  1. Checkbox, Not Checked

    When trying to clean the inbox with "delete", I receive the popup message, "Checkbox, Not Checked". I don't want to open the mail. I don't want to see "Checkbox, Not Checked" every time I hover over a particular email. All I want to do is delete. Simple right? Easier said than done though with this new format. I don't like it one iota. Bring back the old version. This new garbage is very rude. Fire the person who created it.

  3. when using plain text formatting, preserve line ends and spaces/tabs of pasted text

    I am forced by certain email lists to send emails in plain text.

    If I compose my email text in some other application (e.g. a proper text editor) and paste it into a yahoo mail message that is formatted as plain text, I find that the pasted text is stripped of all line end sequences, tabs, and spaces.

    This is a BUG!

    Alternatively, if I have a rich text format email, paste in my text, it looks fine at that point, but if I then convert the message in yahoo mail to plain text format, it now preserves most stuff…

  6. Great new format, Love it! An option to change back would be nice, though.

    Love the new format. I see a lot of people hate it, but you did great work on it. The photo tab where you can see all of the photos that are attachments to emails in your inbox is an amazing feature! Now I don't have to go searching through my entire inbox for that one email with the photo I'm looking for. The only flaw is that this is a radical change, so having an option in settings to select the old format would be nice for those that liked it. Thank you for adding a dark theme as…

  11. CHANGE FROM YAHOO. WE are all unable to use it as we have for a Quarter of a Century due to the Sale to Controlling AOL

    ACCESS, WRITING AND VIEWING EMAILS, LONGER TIME TO LOGIN, MAIL NO LONGER WORKING (you click to read one, the line jumps up/down and it opens something else. You click the X to close it and it repmains as OPEN, slowing down the system) ABSOLUTE DISASTER NOW after being SOLD to AOL

  12. Remove info which appears with the Recipients E Address to click on for correspondence.

    PLEASE REMOVE the subject line or beginning sentence, which is included with My recipients E address upon previewing My incoming mail!
    Only MY Recipients E MAiL Address Is necessary! You ARE divulging too much of My private conversations.

  13. New Format Discriminates Against People with ADD

    the non-optional switch to the new email from the classic format poses a problem for people with ADD and is therefore discriminatory. The right hand column flashes ads at a rapid rate and is very distracting for people with attention deficit disorders. If you must show ads, do not show them changing rapidly or at least allow the option to control the speed. If yahoo will not fix this then perhaps pressure from the ADA (American with Disabilities Act) would be necessary. Also there is NO option to change to the basic format in settings even though the FAQs say…

  14. You should have a DOWN arrow for our opinion on this new ****** version of yahoo mail. It stinks worse than a pile of ****.

    Yahoo, I'm "Clapping back" at your for pushing this new version of yahoo mail on us. I hate it, it's miserable and useless. We want the good old reliable, easy to use old yahoo mail back. I've had my e-mail since 1996 but it seems that I'm going to be forced to go to Google and use g-mail instead, if you don't let us switch back.

  15. So godammn ******* slllllllooooooowwwwww.......

    Get rid of XML based based pages. XML downloads are huuuuuuggggeee, and the XML execution is slllllooooowwwwwww.

    Also, while you are at it, design it so Javascript is NOT required,
    and you can turn off Javascript in your browser and still use Mail.
