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.

*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!



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! 💜

  1. This is ********.

    WTF do you have this stupid achievement stuff? Its just email, not the boy scouts. Just go back to the old system. This is like email for 5 year olds.
    The dark interface is hideous and hard to read. Whoever approved this is either blind or missing a chromosome.

  2. Allow new email notification settings by sender

    I want browser notifications turned on in windows but even with Yahoo set to notify for High-priority emails only, I get too many Yahoo notifications so I have to turn Yahoo notifications off.

    Please consider allowing the user to select or exclude senders form the high-priority list, or allow us to set notifications on or off for individual senders.

  3. What Changed?

    How do I move email to folders? The option has been removed. This makes this email account (and Yahoo) useless.

  4. Bring back the selected email groups (Space + click) delete ability!!!!!

    Deleting emails. It used to let me click on an email, scroll down and SHIFT+Click another email, jump over 1 or more emails (to keep them), click another email, scroll down and SHIFT+Click another email. I could then click on DELETE and it would delete the groups, and saved the ones I skipped.
    Now it randomly selects backwards or forwards and captures the ones I wanted to save and deletes them!!! Especially if you scroll down a few "pages". I'm trying to selectively save and delete my In-Box with 200+ emails! This is crazy!!!!

    Try it. Click on 3rd email,…

  5. Eliminate the "streak" feature and bring back CLASSIC VIEW

    Please in the name of all that is good in the world end this madness and give me back the Classic View!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This "streak" feaure is useless. NOBODY wants this junk. People actually want the Classic View. Don't believe me? Give people the options and watch the results. This new design could not be worse if you were trying kill productivity.

  6. Let us go back to the basic, paged view.

    Sticking adds in the middle of the list while scrolling is a terrible format.
    Scrolling forever is awful. I'd rather go through multiple pages so I at least have an idea of how much mail I have. I could also jump back several pages to skip a lot of messages to get to older ones. Now, scroll, short pause, scroll, short pause, scroll, repeat ad nauseum.

  7. Reply All missing from Yahoo Mail desktop

    Reply All has disappeared from New Yahoo Mail on desktop. This occurs in both Chrome and Safari on macOS. The message has multiple recipients/CC recipients, but only Reply and Forward are available. Reply All is also absent from the More (…) menu.

    The documented “A” keyboard shortcut for Reply All opens a normal Reply instead.

    Reply All works correctly for the same account/messages in the Yahoo Mail iPhone app.

    Browser cache has been cleared and the computer rebooted with no change.

  8. Let me disable streak pop-ups

    I tried to leave feedback before: https://yahoo.uservoice.com/forums/962180-new-yahoo-mail/suggestions/51689374-make-achievements-streaks-optional

    Streak pop-ups still occur even when I disable "get progress updates" under the "your streak" section of my profile. Let me turn it off! My e-mails are not a video game! My e-mails do not need FOMO!

  9. can we have an "Instant Block Option", Shown, on all "Inbox Notifications "? that we instantly do not wish to Receive ?

    I believe this would be a Quicker Way to get Rid of Pernicious & Regular Unwanted Senders that are Recognised by Me as a Recipient !! Rather than just to delete or show as Spam !! but that Keep Recuring !!

  10. Must improve "Block" feature

    Spam coming in are immune to either "Block" or "Delete all emails from this Sender" options.
    Repeated attempt to use either function does not work. The Spammers have seen to have
    a work around your system. Please, Advise? Thank you.

  12. PLEASE MOVE THE ATTACHMENT ICON AWAY FROM THE SEND BUTTON

    I'm sure the overwhelming majority of people use the send button way more often than the attachment icon. Tonight, I sent out two blank emails. I needed to attach a document, but I hit the send button instead. They are too close together. Somewhere at the top would be ideal, but at least at the end of the other icons.

    Much thanks!

  13. Please make a Bulk Email Delete Option for UnRead Messages in Yahoo Mail!

    Hi, I've had a Mail Yahoo account for almost 30 years, and I really enjoy your new Bulk Delete function. However, it would really Helpful if you please add a 10,000 Bulk email delete option for UnRead Messages only.
    I usually scan thru my messages daily but there are many that I will not open or read and it would be very nice if I could bulk delete 10,000 Unread messages at a time rather than having to delete them 25-100 at a time. I am Permanently Disabled due to DeQuervains in my wrists so My suggestion would be very…

    I can't reach any live agent. This is an urgent matter. The whole Yahoo Calendar is completely blank, just going to calendar.yahoo.com as I normally do. And ALL of my appointments, events, EVERY single thing is completely blank, like I never had anything on the calendar.
    Except I've used calendar.yahoo.com for decades, and I keep so many recurring events and appointments on there. For my day to day.
    It's all GONE. PLEASE help me, I have tried through Help, Chat, etc and I'm never taken to a live agent. PLEASE help with this

  15. Stop the ******* challenges

    I opted out of streaks, why am I getting pop-up's about back-to-school 'challenges'.

    This product is really turning into something unusable.

    I dislike Gmail, but this is quickly becoming worse.

  17. Make it faster

    Ever since I started using this NEW E-Mail, my e-mails are so so slow opening, deleting, everything. Its like you put a brake on the new area. I have used computers since the days of dial up and this reminds me of that. Any time I click on an e-mail, it takes a long time to open. When deleting mail, I used to be able to click the box to the left of the mail and as soon as I clicked it filled in. Now when I click, it may fill in, may not. It is so agravating!

  18. Yahoo email is not working properly.

    After receiving an email, I replied to the sender or forwarded it to a new one.
    After several repeated replies, I cannot forward the original email to a new one because the emails are combined.
    The Inbox and Sent folders only show the combined emails.
    Yahoo email causes a lot of trouble when replying to official emails.
    Please fix it.

  19. Bring back numbered pages! Do you not understand that "scroll-to-infinity" slows down peoples' devices?

    Bring back numbered pages. Get rid of scrolling through your inbox. I also don't need to preview my email, that also wastes RAM.

  20. Accommodation for people with disabilities

    Many people use the basic / classic version because of disabilities. You've just ruined my entire day. There's too much white space with the version you've forced down my throat. I can't focus as well. This message: *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!" is ridiculous since it means that some people are continuing to use the old version. How do people like me who need the old interface get it back?
