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. position of ads in the inbox

    Recently the second line of my inbox is an ad link. I find I click on many that I don't want to see because of the location. Can you move this to the top of the inbox please?

  3. provide an email account that allows users to easily read emails

    Due to the recent changes. It is super challenging to actually read emails. The adds occupy so much space that considerable scrolling is necessary to somewhat make out the full context. It seems as though I will have to pay to "maybe" gain the ability to read emails. I have been a loyal yahoo user for decades, however I will need to find a new platform if yahoo remains no longer user friendly. Additionally, the phone and laptop access rarely sync, so I often find a need to double delete or organize mail. If yahoo plans to stick around, I…

  4. give the capability of adding photos inserted into the body of the email to either large or small - as it was before!!!!!!!

    In the previous mail version, you could insert photos into the body of an email and choose to make it smaller. In this new version, there is no option! Please fix as soon as possible.

  6. Opt out of 'streak' feature

    I am tired of getting these pop-ups in the form of streaks or acheivements... for checking my emails. I have to do this every day for work but I seriously detest streaks and the psychology around them. I would greatly appreciate a way to simply turn these off. These kinds of features always rub me the wrong way, and often make me not want to use the program all together. Please just allow us that care enough about it not existing, to turn it off.

  8. I don't like auto-enrollment in "challenges"

    I don't want challenges. I want email. I want a clean inbox to read my email. I'm tired of distractions and gamifications. Just give me email with an appropriate amount of ads to pay for hosting

  10. Two things immediately come to mind

    1) move the trash can (delete) back to the right like it used to be when viewing individual e-mails - closer to the up and down arrows, where it was more immediately available for right-handed people (the vast majority). Have no idea why it was repositioned to the left.
    2) I really miss the grouping of e-mails by day, which made it much easier to re-visit them, if need be.

  13. Add filters

    I I would like to request a feature that allows users to create custom filters for automatically routing incoming emails into specific Inbox Categories, rather than relying solely on automated sorting. Currently, it is difficult to organize my inbox effectively because I cannot manually define rules for these categories.

  14. Option to turn off streaks and games

    The need to click and close pop-ups related to streaks and game for kids is distracting and a waste of time. In settings there is no way to turn off and opt out of these annoyances. Adding an option for that would be appreciated. Thanks!

  18. "Keep Folders Expanded" has incorrect instructions

    "hovering on Inbox edge until you see Double Arrows." The only thing that happens when I hover over the inbox is that it states how many unread messages that I have.

  19. Bigger message viewing window.

    The viewing window is so small now, I cannot even see across the message, and have to scroll sideways. Lots of wasted space on the right side of the page.

  20. Return the side-by-side attachments view in mail! It was your best feature and the main reason I've been using your service for years

    I would seriously like to have a chat with your UX designer, this update is ridiculous. I don't mind new polished UI, but can I at least have an option to toggle if I want to have a convenient side-by-side view of my attachments??? Bring it back, or I'll have to switch to another mail client.
