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 feature to see what attachments an email has from inbox view

    In the old version, when an email had attachments, the paperclip or picture would appear (as now) to the right of the email in the inbox view. Mousing over that would show you what attachments the email had (without needing to open the attachment or the email), so if you needed to know which email from a client had the right attachment, it was easy to find at a glance.

    NOW, mousing over the paperclip causes the folder, the star, the delete button to appear and you CANNOT see what the attachments are like you could before--you NOW have to…

  4. Too much space between areas

    I cant find how to switch the dark - back to light in email. Also you have too much space between the email list and the actual email in the center - it is frustrating to read and use. You need to fix the formatting

  5. Move "Reply" and "Forward" to top of email reading screen

    Move the "Reply" and "Forward" buttons from the bottom of the email reading screen to the top with the other action items. With actions at the top and Reply & Forward at the bottom, too much screen real estate is used and you can only see a sliver of the message you are trying to read. Not all screens are large! Thanks!

  6. Put email accounts back at the top of the left panel

    I have multiple email ids that I use when I use Yahoo email. The old format used to list all my email accounts at the top of the left hand panel. Now they are at the bottom and you cannot see them unless you scroll down. Not user friendly.

  7. Sort email by the day's date, put options trash, file, etc and side bar options in bold

    Everything looks the same and is hard to findGroup emails by the date. Everything is difficult to find on the page. It all looks exactly the same. This is the worst update I have ever encountered to mail.

  8. width of inbox vs ads

    The inbox is too small (narrow) in comparison to width of adds column. Make it wider and ads sections more discreet.

  10. Please, can we have the settings icon at the top and showing again, or more easily accessible?

    It's really hard to find it now, especially since some of us love and use expanded folders (thanks for keeping that). for me, the most important things are settings, calendar, and contacts. those should all still be showing IMO. I don't need fantasy football but i need to be able to quickly access contacts and calendar. thanks!

  11. Make printing easier

    The old Yahoo mail included an icon to print. I have an email that I want to print in the new Yahoo mail, but there does not seem to be a way to print it. Sometimes the little dots show up and I can find a print option there, but now even that is not there. Also it should be possible to print the entire thread of emails as well as just individual emails within a thread. Upgrades should make everything easier. My experience is that it always get more difficult to do the things I want to do.

  13. Subject: Concern Regarding Inability to Block Spam Emails in New Yahoo Mail Version

    Subject: Concern Regarding Inability to Block Spam Emails in New Yahoo Mail Version

    Dear Yahoo Support,

    I am writing to express my frustration and concern regarding a feature that appears to be missing in the newer version of Yahoo Mail.

    Under the previous version of Yahoo Mail, I was able to block unwanted senders directly from my Spam folder. However, with the current version, that functionality no longer appears to be available. This has made managing persistent spam messages much more difficult and time-consuming.

    What I find particularly concerning is that I am paying for a Yahoo Mail subscription, yet…

  15. Inbox

    This inbox is confusing in terms of I don't know which emails that are selected when I want to delete a group of them at once. There should be a clearer difference in terms of what is selected and what isn't.

  16. close the tabs for individual emails when the emails are closed

    Please don't leave "tabs" open for each of the emails that I've open, read, and closed. It makes the desktop messy and then I have to go close them. They only close on their own if I delete the email, so it's really annoying to have to go clean up something that should be autocleaned.

  17. Yahoo mail is now USELESS to multitask

    The new yahoo mail is TERRIBLE I usually open multiple emails in new tabs to I can get more done but now its impossible.

    Right-click an email now and all it does it select it. WORTHLESS !!!!!

    I'm seriously considering switching to a new provider because this is unacceptable GARBAGE.
