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.

  1. You can make it better by going back to the original email format with all its options.

    Your new version of Yahoo Mail is really terrible. I have been with Yahoo for over 20 years and it has never been this bad. When you have a good thing, you always seem to ruin it by thinking it's better.

  4. Übersicht leidet

    Es ist fast unmöglich, die Speicherplatzbelegung in Yahoo mail zu finden. Nachdem Sie den Speicherplatz so deutlich gesenkt haben, ist das eine sehr lästige Erfahrung.

  5. Make permanent deletes easier

    I have a lot of mail. If I want to delete an emial permanently, I need to Delete, and then painstakingly find it in Deletes, and then Delete it again. Search didn't seem to work in Trash folder. It takes forever.

  12. Old Format

    Need option to revert back to the old format (prior to current basic mail format). I have used the setting to revert back, but only option is this new, difficult to use format.
    Unable to determine how to collapse folders (settings option much too ambiguous). Simplify and offer clear options for utilizing offered features.
    Request for help is only offered to paid subscription users. Make it available for everyone.

  18. DONT BE AN IDIOT!

    When i need to sign in to my email through a new OS, you ask for verification. But you make the email option inactive for click selection. What's your ********* point there?? I can't get a code through my alt emails? More Options get me nothing useful either. How idiotic can you make your system to be? And i need to sign in every page of yours while signed in till you can block my email???

  19. Verification nightmare!

    Can we PLEASE stop with this incessant verification shyt? I have to verify myself multiple times a month even tho I've check marked 'remember my computer.' I am the only one who uses this computer and I DON'T need to verify every 5 minutes (at least that's what it feels like).
