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



COMING SOON!
Compact View - Small, Medium and Large views are coming soon!

  2. Tab to body of email

    This was my complaint in your previous so called updates. When you move from the Subject line to the body of the email you cannot tab within the email. Tabbing takes through all the options which makes absolutely no sense.

  3. Ability to forward a message so that it still looks like the original

    Not sure WTF happened, but when using a browser, my messages forwarded become plain text and lose all images and links etc. and show only text and no pictures. WHY THE F*CK is it like this now . . . BUT IT'S NORMAL WHEN USING THE PHONE APP!?!?! It's almost like HTML is enabled for the app but CAN'T BE ENABLED when using a browser. WHY?!?!?

  4. Let me see all my boxes at the top again

    Another benign update designed to just direct our focus to advertising, and push us towards paying for premium.

    OK, anyway, I need to see all 3 of my boxes simultaneously at the top left again for monitoring, rather than buried under a toggle at the bottom.
    Thanks.

  8. Attachment Preview

    On the old version when I previewed the attachment it would show up on the right side of the screen now it takes the entire screen.
    When returning an email, I need to be able to compare what is in the email in comparison to the attachment I am sending back. Please fix it will not let me go back to the old version.

  9. I want back my mountain picture background 😥😥😥😥

    I tried the new experience.

    Please consider adding an option for reverting to the old design, or at least get the background back. I had a nice picture of a mountain which was pleasing to look at and everything had clean sharp edged.
    Now its generic, pitch black gmail clone slop, where half the screen cant even be clicked and is just waisted space

  11. Feedback on the New Yahoo Mail Interface

    The new interface is less practical than the previous one in several ways.

    First, the email side panel is too large and takes up valuable screen space. I would prefer a wider email list displaying the full subject line and a short message preview, allowing me to see more emails at once and navigate my inbox more easily.

    Second, switching between email accounts has become less convenient. Previously, my email addresses were displayed at the top of the left-hand menu, making them easy to access. Now they are at the bottom, and not all accounts are visible.

    Judging by comments…

  13. Restore the Old PDF Attachment Preview in Yahoo Mail

    Previously, PDF attachments in Yahoo Mail displayed a red PDF icon. When I clicked Preview, the PDF opened in a panel on the right side of my email, allowing me to see both the email and the PDF.

    Now, attachments display a gray PDF icon with an eye and download button. Clicking the eye opens a large viewer that covers most of my email.

    I strongly prefer the previous preview format. Please restore the old PDF preview or provide an option in Settings to use it.

    Thank you.

  14. Fix the bugs in the new email

    The new design has bugs!!! one right here in this text box I am typing this into - it cuts off the tops of the letters. I immediately noticed a bug on the email main screen - in box says 1 message unread when all of the messages have been read. I really wish I had the old version back, it worked much better and was more lightweight and faster.

  17. Create Filters Easily from Inbox

    Before this awful "new Yahoo mail", it was easy to create filters from the inbox. Now you have to go into settings and type in a million fields to create one. Please bring back the method to create a filter from an email in the inbox.

  19. multiple email accounts displayed on the top left hand side

    I have multiple emails and it was so easy before to be able to toggle back and forth. Now it is a process to switch every time. Please make this easier- like the way it used to be!!

  20. Show accounts on the side and all folders....

    Or even better would be if we revert back to the old UI instead of this obnoxious new interface that hides half the features under dropdowns. I do not even see what "new" mail added besides the dumb little icons for senders and longer load times on emails.

    Huge miss from Yahoo. your users are not here for innovative design. the only reason people still use yahoo is because of its familiar interface.
