    Bring back the old version. This new version sucks. I can't track my email responses easily because inbox and sent aren't synced in preview. Also, can we have the old conversations at the top?
    And, RETURN the option to drag and drop files. Having to browse for files is such a waste of time.

    The new version is terrible and FORCED on everyone without a chance to ease into it. I've been planning how to update all my email automation to send to my gmail account instead. Read all the comments -- NO ONE likes the new version!

    Leave the Basic Email alone! It looks awful. Put it back to what it was. Don't change just for the sake of it! Put it back to the way it was.

    Change it back. I want to be able to scroll down through all the emails not have to Go Over to the next page. I want the tab to select the stared emails. I cant block email senders anymore? Why change it??????Give us the option to change it and mess it up

    I do understand a bit about programming and i do understand that it might be difficult to fix problems embedded in the programming but rather than try and create a whole new set of poorly programmed software maybe it's time to find better programmers there's an old adage " don't fix what's not broken" and the old mail program was not broken all it needed was a tender little tender loving care

    Shittiest update ever, nothing works, NEXT MESSAGE arrows are disabled. maybe punch your coders directly in the face for making such a useless mail interface.

    Stop changing the mail. Whoever felt the new version was a good idea should be fired. Put it back to the way it was, or give users the option to use it or keep what we have been using for years. You even took that option away this time. Stop messing with all these stupid changes.

    Basic View removed the ability to click on the space between the check box the sender to easily mark an email as unread also (to easily add the blue dot). This was great functionality lost with the removal of Classic View (and not there in the new "Standard Version of Yahoo Mail" we are being forced to now either).

    Basic View also removed the Move button at the top of the Inbox that Classic View had. Forcing one to have to use the Actions pull down and then find the folder and then click apply. Much less convenient.

    The new view not showing the folder an email is in (not in the folder view NOR within the email itself) is a deal breaker for that version. And Basic View is seemingly intentionally dumbed down from Classic View to make it unusable as well.

    Basic also does not auto update the inbox like Classic did (and the new Standard View does). One has to refresh the whole page and gets (in Chrome) the Confirm Form Resubmission) pop up.

    Please bring back the Classic View as soon as possible.
