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.

  4. go back to original

    The new Yahoo Mail desktop design is a significant step backwards. It wastes screen space, makes navigation less straightforward and forces an unnecessary right-hand pane into the layout.

    What is particularly frustrating is that when I try to gain more room to view my messages, Yahoo promotes Mail Plus at £4.99 per month to remove adverts. Users should not have to pay £59.88 a year simply to have a cleaner, more practical email layout.

    Please restore the option to use the previous Yahoo Mail design permanently, or allow users to remove the right-hand pane and unnecessary clutter without paying a…

  6. The new version is much much slower than the old version.

    The new version is much much slower than the old version for selecting mail items - With the new slow version, it takes a few seconds for the item to display the delete button when I click on the mail item - With the old version, it's much much faster to respond when I click on a mail item - Please make the new version as fast as the old version

  8. new yahoo mail version is a terrible user experience

    I can not open my e mails at new tab. I searched internet, found the relevant place on setting enabling multitabs, yet its not working. Almost impossible user experience. It doesnt allow to switch the old version as well. I want my old version back, this is so useless

  10. Improve spam filtering accuracy and allow unlimited domain blocking

    Yahoo Mail’s spam filtering needs to become more reliable. A particularly serious problem is that legitimate emails are sometimes incorrectly sent to the Spam folder. This means users can miss important messages because they cannot confidently rely on the Spam folder to contain only unwanted mail.

    At the same time, users dealing with persistent spam and scam campaigns need better tools to control what reaches their mailbox. Yahoo should allow all users to block an unlimited number of sender domains, rather than imposing a very small limit.

    Better spam filtering combined with unlimited domain blocking would give users much more…

  16. Stop asking me to unsubscribe to yahoo groups. It's been six years already.

    Because of your storage limitations I'm going through a backlog of old messages from yahoo groups and when I hover over the right side of the subject line it asks me if I want to unsubscribe and I waste a nontrivial amount of time closing that popup. Why are you asking me to unsubscribe to a yahoo product that hasn't existed for several years anyway?

  18. Agenda

    please let us go back to the previous format where we had all the info about a meeting WITHING THE MAIL. I again had only the link and no info as to the day and hour I had the meeting. It's outrageous. Give us back the old format. The new one is NO GOOD AT ALL.
