I suspect the reason that Yahoo rejected my PW was because I was signed into the same account with a different browser from the same IP address. But at NO time did I request a PW change.

    This is not an "idea". This is a complaint about incompetence.

  10. Setting will not stick

    Who was the idiot who decided that setting how email is shown does not stick. I want unread emails to be shown as I don't check my email every 30 seconds. Do you even bother to read the feedback? Do you not even care your fool script kiddies are ruining what used to be a good email service.

  13. You think this new email is better?

    All my saved emails are gone. Disappeared. Ten plus years of saving things I felt were important, and Yahoo decides they no longer mean anything so off they go. But by god, I still get plenty of emails asking me to upgrade to Yahoo Plus. I hope a thousand Russian Wives find you. Thanks Verizon, your phone service is sub par and so is your website.

  19. Now there's a "GO" button that we have to click on after we make a selection..?? Whatever happened to "Double Click"..??

    Drop the "GO" button and go back to the old way. it's much simpler. Too many movements for one simple one.
