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.

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. Make the main emial display more effective

    With the new mail - which I don't like - I can no longer read my emails without using the scroll bar at the bottom. It's much less efficient and clunky. I don't like the "bubbly" interface.

  2. Allow us to block more email addresses

    I want to be able to block spam email addresses or any email addresses I want. I understand that these people create a million different email addresses, but every little bit helps. Currently you guys only allow me to block up to 1000 email addresses. The last time I brought this up with you, someone went into my account and deleted like 10 email addresses from my blocked list, which didn't help the main issue. I want to see the block function when I am looking at email addresses in my inbox and when I am in my spam folder.…

  3. ADD AN AI CHAT!

    You need a better COMMUNCATION platform (AI CHAT?) for us to be able to ask questions beyond your brief Whats New list. Maybe you don't want to admit how little you have invested in Yahoo Mail?

  4. Not disability accessible

    The new look is too bright. I have an eye dystrophy and the new look means it is too bright and gives me a headache. The dark look is too dark, not only depressing by gives white writing which also affects my head aches. This is poorly designed for people who cannot cope with brightness and this page is awful for that also.

  7. Return Yahoo Mail original format.

    New Yahoo Mail is a garbage. Please return it to its original format or allow patrons that wish it to continue to enjoy it that way. You have tried to fix what wasn't broken and you broke it. IMHO. I am truly considering after 25+ years of loyalty to move to another email service as my primary one. I may only be one opinion but I'm sure I'm not alone in my dislike of the "New". Please remove this format, it's utter **** in almost every way you need to navigate around it!
    So, my idea, is an option for…

  8. Problem with Dark Mode

    Dark view does not show all of the text on some of my saved drafts.
    Had to go back to Light view to see the rest of the text.
    New Yahoo mail, what a fiasco!

  9. new mailbox - not happy

    I've had yahoo mail as my primary mail for at least 15 years. I use folders to organize email that I want to keep for an extended time. When I open my mail to 50 new messages, I could like to have less white space so i can select and move or delete without scrolling so much. hopefully that is what you mean by the compact view coming soon.
    Thank you

  11. Folder tree viewing...horizontal expansion missing

    Please restore the ability to expand the folder listing in a horizontal manner to allow the folder names to be fully readable as they were before. Please do not recommend the hover to view the text bubble to see the full folder names --> That is inferior and your product is degraded because of this feature removal.

  14. I like being able to "star" messages in the email list

    I like to be able to "star" messages in the email list. With the new redesign, you can only "star" a message when inside an email. Please change it so that we can "star" messages in the email list.

  15. when you have an email open and reload the tab, it should reopen the email and not simply go back to the inbox

    I had two emails open in different tabs. Both were things I needed to look at later. When I restarted my computer and reloaded the tabs, they didn't return to the emails I had open. Instead, it just went to my regular inbox. It is such a waste of time needing to dig through my emails, trying to find what I already had open.

  16. The password system used by Yahoo is terrible

    The sign-in to yahoo has gotten so complicated in requesting multiple devices, coupled with the fact that every time it requests a sign password it rejects the password entered requiring me to request a new password I am now telling everyone know to NOT USE YAHOO for e-mail.

  17. Give the user an option to turn off "Summarized by Yahoo Scout".

    Turning off AI features in settings does not turn off "Summarized by Yahoo Scout".
    Please fix this or add a setting to turn off Yahoo Scout Summaries separately.
    Thanx.
