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.

Unfortunately, you cannot revert back. We are only making the new one better. We know change is frustrating and hard but we really hope you'll give the new layout a fair chance.



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.

Photos View - We added it to the sorting drop down in the top, right hand side of your Inbox. Click on that icon, and you'll see "More Filters" at the bottom, from there you can filter by Attachments and Photos in emails.

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
Unread Count - You can hover over "Inbox" to see the Unread count or you can expand the left hand column and Unread will be in the column below Inbox with the unread count. No hovering.



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

Unsubscribe Button in Subject Line - We are moving it out of the way!



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




Thank you! 💜

  1. Speed it up

    The new email is unacceptably slow. Especially deleting emails. There are so many errors. When in an email, and selecting to delete it, it takes about 1 minute to delete the email and return me to the inbox. It's been this way since the new Email launched a month ago or so. Unbearable. It's also super slow to exit an email. If I've double clicked into an email to open it, and want to go back to my inbox, that takes at least 30 seconds. Adding fancy features, and Yahoo made the most basic functionality almost unusable.

  2. Keyboard Shortcuts

    Allow pressing delete key to delete checked emails. This is always how I used to delete emails before. I know it's not a huge deal to have to click the trash icon, but I can work faster on my keyboard and this shortcut was nice.

  5. Turn back to old Yahoo

    The new yahoo email sucks! I cant delete old email without it popping up and then I have to scroll down to the previous/old email that I wanted deleted. Please permit old yahoo email to exist rather than this cumbersome new format. Angry!

  7. SPAM

    Dear Yahoo Mail Support and Abuse Team,

    I am writing to formally complain about the ongoing and excessive amount of sexually suggestive and offensive unsolicited emails being delivered to my Yahoo-managed email account.

    I have been a longtime email user, originally maintaining my email account through Cox Communications. I did not experience this level of offensive and unwanted email when Cox managed my email service. Since the transition of Cox email services to Yahoo following the changes in ownership involving Spectrum, I have experienced an ongoing problem that has become increasingly frustrating and unacceptable.

    Additional Information Regarding My Legacy Cox.net…

  8. You can improve New Yahoo Mail by replacing it with the CLASSIC EMAIL

    The pages are too long to use Delete All on the incoming box. It doesn't matter on spam. The new email take much longer to load. You can get rid of all the other useless function that have been added.

  9. AUTO BLOCK THE SENDER

    Why are there 2 options to restore mail to inbox "restore to inbox" and "not spam" (restores to inbox), How about you add "BLOCK SENDER" button instead so i dont have to go to settings -> blocking -> entering adresses manually

  11. Garbage ability to delete old mail

    It's horrible how bad the interface is now. Do I seriously need to click delete on each item? I really want the old interface back, no issues it just worked.

  14. Delete unwanted folders

    Why cant I delete a folder I no longer use? I don't need folders that say drafts, scheduled and archive so why cant I do something else with them? They take up too much space at the top.

  15. Disappearing Delete Button

    When you delete one email in your inbox and the next email shifts into its place, the delete button disappears. In the old (better) version of yahoo, I could keep my mouse in the same location and click multiple times to delete emails sequentially. Please fix this bug.

  16. Blocking spam senders

    The previous version of Yahoo Mail would have an option to block a particular spam sender. This mail did go to spam but after blocking certain senders, my spam folder would not be so long. PLEASE BRING BACK THAT OPTION.

  17. Critical Feedback: Broken Spam Management and Hidden Regressions in Free Accounts

    The current state of spam management in Yahoo Mail is completely broken, forcing free users into an incredibly tedious, manual workflow just to maintain a clean inbox.
    Previously, users could select multiple spam emails via checkmarks and block them instantly in bulk. Removing this feature forces users to open each email individually, copy the sender's address, paste it into a temporary composed email draft to group them, and then manually create individual filters. Because free accounts are strictly capped at 500 filters, this manual workaround is the only way to maximize space against a relentless wave of identical spam that…

  19. align messages again to ease deletion process

    On my desktop I used to be able to delete messages one after another without having to move my mouse. Now the first is deleted and the next click (without moving) no longer shows the trash can so instead it opens the next message . I don't like to select and delete all at once- I delete one at a time, while skimming/ reading emails in my inbox. Make sense?
