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! 💜

  5. Please restore the inbox date headings: Today, Yesterday, Last Week, and Last Month. These made it much easier to scan and organize messages

  7. Lose the side panel in Yahoo Mial on the web.

    That side panel doesn't let you get a good preview on laptops when using the web version of Yahoo Mail. It should be minimally collapsible. It is really annoying in its current state. I don't always need to see my contacts, starred emails or settings available 24/7. It chews up valuable real estate.

  9. No one likes the new format, give us the old format back.

    I along with many many others hate this new format. Quit changing things because you think it is great, it's NOT. We hate it. I am so uncomfortablle with new format.

  11. Put the 'Go Back' Button back

    I want to change the view to my old version. I liked the green background I had and the way the buttons and words looked. It was easier to view the information I needed. Now you've forced me into this awful light or dark mode only. It's hard to see anything in this monotone color scheme or white or black. Please allow the go back to old version so I can switch to a simpler viewing for myself. Why are we taking options away from people. What is it hurting you. It's my inbox to sift through.

  12. Can you give more color options for visual experience

    I am really having a very diffucult time with the limited colors/themes. Black or white literally all i can change to.
    I used to have blue which was a great in between. The white is too bright and the black I have a hard time distinguishing what is an unread email
    that is a major issue for me with this new experience, unless there is an option I am missing

  13. Yahoo layout????????

    How do I get the Yahoo email screen to take up the entire laptop screen window??
    I don't need the separate window on the right. The user should be able to set up his/her own window.

  14. Allow users to switch back to the old Classic Mail.

    What other successful businesses tell their customers what they want as opposed to listening and providing the product or service they want?

  17. More compact, lighter feeling email lists

    Bring back the ligher feeling, more compact email lists. The new one - the font is larger, I'm seeing less of the email title.
    Also, make it more compact.

    Same from the mobile version. I'm scrolling more now, it's very annyoing.

  19. Show all addressees

    In the new interface all addressees are reduced to the principal addressee and then "+1 more" or "+2 more." There should be a way to turn this off so that all addressees can be seen. Hiding them is not helpful.

  20. How about we change the email back to the old layout?

    Not sure who was sitting around thinking we needed a new layout, but this is horrible! I don't even like getting on my email anymore from my laptop computer. I guess I'll just check my emails from my phone since no one has managed to ***** that up yet! At least give us an option to go back the the old email layout!!! No one asked for a new layout!
