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.

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.

If you have a valid Yahoo ID and password, follow these steps if you would like to remove your posts, comments, votes, and/or profile from the Yahoo product feedback forum.

  3. Bug in window titles (accessibility issue)

    The window titles when you open a message in a new window are not correct. They show the inbox total instead of the subject of that email. This is not useful for people that cannot use tabs and require useful window titles (such as people who use screen readers)

  5. I can no longer copy and paste an image into an email. No thanks for that.

    What gives? I just tried to save an idea by copying and pasting an image into my email and it wouldn't paste. That's super disappointing and actually worthless. I don't understand why you had to go and mess around with a perfectly good system.

  6. There is a long list of demands from your users entirely unacknowledged.

    Your newsfeed can't be customized and the show less button is completely broken.
    You are known mostly for huge security breaches
    You just keep screwing with our inbox layouts instead of any portion of any functionality improvement any user has ever wanted.

    Please stop earning your reputation this way. You owe us for all the years of bad service.

  12. View raw message before opening message

    It would make sense to have the "View raw message" button on the Action drop-down list instead of in the message view only. If I don't trust a message I don't want to open it first, that would defeat the purpose.

  13. I didn't log into my email for over a year, and came back to my mailbox completely wiped. Is there any way to get it back?

    I created my email 16 years ago and had some really important and special emails on there. Does anyone know how I can restore them? Or are they gone forever?
