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.

*Those asking about going back to the old version. Unfortunately, if you do not see the "Go Back" button you cannot go back. We really hope you'll try the new experience! Thanks! 


WHAT'S NEW?
Reply/Forward Icons - You can see the arrow icons when you've replied or forwarded to a message.
Up/Down Arrow, Scrolls Now - In full message view, not preview pane.
Sender's Email Address - You don't have to open the email to see the sender's email address. Just hover over the sender's name from your Inbox. 
Search Results Will Show Folder - Now when you do a search, where the emails are located will show up.


COMING SOON!
Inbox Categories - Default to "All" category instead of always Priority.
AI Summaries - Ability to disable this under Settings.
Right Hand Column - Ability to minimize: Contacts, Starred, More (Currently Yahoo Mail Plus subscribers)


TIPS:
Drag and drop messages to folders - Just click and hold on an email message, then drag and drop that message into a different folder. 
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. 
Dark Mode - Go to Settings > Appearance.
Inbox Categories - You can go back to having just ONE Inbox. Go to Settings > Personalize Inbox.

  3. When will these badly needed upgrades be available?

    When will these badly needed upgrades be available? I and just about to discontinue using yahoo mail and going with another email service after all so many years. **** shame you haven't heeded warnings from customers before now. Maybe retaining customers is not a priority. We all know the all mighty dollar is.

  4. All Mail

    I can't stand the multiple tabs that you sort my mail into. I cannot wait until I can default it all to the Inbox.

  5. How do you sent mail to view "All" mail not "Priority" mail?

    How do you have "All" mail appear rather than "Priority"? I always want to see all my mail.

  6. Empty Trash and Spam folders more quickly and faster

    Why do we seem now to have to click on each email in both the Trash and Spam before we can empty the folders?
    Very recently, we only needed one or two clicks to empty them. Why the change?

    Is there now a much quicker way to empty?

  7. Show all accounts simultaneously

    New look is fine. But for those with multiple accounts, the old version showed all of those accounts simultaneously, with new messages popping up at a glance. The new version you have to manually click on the account to switch accounts and even see if there are new messages?! Come on yahoo, show us all mailboxes at a glance simultaneously.

  11. Auto Fill in Email

    I absolutely HATE the autofill feature when trying to write in the email when replying / forwarding emails. It totally replaces what I'm trying to write with completely nonsensical information.

  12. I should get to choose what I want to show up in my priority mail!

    This new system stinks. Numerous important DAILY things show up about twice a week, like my USPS DAILY email about what's coming in my mail. The way you categorize things is just stupid to me. What I think is a priority you might not think is. We should each get to decide what we want in our priority inbox. I'm just about ready to make gmail my primary account. This NEW yahoo is so frustrating!!!! I want my classic back!!

  14. New themes have no color contrast and I hate the lopsided waste of space in the righthand sidebar

    Literally the only thing I can find about the new Yahoo Mail that I like is the fact that it's possible to get rid of the stupid date dividers in the inbox. The themes are physically painful to look at.

    Everything is incredibly lopsided with the huge wasted space in the sidebar on the right side.

    There isn't enough contrast, and there's no sense of flow in the design with the level of minimalism and everything the same color. It makes it very difficult to actually focus on anything. The way that the emails go from light to dark when…

    Why do you have to scroll scroll scroll to the bottom of an email for the send button?! Send should always be at the top so you can hit it whenever you want!!!

  19. Only show subject line

    I like the new email except that I do not want any message preview when I am looking at my inbox. I want to see the full subject line and not the first line of the email. I have tried turning off message preview, but that doesn't do anything. I don't like how Yahoo mail shorten the subject and make me click on the message. I used to be able to delete unwanted emails without fulling opening them. Now some emails I have to open to see know if it is important. Please make an option to just see the…

  20. stop spam

    Why can't you stop this recent (past few months) onslaught of obvious spam? Multiple times a week identical spams come in bunches of 3 or 4. They always have a variety of random icons in the subject line and other places. On 6/13 I got 3 like this: ❉♚♞ Confirmation Needed: Your Omaha Steaks Reward ❉♚♞. It is SO OBVIOUS these are spam e-mails. I can't create a filter because the sender and subject are always different. In this day of AI, why can't you detect and block these OBVIOUS SPAM e-mails?
