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.

  2. At least allow users the ability to revert back to the previous version.

    I would like the opportunity to be able to revert back to the old or basic layout of Yahoo which displayed my folders next to my inbox allowing me to drag emails directly into a folder. I did not ask for this new layout and am finding it frustrating. I was told I could revert back by clicking on “More Options” but there is still no mention of being able to revert back under that. Although I know that various systems are always being updated which is understandable, users of Yahoo should at least be given the choice as to…

  5. Fix "unread" because it doesnt ******* work

    If I look in the "inbox" I can see recently received emails that are unread dated 21st may but if I select the "UNREAD" folder there are no unread emails received since the 18th.

    It doesn't matter how many times I switch between the inbox and unread folder it just doesnt show them.

    I have dozens of different folders and mail is directed to folders using the filters so when your "unread" selection doesnt work I can easily miss a critically important email.

    You don't allow us to contact support, you have reduced the storage quota to a fraction of…

  6. Dissatisfied

    I want my old look back now! I was not even given an option. I have been a LONG time user. Change it back so I can clearly read my messages. This is NOT reader friendly at all. I guess it's time for gmail.

  8. What happened to Preferences to sort by date on Sent items?

    Every other folder has a preferences option, where I can change the sort by date from oldest to newest. It no longer exists in Sent items. What happened? Please restore this capability.;

  16. Deleting Old Emails

    You may have the option to do this, and I just can't find it. I would like to be able to set a date and have all emails before that date be auto deleted. Or something like: Delete all emails older than 1 year or older than 6 months.
