  1. A couple of important changes that will fix the new Yahoo Mail.

    Hello,

    I've been using the new Yahoo mail style for a while now, and actually I wanted to switch back to old mail style because of many problems in the new style, but I decide to stick around and give the new style a test run for a while...

    Here are the couple of key problems I believe are important and needs to be fixed first for the new style to become usable and appealing:

    First, most emails are designed with white back ground, inside the new Yahoo Mail style the white is replaced with the color 'rgb(153, 153, 0)…

  2. Please let us change the colours!!!

    I really hate the new design colours - it's all grey and I cannot have it bright and without the grey. Sorry, but it is very annoying.

  3. Fix the multitude of bugs in the software.

    It would be nice if setting my notifications to also be emailed to me that they would actually be emailed to my email.

  4. Comcast.net assured me my email could be kept.

    To forward the email that is no longer comcast.net you are trying to charge a monthly fee. Won't work.
    Shove it where the sun don't shine. Changed all my accounts and no longer need it.
    I thought Comcast was greedy and disingenuous but Yahoo takes it to a new level. No wonder the platform failed in the 2016.
    I had no idea Yahoo was still around. Not just ads but Monthly fees too? Up yours.You too Verison and Comcast.
    I see now Comcast/xfinity is now giving 5 year prices to get customers that they lost by lying about pricing. LOL

  10. I need to be able to view the raw message

    RAW Message Data View - I need it!
    How can I see why a message was marked SPAM if I can't see the raw message data? You took away the ... at the bottom of each message that offered that option.
    Switching back for now. Keep trying.

  11. Remove the "Starred and Contacts" box on the right side

    I generally use the "Right" message layout, where I select an email and I can view the message on the right. Now you have an additional box on the right which is taking away space from email view. Please have an option to remove the "Starred and Contacts" box on the right.

  12. give more control in settings

    The settings make the entire screen go either dark or all white. I want the email box to be white so I can read colored fonts, while darkening the rest of the screen (e.g., side panels) to reduce glare and eyestrain.
    Also, thumbnails no longer appear with links, and I can't control the size of images anymore. Bring those features back, too.

  19. DO NOT CHANGE EMAIL!!!!

    Look, everyone is going to super rounded, super-childish email platforms. It's yucky, and I tried yours, it's not good, Horrible experience. Please don't change yahoo mail. I've had my email address for 25 years. Please don't make me have to change it after all this time to something that has left their email alone from all this childish stuff.
