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!

  1. Link Preview in Emails

    In new Yahoo Mail, "Automatically generate a preview of links" is not working. It should be fixed or just allow users to go back to old Yahoo Mail. Thank you.

  5. Photos In Body Of Email

    I have noticed that when inserting photos in the body of an email that there is no longer any way to remove them once inserted. There also is no longer a choice of making them large or small. These options were available in the old version of Yahoo Mail. Not having them any longer is very inconvenient. If a mistake is made when inserting a photo, I have to discard the draft and start all over again. Please add this feature back to the new Yahoo Mail. Thank you.

  6. PDF Attachment BUG

    When attaching a PDF to my newly composed email, previewing my PDF is poor quality and is a poor quality snapshot, which makes no sense because I can NOT select text from the PDF attachment. This USED to work! Not it does NOT!

    Please advise!

  9. Copy and Paste function - text stays the same as original

    When you copy and paste from 1 email to another, it reverts back to standard text, even if the original had font/color/size differences. You have to then configure back to the original each time.

  10. Dark mode has some issues

    When I'm writing an email, and I want to change font color, if I change it to 'white' while in dark mode, it becomes invisible when I switch to light mode. Perhaps there could be an 'automatic' color that is always white in dark mode and always black in light mode?

  11. I need to be able to see WHICH email I am sending in the TO section. Some contact names have multiple email addresses that have been used.

    Removing the visible email address in the To field impacts my ability to safely verify recipients.
    Please fix this defect ASAP!! It is only in the NEW version & now I can't go back to the basic original version any more. BOO!!

  12. Failure to send emails that do not show in Sent or Draft

    Several times lately I have seen email fail to send in both the app on my phone and on the website. The email looks like it is sent when I send it, but does not appear in Sent or Draft and the email is never received by the recipient.

  13. AI-powered Writing Assistance

    Is there an item on the product roadmap to integrate AI-powered writing assistance directly into the email compose window? This feature would allow users to proofread, refine, or reword their messages using AI before sending them to recipients.

  16. Email List button - fix

    I was switched over to the new yahoo mail and am finding that when I
    am sending email using an "email list" the button stating "email this list" is not loading
    the email address in the address line...
    The chatbot told me to type in the name of the list - which worked but why is this not working?
    This "new yahoo" has been out for a long time - I went back to the old system because I did not like
    many things about it and now I am finding this bug... besides the fact that the color selections…

  17. Fatal Error: Emailing from lists is not functional

    I've tried several times to email to a list saved in contacts (before the upgrade). What am I doing wrong?

    I open a new email. Select the list from contacts. (made sure the cursor was in TO field and click the Email this List button, but the TO field (or the CC or BCC fields do not get populated.

  18. Attaching a document repositions the screen to an unusable position

    When attaching a document to an email, after the selection popup closes, the entire window reformats such that 90% of the emails and menus are above the top of the screen and cannot be scrolled into view. only the very bottom of the email body window, the attach/send/save draft controls, and the very bottom of the folder tree is visible in the top 10% of the pane. It is not scrollable, so there is no way to bring it into view. The only fix is refreshing the tab and re-opening the draft email.

    Hi Lindsay, we tried replicating this issue and it worked fine for us. So our team had additional questions...

    Can you tell us what browser and browser version you're using?

    How many contacts are in your list, and whether this happens every time or only sometimes?

    Last, a screen recording showing the issue would be very helpful.

    Thanks!!

  20. Sending Videos

    When I send a video of mine from Vimeo- I always got a Thumbprint ID so I knew the video I was sending was correct. With the NEW email I don't get that Thumbprint confirmation. I always wonder if the correct video I'm sending IS correct? You might want to re-add that feature on the NEW email. Other than that aspect it's ok.
