New Mail Basic Beta



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.

  2. Your new email sucks. Let us switch back to the older and better email.

    Your new email sucks. The older email is easier to use. Why make these more complicated when you should be trying to make things more simpler. Have you ever heard about the word, "science"? In science, scientists always try to make scientific theories as simple as possible. Scientists are rewarded for simplifying scientific theories and ideas.

    When you reply to an email, and are looking at the incoming email, you FORCE US to click on a lick to see the email text. You are making Yahoo email more difficult by FORCING US TO CLICK ON A LINK to see the…

  6. Get the option for classic back ASAP. The new versions *suck* they are horrible.

    You are forcing everyone to "upgrade" to a new version of yahoo, all of which are horrible. Everyone wants "classic' back, at the VERY LEAST, make that option available again.

  9. Go back to the way it was.

    Under my account it lets me go to the old Yahoo email, but when I leave that and then come back, it has switched to the horrible, very user-unfriendly new yahoo you are forcing on us. How do I make it stay with the old Yahoo? Please let me know very soon before I change to a different email in desperation. I went through at least 7 pages of comments and no one liked your new version. So give us back the old version before we all switch to something else

  10. I hate the new email! Where is the option in "help" to change back? NOT THERE. Tired of switching back every time I log in. It is ****

    Yahoo can improve the email interface by putting the settings icon back where it was so I can switch back to the classic email permanently. The help page is incorrect. The icon is not available

  17. THE CONSENSUS SEEMS TO BE THE NEW VERSION IS BAD. HAVING TO SELECT "GO BACK TO OLD VERSION" IS A HASSLE.

    ALLOW USERS TO PERMANENTLY SELECT OLD VERSION INSTEAD OF HAVING TO SELECT IT EVERY TIME ONE OPENS EMAIL.
