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! 💜

  2. Different colour rows between Read and Unread emails

    The new Yahoo! Mail theming has put every email under the same row colour (grey - dark theme), regardless of being read or unread. This makes it extremely difficult to distinguish what emails remain unread. Please revert this back as per the original format, otherwise I will be forced to look at other email providers as it is now very difficult to use.

  6. Too hard to read

    It is just a horrible screen. Not easy to read and that makes it easy to make mistakes when deleting emails etc. I would think you would have tried to improve not go backwards. Sorry but the old version was so much easier to read and work.

  7. Disctinction read and unread

    It is very difficult now to distinguish between the read and unread mail. Before, the difference was much clearer (unread being in bold). Now the difference is too small! Please revert to how it was before!

  8. Improve New Layout

    Emotional rant below. Actual design feedback summary here:
    1. Way too much blank space. We need a much more compact option.
    2. Way too many things I don't want taking up room. We need an option to turn off the right side bar and a way to hide or collapse all the default folders so we can actually see our own folders.
    3. Hiding the list of mailboxes in a drop down selector at the bottom of the screen is incredibly inconvenient. At minimum, please put that selector at the top. Or have an option we can turn on that…

  9. Search within folder

    Earlier it was possible to select 'inbox' or 'any folder' and search with 'from' or 'subject' etc. Now selecting folder itself is removed.
    Without 'folder' search option, search 'from' gives list of mails from all folders. When we go through these mails from 'inbox' folder, we are likely to delete mail that is listed here but was saved in other folder.

    when last time we migrated we had same issue. Subsequently this was resolved.

  11. Restore the Ability to BLOCK Spam Senders

    Restore the Ability to BLOCK Spam Senders

    Under the previous version of Email, one could select to Block Spam emails, before Deleting them. In New Email that Option is Gone! One as now Manually Update the Blocked Senders List.

    This morning I found 8 Emails in my Spam Folder. I could no longer to a Bulk Add to the Block Senders List. Instead, my only option is to Permanently Delete. The amount of Daily Spam is Increasing, so I really need the Ability to Block Spammers, as I can get as much as 20 Spams in a Day.

  12. STREAK - NO THANKS

    STOP offering me... streak... whatever that is. Besides it being annoying, it has NO meaning to or for me. It's just more useless BS that only complicates... and delays - whatever I'm doing - like going through my emails, reading & deleting... or putting into their respective categories. With regard to email - less is the best and more just makes you hate your email provider. FYI: I don't want to hate yahoo, so please don't fix what's not broken. Oh yeah, personally I'm never going to use the Yahoo Calendar, my iPhone handles that - and it stays the…

  14. expand view of subfolders from the sidebar

    Provide customization view of sidebar, same as previous version. The expanded view of subfolders from the sidebar is very helpful to know when an email has been received.

  15. Sorting mail

    The earlier design was better. It used to sort mails like: Today, Yesterday, This month, Last Month. That was awesome. You changed it. Didnt like the new design.
    Another thing, cant you give a skin which will fall in between dark and light? A skin with alternate light and semi-light rows will look attractive and it will be easy to sort out mails as well.
