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. Open attachments

    I would prefer to open attachments sent to me without saving them first, let me open them first then allow me to decide if I want to download and save them or not.

  2. Monetizing the Email Forwarding Function

    Why are you forcing me to pay a subscription just so I can forward my email to another address? This is a basic function in any email app and the new idea to monetize is should be re-considered.

  3. It should be simple to add a photo (ex: for a business logo) on your signature by copy and pasting into signature box in settings.

    Copy any photo from your computer and paste into signature box for all outgoing signatures under settings. This seems like a simple idea, not sure why in the world Yahoo wouldnt offer this. To personalize your business, homeschool, etc..... Really makes me want to use Gmail instead.

  7. Please for the love of all things, go back to the font/format you used before!

    Yesterday as I went to check my email I was hoping it was just a bad dream and that today when I checked it, it would be back to normal I would be able to actually READ who the email was from, the subject AND the actual email but I was very disappointed to see that it's still the same ****! When you have a c looking like an o and a i looking like a l, that is about the dumbest font you can pick! Let US pick what font/size and all that for our inbox. I get that…

  8. Give me a setting which keeps embedded email addresses from being sent along when I forward

    When I forward an email I have received, I do not want to expose the email of anyone that sent it to me. If I choose 'edit', I can edit out the senders email, but when I do, all formatting, pictures etc are deleted in the process. This is not giving me the option I need.

  13. Fontstorlek

    Man måste kunna förstora fonterna, eller ska man zooma in sidorna- helt galet. Samt att"köra" inställningar hoppar bara till konto-uppgifter.

  17. Not able to move a message to sent folder from trash

    Not able to move a message to sent folder from trash. Lets say you accidentally delete a sent message and want to undo that, only able to move it to inbox, which isn't quite the same. The message list then no longer shows the recipient, it shows "me".

  20. Emails flip back to top of the list

    When I'm looking at my emails any action, reading then closing, deleting etc,, causes the list to flip back to the top of page one. Why is that? Why can't I just stay where I was when I read/deleted the mail? And why do there have to be pages? Does anyone at Yahoo read these comments? Where can I read the responses? Where can I read the reasons for the changes in format?
