New Yahoo Mail


Welcome to the new Yahoo Mail Desktop experience! This is a place for you to help shape the redesign. We review the most popular, feasible ideas from this forum to make positive changes to your Yahoo Mail.


COME HERE FOR THE LATEST UPDATES.

*Those asking about going back to the old version. Unfortunately, if you do not see the "Go Back" button you cannot go back. We really hope you'll try the new experience! Thanks!


WHAT'S NEW:
Calendar - We moved it from under "More" on the right hand side to it's own icon. Still on the right hand side, but it's now the first icon next to Starred and Contacts.

TIPS:
Disable Inbox Categories (All, Primary, etc) - You can go back to having just ONE Inbox. Go to Settings > Inbox Categories.
Keep Folders Expanded - First expand left hand column by hovering on Inbox edge until you see Double Arrows. Then a drop down will show up next to Folders.
Bulk Delete - Click on a checkbox from your Inbox and a new checkbox will appear at the top. From there you can Select All and Delete All.
Sender's Email Address - You don't have to open the message to see the sender's email address. Just hover over the sender's name from your Inbox.
Sort By Sender - This is still a sorting option, but you must disable Conversation view under your Settings. Then you will see "Sender name"
Disable AI Summaries - Go to Settings > AI features > Toggle Off



COMING SOON!
Compact View - Small, Medium and Large views are coming soon!




**Please do NOT post about Account, Password, Login issues here. It will be deleted. Please go to help.yahoo.com.




Thank you! 💜

  1. Re-arranging accounts

    In the past, before you changed the platform, I was able to re-arrange my accounts on the left side menu. I can't do that in the Classic or New platform. I do not like the changes at all. I'm currently in the Classic because I hated the new Platform. But you still made some changes to the Classic. Why did you remove being able to rearrange accounts?

  2. Turn off infinite scrolling

    Or at least give me the option. I don't want to have to select one email at a time or hundreds if I want to delete multiple emails.

  3. Make the unsubscribe button on the emails smaller, or different location

    I keep hitting it when I just want to open or move an email, and I am on a laptop, not even a phone

  4. Accommodation for people with disabilities

    Many people use the basic / classic version because of disabilities. You've just ruined my entire day. There's too much white space with the version you've forced down my throat. I can't focus as well. This message: *Those asking about going back to the old version. Unfortunately, if you do not see the "Go Back" button you cannot go back. We really hope you'll try the new experience! Thanks!" is ridiculous since it means that some people are continuing to use the old version. How do people like me who need the old interface get it back?

  5. Sort by Sender Not Working

    The new sort feature "by sender" is almost completely useless. It doesn't sort all the messages by the sender. Also, if I highlight a message and then do a shift-hold and click on the end of a string of emails I want to delete, the selection tool does not work — it selects a random set of emails, not the ones I wanted to select. The previous version worked so much better. Ugh.

  6. Move Unread Folder up on the left side bar or give us the option to customize our side bar.

    Move Unread Folder up on the left side bar or give us the option to customize our side bar. I use the unread tab every day to see what's new and mark my emails as "read" quickly. With the new design, the Unread folder is now hidden under the three dots and requires an extra click every time I'd like to navigate to it. If for some reason it doesn't make sense to move the unread box up for everyone, then let us customize our own side bars or restore the option to revert back to Classic Mail. Thanks!

  7. Archive button should be in toolbar

    Earlier GUI had the Archive icon up front in toobar, which we tend to use a lot to archive many messages. Now it is one click away in a menu bar. What a bad idea to push a highly used feature down. Not sure if you are seeking feedback or looking at data before making such changes. i want to go back to the old GUI, but you dont give any option to do so.

  10. Folder pinning

    There needs to be a way to pin frequently used folders instead of burying them under a folder icon.

  11. Stop changing Yahoo Mail!

    It took me about 6 months to get used to yahoo mail when you changed it the last time. Now you've changed it again. I'm 66, I don't need it changed! Please give people an option to go back to the last way it was. It seems you only think about the young crowd, not the older people. Yes, I said older people. I've had yahoo mail since I first got a computer in 2000. Please give us an option instead of just changing it. Thanks!

  12. Show all mailboxes!

    Have no problem with new mail EXCEPT: have 4 mailboxes for 4 different reasons. Old mail let me see a list of all four and how many new messages were in each. NOW I have to click on each one to see what's new. WASTE OF TIME, allow all mailboxes to show

  14. Classic List View option

    Please add a classic list view , where all items in the inbox list view are SMALLER like the old classic way. Right now I cannot visually see my emails, Each email is too large and I can't even tell unopened emails, there are so hard to see the difference.

  17. Submitting a ticket does not work - link broken - please fix asap

    Trying to submit a ticket via three different browsers -- all of them refuse to send the message despite all fields being filled out. Please fix this issue because as it is no one can contact you for technical support. For a paid service, that is unacceptable.

  18. Distinct Separation of Days

    Could you please include a distinct indication of separate calendar days in the email feeds. With having the email sender and the email purpose towards the left of the screen, and the dates on the right of the screen, it can be an annoying eyeball bounce back and forth while trying to quickly scroll down to a specific saved email from a specific day (or period of days) ago. Daily named segment blocks would really help facilitate this! Thank you!

  20. **** new design

    Terrible update, all my mailboxes are now in the bottom and minimize, it's a pain ********** to scroll down to go to my other mail boxes. They were better before on top and easily accessible. Not sure who gave you this idea, they should be fired.
