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!



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!




**Please do NOT post about Account, Password, Login issues here. It will be deleted. Please go to help.yahoo.com.




Thank you! 💜

  2. i absolutely hate the new UI

    Can you go back to the old layout? The new UI is garbage, I hate it, and I'm trying to switch over to gmail because the yahoo interface is just simply unusable. I don't know what you were thinking.

  3. Clear message selection after completing an action.

    Please add an option to automatically uncheck selected messages after an action is completed. Currently, when I select a message and perform an action, the checkbox remains selected. This can easily cause a message to be accidentally deleted later because I may not realize it is still selected. Users should have the option to automatically clear selections after each completed action.

  5. The spacing of the page is horrible

    The entire page layout (all options) has too much unused space, which means that empty space on the page is not used for the content that users actually want. It's everywhere, but especially a huge waste of space around the sender and subject in the reading pane.
    Every day I use this New Yahoo Mail is one day I am closer toward a full switch to mt Gmail account. I HATE this new interface. It is SOOOOOOO SLOOOOOOW. You've added new features I don't want, which requires the entire experience to lag with every click. Going in and out of…

  6. Provide choices for colors in source email

    The colored sender circles make the inbox confusing because color attracts attention even though it does not indicate whether a message is new or unread. Bold text and the unread dot already clearly identify unread messages. Please give users the option to make sender circles plain or neutral so the unread indicators remain the primary visual cue.

  7. give a way to report ads!

    Some ads pretend to be emails to read!

    ...and then open up a bunch of spam tabs while taking over the computer!

    It is crazy to not allow people to report specific ads as breaking the rules, etc.

  9. Allow users the option to use the annoying new features.

    Who decided that these stupid popups were a good idea? I'm using email and I get an award popup for using the email. that's idiotic. I get another popup to tell me turn on notifications for messages from a certain sender. Equally stupid. Give me options to turn this junk off.

    The new yahoo mail is much slower than the previous version. I guess its because the annoying, distracting, unnecessary eye candy takes resources.

    I've been using yahoo mail for decades. I don't want to quit it, but I will if I cant mange and reduce the unnecessary junk that…

    The old yahoo mail let me select a range of emails at once. Please bring this back. There are a few ways this new UI has removed functionality that once was there.

  17. please allow SPAM settings to hold mail longer

    When I am traveling I do not always have regular access to my email. I frequently find email that is NOT SPAM in my SPAM mailbox. I want to be able to rescue those emails, not have them automatically deleted. Most of the time 30 days is long enough, but NOT ALWAYS. Please let me designate a longer time period - not indefinitely, but at least long enough to take at LONG vacation away from WIFi and cell phones.
