  8. 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.

  10. Font choices

    This looks like gmail! I hate gmail's appearance - so difficult to read. That's why I loved yahoo! At least give me fonts that are bolder and easier to read.

  11. double click on name in address field

    In the previous version, I could double click on a name in address field to display the email address and allow copying. Now it doesn't allow that. It shows the persons address but there's not a way to copy & paste it.

  12. NEW EMAIL AND UNREAD IN DARK MODE HARD TO DIFFERENTIATE

    In the new version of Yahoo Mail, any read and unread messages in dark mode are so hard to differentiate. It was better in the older version.

  14. 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.

  16. 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?

  17. Bring Notepad back

    I use the notepad feature regularly and it has disappeared from my right side of my list of features. I understand this happens from time to time. Well please return it. It is a very important feature and is used a lot by me. Thank you.

    Hi Edwin, unfortunately we are EOLing Notepad, but not til August 15th. You should still be seeing Notepad on the right hand side, above the ad. Are you not seeing it anymore? Can you please send us a screenshot of what you're seeing to oasis.mail.feedback@yahooinc.com? Thank you!

  18. Conversation View

    Reading and responding to emails within a chain is almost entirely unusable. You don't need to include the entire chain of responses with every reply it makes is so confusing and unreadable.
