How can we improve New Yahoo Mail Basic?

← New Mail Basic

bring back classic mail

Please change back to the classic Yahoo Mail! There are certain features that I can't do on the current version that I could do in the old classic mail version, such as dragging an email to a folder. How am I now able to do that?! I am frequently dragging things to folders, and it is imperative that I have this feature re-instated.

    Why are you trying to force the new email platform by limiting the basic version? The new email platform is terrible. It's hard to find things, the layout is terrible, etc. What was the point of making such major changes???? Do your developers have nothing better to do?

    Whoever designed it should be fired! It takes multiple actions to do something the old mail did in one.

    Go back to the old mail.

    Go back to original classic, Back button to go back to where I actually was in my Inbox, more compact setting, ability to change font, allow more information in the limited real estate. This new version is terrible

    Recent changes have removed the 'back' arrow and the ability to 'continuously' scroll to older or newer emails by dragging the mouse down.
    Pagination is an old way to display multiple emails across various sorting.
    There are many people who valued the older design and it was a favorite of our handicapped community and elderly.
    Please give us a way to go back to the older interface OR add the return arrow, scroll ad if you can - add features from there.

    Yahoo, if you want to tinker with an "updated" look, fine, but leave the classic version alone, all you've done is make it more difficult to read, move, delete, search messages. drag n drop is basically useless now, this is by far the worst "update" you've ever done. If you truly want to get rid of the classic version, then stop offering it and tell everyone to eff-off.

    BRING BACK CLASSIC EMAIL. THIS NEW VERSION SUCKS! I WAN'T MY THEMES BACK

  • Molly Wheeler commented  ·   ·  Report

    Give me back my old version. I hate this new version, it's horrible!!!

  • Aymon Mahmoud commented  ·   ·  Report

    This "refreshed" update is horrendous. I miss my custom color themed layout. Emails never took so long and i believe the inbox auto-refreshed if not, (learn from Outlook). I now have to hit the refresh button. The performance is seriously lacking IMO.
    I can no longer right click and select an single email, instead i have to select an email and then select an action at the top center. which i personally hate. DONT FIX IT IF IT AINT BROKE.

    Put the old yahoo back and put the stationary back on it!! I had it just the way it was comfortable for me!! I dont like changes at my age!!

  • joseph selvaggio commented  ·   ·  Report

    Go back to the way it was, this is horrible. Need to have no pages, scrolling was much easier. Put the unread tab back because not being able to just switch is annoying. Make it so you can search a keyword in the docs attached in the email also so it is easier to find things I'm searching for. Sometimes I just get a doc and don't remember who it came from.

    When I go back to the old style (my preference) I can "slide up or down in the folder section," this makes it hard to save emails into a folder

  • Mark Crowley commented  ·   ·  Report

    Emails don't stay checked if you go into one and then you have to recheck them, Takes too much scrolling to get through all your emails. This version is terrible need to go back to the old version because it was much better.

    Go back to the original Basic look. This new "Basic Look", does not work for me

  • Barbara Kelso commented  ·   ·  Report

    Put it back to what it once was a month ago. I can't use either of these formats any longer with my eyesight.

  • Miguel Kings commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please go back to the old format. You're doing too much!!!

    Your new email design (Horrible) isn't your old email design
    Your basic email design (Similar but not at all the same) isnt your old email design.
    I've used one design on yahoo for years. (windows pc browser)
    I'll move my accounts to another provider if the same design I used yesterday and for years is not returned immediately.
    Change your design lose your users. Any questions?
