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
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! (Some of you are already seeing this new Setting, please let us know if you cannot)




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




Thank you! 💜

  1. Make new redesigns optional

    I don't understand who these redesigns are for? They always look worse than the previous version and are harder to use. Are you trying to keep busy to avoid getting laid off by AI? After making the "New and downgraded" inbox not ugly and hard to use, can you focus on adding new features or improving it for a few years instead of redesigning it constantly?

    I have used my yahoo email less and less in favor of google, which I created because you guys keep changing your freaking designs for the worse. I am considering swapping the last of…

  2. Multiple inboxes

    You need to show contents of multiple inboxes in one common screen. It's such a pain to scroll down and manually select which inbox to view. The inbox selector should also be on top of the list, not the bottom. Who needs this "streaks" function. It's email, stop trying to coordinate my life for me

  4. The Tab control

    The tab button does not TAB when writing now. It moves to the buttons. When typing a lot of us use the tab to space over when writing emails. This is annoying and causes us to send emails to early when typing.

  7. Put the block feature back

    What happened to the option to block a fraudulent address right from the more options drop down menu. That really needs to come back to block addresses before opening them just in case it a virus or some scam.

  8. Return some old features

    I like the old version better. I liked having the delete button at the top of the email when in the reading pane. But, I mostly miss being able to see all my accounts in one listing and monitor. I do not like having to switch back and forth to check each.

    Melhorar o novo yahoo é só voltando ao tema anterior, esse está muito confuso e nada agradável.

  11. Horrible layout and lack of user control

    Why cant I remove the right side panel? I don't need to see my starred mail or contacts until I need them. It takes up way too much screen space. Also the preview pane should allow me to remove the header for reply, etc. With it forced in place, it makes the preview window so small, I cant see the email I am previewing.

  12. we need archive button visible when message is open(like in bulk selection).

    when i open a message either in pane view, or message view, the archive option is in the three dots. takes me 2+ clicks to archive message no matter where i am. archive is the most basic of functions. as important as delete.

    btw, the archive button shows up as first icon in bulk selection mode.

  13. Desktop folders should also be able to be always visible.

    I tried following the tips and they didn't work. I want to be able to see my folders at all times. I sort new messages into them and seeing unread notifications on them is useful.

  15. Make it READABLE!!! Your new email is UNREADABLE and USELESS!!!

    The font on the left is too light.

    The bar at the bottom of the message is so large it obscures the entire message! WTF is wrong with you? To even read even part of the message, the page has to be reduced to a size that requires a magnifying glass to read.

    I can no longer open a message in a new tab so that I can view multiple messages at the same time. If I right click I get a dropdown menu instead and have to open one message at a time and then hit "back" to return…

  17. Bring back the list on the left where I could select the email account easily

    I could easily check any of the emails and folders because they were listed on the left all the time. I hate having to go to settings to access each time. Is that in those changes coming soon?

  18. Return it so I can see ALL my other email accounts on the same screen!

    Give options to users. One thing I really liked was seeing all my other email accounts on the same screen without having to constantly look for the little arrow on the bottom left, scroll to find the next email account, etc. Also the screen is big, I would rather have more options available to me to add to the screen then larger boxes, larger fonts, and ads.

  19. New Mail misses message grouping by time periods.

    The old Yahoo Mail automatically structured inbox views, folders, and search results into daily or periodic timeframes (such as day, week, month, or year) to help locate messages faster. I miss the feature in the new version.
