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.

Bring back the "move" button
My idea is simple. Quit changing the format. Why is there no move button anymore? Now I have to scroll through a drop down menu to move an email to the proper folder. Which I have to do AFTER I scroll the entire page up to where the buttons are after looking at the mail. It use to be the body of the letter would scroll down and the buttons and the folders would stay in view instead of moving with the body of the mail. Who the heck thought that up?

broken Links
Dear To Whom It May Concern, 8/26/2026
I don't know how many times I have given feed back regarding broken links in my email. The broken links, the up / down arrows on the right side of one's emails almost 100% of the time do not show up unless fixed and then the next time I do through my emails, again then they are again missing!!!

I like the old email (free) system better.
The current system is not visually appealing, and navigating through it is cumbersome. Is there any way to restore the previous system? Please advise.

After 25 years, I'm done with Yahoo
The old mail was fine. It wasn't perfect, but it was usable. I tried the New Mail and I can't find half of my emails and folders, even when I search for them. So I try to go back to Old Mail, and all the features I enjoyed are gone and it's not just basic, it's VERY basic. It's awful, but there seems to be no relief from it unless I pay, but since I have no guarantee that the features I've come to rely on are actually going to be present once I pay, and since you clearly don't…
