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! 💜

  2. Bring back the shortcut to "filter emails like this" on the mailbox view

    Please bring back the "filter emails like this" shortcut to the mailbox so that I don't have to navigate away from the mailbox view to create a rule, then play the copy and paste game to create the rule. So lame that you have made the mailbox less functional while calling it new. Please fix this.

  3. Advance search needs something

    The previous Yahoo Mail included searching in a folder in the Advance Search feature and this new mail does not. Big BUMMER!!! Will you please put it back?

  4. Bring back themes or color options for the mailbox view on a desktop browser

    Please bring back themes, or some option to select a different color pallet that dark or light. Both are too extreme and I need something more in the middle. Gray or the ability to choose my own colors would be much more helpful. This is the main reason I never switched to the new layout when I had the choice. I DO NOT appreciate being forced to use the new layout.

  6. what is the point

    what is the point in forcing a popup of a "QUESTION" about a challenge, thats yes or no, when clicking no STILL makes you do the challenge. then making us have to find where its at, and LEAVE it manually. whoever is making these updates and running this new site.... honestly needs to be fired. its 2026, we dont have time for ******** coding.

  7. provide a visible icon to adjust font size

    I have clicked on every "Setting" I can find,, and have "Googled" the internet and used your Help selection, but am unable to find a way to increase the font size in Yahoo Mail. I think you should provide a visible icon that is clearly directed to adjusting the font size.

  8. ALLOW A PLAINER VERSION - THE COLORS ARE NOT HELPFUL AND THINGS LOOK FUZZY

    IT IS A MISTAKE THAT YOU ARE NOT OFFERING USERS TO CHOOSE TO REVERT TO THE EARLIER VERSION. WHILE SOME IMPROVEMENTS MAY BE USEFUL, THE OVERALL LOOK OF THE YAHOO EMAIL IS COMPLETELY OFF PUTTING! THE COLORS AND OVERALL LOOK ARE NOT PLEASANT TO THE EYES--ESPECIALLY OLDER ADULTS. PLEASE ADD A PLAINER LOOKING VERSION SIMILAR TO THE PREVIOUS VERSIONS. THANK YOU

  11. PLEASE GO BACK!!!!

    This is actually the worst tech design I have seen in ages. How does this feel like a good idea for any user? Now I click (or try) to on my email and I have stupid pop ups hovering. Manage, unsubscribe.....PLEASE GO BACK. You don't have the following listed for no reason. Listen to your users. Most have gmail accounts as we need them for work but now it's time for us to all leave Yahoo and use the gmail for everything.

    Unfortunately, you cannot revert back. We are only making the new one better. We know change is frustrating…

  14. Make the new Yahoo Mail more compact

    Make the new Yahoo Mail more compact, the text is too large and too many graphics I cannot move, please let me have smaller fonts and hide the boxes on the right, started messages I don't need another box showing me that.

  15. where is the 'all messages' button now?

    It's so annoying that I can't click any "All Messages" button anymore, because the top message is always an ad. A POINTLESS, UNINTERESTING ad. I'm a 70 year old man. This was today's top message: 8 Reasons Women Over 60 Are Ditching Their Bras For This Front-Support Tank.

    It's enough to make me a Luddite.

  16. dump it, go back to the old

    this is the absolute worst you have produced in your history. impossible to tell read from unread, takes up far too much space, lags like crazy loading junk ads, brings back deleted messages from over 12 years ago, it is ugly

    there really is nothing to like. fire who ever designed this pos

  17. Show all emails when replying to all

    For some reason, after clicking replying all, it only displays the first email. The rest are under a "+" banner. I would like to be able to easily view all the email addresses at once. Also, I still want to switch back to the old Yahoo. Time isn't going to fix this one. People prefer the old format:

  18. I really miss the block sender bulk spam mail. I find it awful having to type each email address into the security and privacy setting.

    Just give us back that "tab" in spam to block chosen emails. I used to be able to check the box at the top and select all emails and then go to block addresses and they were immediately blocked and deleted. I see that I can block emails in my in box but not spam. I get way more spam in my spam box than I do my in box. This new yahoo mail isn't near as friendly! I'm very disappointed!

  20. You Are Only Making The New One Better???? No You Are Not!!!!

    What used to take me ten to fifteen minutes, now takes over 30 minutes to sort. How is that better? And the little tip you included in your last message to me was unsuccessful. Believe it or not, I had enough smarts to research and try on my own prior to sending you my first feedback with no luck. So it is not me, YAHOO. It is you. You could not leave well enough alone.
