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. Have an option to make the "send from" drop-down visible by default on every reply message

    One of the reasons I continue to pay for Yahoo Mail Plus when there are so many free options available for email is the fact that YMP allows the use of multiple email aliases and filters, and I use them frequently. After the change to the new Yahoo Mail format, however, it is harder to send or reply to emails using these alternate email addresses because when I reply to a message that comes through an email re-router (like Craigslist), my reply automatically starts composing the reply from my MAIN EMAIL ADDRESS instead of the alternate address that was actually…

  2. Bold subject lines

    Currently the subject line and message preview are visually indistinguishable except for a tiny bullet separating the two, making the inbox a homogeneous mess to read. The subject line needs to be bolded so you can actually tell what it is.

  3. Login screen clutter

    When logging in you pick which account to use by clicking on the tile. Only, when you hover over the tile with the email address you want on it, first the delete tile button is too big. Why does it have a central location? It's in the way. Then, if you accidentally hover over your email address you get a black popup with your email address written on it again! And you can't click while it's there! What is the point of this?

    Instead, the delete options should be the trash can icon in the lower right in a circle…

  4. Give options to minimize ai presence

    I don't need AI and don't use it. I am capable of reading and forming my own thoughts without using it. I really hate this mail constantly trying to force me to interact with things I do not want to use. Please let me just use my email with less senseless cluttering.

  5. Restore and maintain the sophistication of the search feature by enabling searches with greater combinations of search criteria

    With previous versions of Yahoo Mail, it was possible to search for messages with a combination of more criteria than it is with the new version.

    For example, one could search the inbox and all folders or just the messages in one particular folder for messages which contain the name "Philadelphia" AND which have a subject that contains the name "Pennsylvania" AND which were sent in the year 2025 AND which have an attachment.

    I suggest that every new version of Yahoo Mail have a search feature which can do this: which is to say, that every new version have…

  7. WHY HIDE THE EMAIL ADDRESSES?

    you used to show all four of my email address and if I had unread emails in each, now I have to click on the bottom icon to show the four email addresses and even then, it's hit or miss if I can open one of them. PLEASE show all the email addresses all the time without making go through two steps to see what I have going on.

  8. Go back to wrapping text in calendar events

    If you are going to update the look of the Yahoo calendar, don't remove good aspects of the previous version.
    Please go back to wrapping text in calendar events as it did before. Text was easier to read. The text now gets cut off and is no longer easy to read. I can understand when you are just editing or adding an event with one long line of text. At least you used to be able to see the full text after saving.
    Thanks

  10. Display of email recipients

    I'm trying to type an email which is to multiple recipients, and when I click the "+more" to display them all, then click in the email to continue typing, all the "+more" email addresses disappear again back to "+more". How do I keep all the email addresses visible so I can see who the various people are that I am responding to?

    I just gone to the sent folder and picked on sent recipients to show their email addresses so I can take a screen capture and the text flyout box covers the top of the email and there doesn't…

  11. align messages again to ease deletion process

    On my desktop I used to be able to delete messages one after another without having to move my mouse. Now the first is deleted and the next click (without moving) no longer shows the trash can so instead it opens the next message . I don't like to select and delete all at once- I delete one at a time, while skimming/ reading emails in my inbox. Make sense?

  14. Options for larger text and adjusting contrast

    Hello! I don't mind the redesign for the most part. The two things I wish I had more control over were the default text size, especially when viewing my inbox, and how much contrast there is between the text and the background. The old customized backgrounds let me pick a background that made the text easier on my eyes. Both the light and dark mode options available are very harsh, especially for someone with a visual disability like me.

    I'd really like the option to adjust my text contrast and make the text in the inbox/navigation bars a little bit…

  15. More space to see entire email

    With the latest update, I can no longer see the whole email and have to move the slider back and forth just to read the lines in a message, which is very frustrating. Need more space to be able to read an email.

  17. Reduce headers and non-message space wasters

    I can rarely see a full image in email messages in the "improved" version of Yahoo mail. Why is there so much wasted space in the bizarrely wide borders around message content panels? Too much scrolling to accommodate this lazy and inconsiderate design choice.

    Do better, Yahoo.
