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.

*Those asking about going back to the old version. Unfortunately, if you do not see the "Go Back" button you cannot go back. We really hope you'll try the new experience! Thanks!


WHAT'S NEW?
Search by Sender - Just hover over the sender's profile image and a spyglass icon will appear where you can search all emails by that sender.
Multi-Tasking Tabs - Like before, open an email in a new tab.
AI Summaries - Ability to disable. Go to Settings > AI Features > Toggle Off
Number of Total Messages - Hover over the Inbox Icon and you will see both total number of messages and unread.
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.



COMING SOON!
Differentiate Unread v. Read - Better ways to see the difference.
Resize Images - Resize an image within the message.
Inbox Categories - Default to "All" category instead of always Priority.
Right Hand Column - Ability to minimize: Contacts, Starred, More (Currently for Yahoo Mail Plus subscribers)


TIPS:
Inbox Categories - You can go back to having just ONE Inbox. Go to Settings > Personalize Inbox.
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.

  1. Move the send button up to the top

    it is a very long way to the bottom on email chain. Plus the inner slide bar doesnt take you fully to the send button at the bottom. Very annoying!

  2. DELETE ALL

    I don't like that I have to go through each email to delete them. 99% are just trash and I would like to select them and delete. In fact, after I have reviewed the inbox and handled the ones I need to, I would like to "select all" and delete. I am not able to do this now.

  3. Stop putting my sent emails behind a paywall!

    When I send an important email, I move it from the sent folder to a subject folder where it belongs, i.e. School, Automobile, etc. Now I can’t find my recent sent emails in those folders. They appear to have been relocated behind a paywall. Is an upgrade to a paid account needed to access my important sent emails?

  4. la limitación del tamaño de almacenamiento

    Limitar el tamaño de almacenamiento a 15 Gb es un error muy grande; no veo ningún beneficio para los usuarios actuales y habrá muchos que dejarán de usarlo

  6. Bu yeni arayüzü hiç sevmedim. Sağdaki reklam alanı mail konusunu görmemi engelliyor. Depolama kısıtlaması da hoşuma gitmedi.

    Yukarda saydığım sorunları düzeltin. Yahoo kullanan az sayıda biriyim ve beni kaybedeceksiniz yoksa.

  7. Disable keyboard shortcuts

    There should be an option to disable keyboard shortcuts in the web UI. I'm always hitting them by accident.

  8. Being able to tell if you read an email or not

    Go back to the old way. New emails were white and turned grey after reading. Now they stay white whether they were read or not.
    You can not distinguish if the email has been read or not.
    This is causing a lot of confusing and wasted time.

  9. Fix email delete defect

    If you select one of more mail items and select 'delete', the mail is deleted. If you accidentally double click your system will delete the next email even though it is not selected. If I am lucky I notice and can recover it from the trash.

    Only delete selected items!

  11. Add a "compact" view to the email interface

    Paddings are way too large, text is too big:
    - Around the top nav bar
    - The rows with the emails are way too large, I'd like to see more of them on my screen
    - The buttons are way too big they have too much padding

    Other issues :
    The search bar is not centered in the middle
    Hovering over the rows (emails) has an outer box shadow which feels clunky, I prefer the subtle highlights.
    The new message button is HUGE too much padding and margins

  12. Have a setting to remove the icons from each line of the inbox.

    All those icons are just visual clutter. I don't like them.

  17. reduce line spacing

    I need to have less line spacing in my Inbox - there is now no setting for this - it needs to be closer spacing so I get more entries on my screen

  18. Contacts

    Further development of the Contacts section is urgently needed. Please insert an option to bulk delete all contacts. Add more possibilities to import/export with Outlook (classic). Add a possibility to handle contacts in a big screen and to sort them, edit them, merge them.

  20. Get rid of the new colored box around the text area.

    I don't understand the purpose of the new highlighted box in the To field and in the text area. A simple cursor is sufficient.

    And then at some point, the box goes away.
