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:
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!




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




Thank you! 💜

    WELL, THANKS FOR GIVING US THE MIDDLE FINGER. SO MUCH FOR "...if it ain't broke, don't fix it!' YAHOO JUST FIXED IT UNTIL IT BECAME BROKEN! Yes, I'll be looking for another email service where the format doesn't look like it was designed by an 8-year-old.

  4. Restore ability to view at a glance whether multiple Yahoo email accounts have unopened mail

    I have 5 Yahoo email accounts, three of which are used heavily, and having to switch accounts to see whether any of the accounts have unread email is tedious. Please consider making unread email status across multiple accounts visible at-a-glance again.

  5. go back to the old style!

    Hi, ok i know progress is inevitable, but this new version is not user friendly if you're disabled. I only have the use of one hand. "drag and drop" doesn't work for me. And I miss the "sort by sender" feature.

    No way to change back?

  7. my yahoo mail switched to new settings, and FAILED

    I lost access to my previous mailboxes - cannot view them anymore.
    This change is very rude, without leaving a choice to user.

  9. Bring back ability to use the old style email or fix these issues you took away.

    You got rid of the arrows that took you back to the top of your email feed with this "improvement"? What's with that? Just give us the option of going back to the other email. I prefer the written word to pictures at the top. It took me a while to figure out that they were even there. And, again, I prefer to see all my folders listed but now I can't as it's only a drop down menu.

  11. Date Headers

    Please bring back the header for each day that shows the date, so it would be easier to see what emails are received each day, instead of one big list

  12. give users basic or classic look BACK!!!!!!!

    i do NOT like any of the new layouts or designs.
    all i want is a block old style look, all the new stuff is hard to use.
    the old basic look was the easiest to see and use.

  13. Multiple emails open at a time

    PLEASE PLEASE bring back my ability to click between open emails. I don't know what it is called but the reason I stay with Yahoo and haven't moved to Gmail is because I could see various open emails easily clicking between them and move between a draft or received email.
    PLEASE bring back that option- I want to be able to refer to multiple emails at a time...now you are just another version of Gmail. SO SO SO SO SO SO sad to have lost that feature.

  14. Group by Sender

    I would like to have the option to group by sender back. This helped in reviewing the email from the sender and to file the emails easier.
