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. Where is the filter to filter according to read/unread

    Where is the filter to filter according to read/unread - this is a necessity as emails go into the deleted box and that is the way one can find them.

  5. Readability Decline

    We need some kind of background other than blinding white or too dark. CHOOSE your picture or solid color ALWAYS worked and you took it away. I despise the "new look" stop changing things randomly. did you really get enough complaints about the backgrounds as they WERE to warrant changing it to far less choices? for extra personalization you could allow choose your text color,font,size, and adjust contrast your mailbox page.

  6. Unread and Read Mails View

    Dark Mode - Extremely difficult to differentiate between "New Unread Mails" and "Old Read Mails". Just the Bold Font for New Unread Mails is not an enough differentiator. Also, in Settings screen, there is no "Back" button to go back to mailbox view

  8. Przywróćcie wcześniejszy wygląd.

    Nie podoba mi się nowy interface. Przywróćcie wcześniejszy, do którego jestem przyzwyczajony. Unowocześnianie na siłę jest do dupy. Wierzę w karmę.

  9. NO TRASH DELETION AFTER 7 DAYS

    I WAS NOT NOTIFIED THAT MY TRASH WOULD AUTO DELETE AFTER 7 DAYS. THAT HAS NEVER BEEN A THING SINCE I FIRST SIGNED UP. NOW I'M LOOKING FOR SOMETHING I DELETED ON THE 10TH AND AM UNABLE TO FIND IT. THIS IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING.

  10. Allow the user to have the option to select which interface they want to use

    I have dyslexia and cannot use the new interface Yahoo Mail has impelemneted. I have been using Yahoo Mail for at least 20 years now and I can't use the new interface because of my dislyexia. Yahoo should allow its customers/users the option to use whichever interface they want. Please let me use the old version

  12. Restore prior capability within "Advanced search filters"

    Per https://help.yahoo.com/kb/new-yahoo-mail/overview-yahoo-mail-sln36709.html and my own testing, your New Email Advanced search filter no longer includes a "key word" search box, only To/From/Subject. Please restore the ability to find an email based solely on key word(s) within the body of the message. Omitting such a search method severely limits the ability to find Who-sent-that email content.

  14. GIVE PEOPLE AN OPTION!

    THIS IS HORRENDOUS! I have THREE inboxes.. now i can no longer see them all listed on the left and can no longer see EACH unread messages!!! I DO NOT want to have to do multiple steps just to see them! Why do you FORCE us to choose between a blindingly white or dark background? THANK you Yahoo - the push I needed to switch ALL my email to Google.

  16. NO OPTIONS ANYMORE!!

    YOU serve your customers and users! That is YOUR JOB!! YOu can't take away options we used to have and simply say, "You have NO choice anymore! This is the way it is now, so get used to it!" Whatever happened to OPTIONS??!! How about going to a restaurant and being FORCED to order something YOU DON'T LIKE? THAT is what you're doing!!

  18. Pane size

    Make all panes to include file, email list and ad panes sizable. Color scheme is not easy to read. Also, need more options to modify the screen views, to include size, colors, etc. Also, improve the sort features to include file size, etc.

  19. Stop making changes on my email

    It is beyond frustrating when you use your email all day every day, you should give people the option to not want to upgrade. Thia is my email account, and I should be able to have it set up the way I want.

  20. Bring back the ability to star messages in the email list without having to open the message

    The old mail had the ability to star a message that was in the email list without having to open the message. The new email requires the user to open the message to apply the star. In the morning I go through my inbox and star messages that need priority attention and now I can't do that without also opening the message.
