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! 💜

  2. Display of email address instead of Real Name

    It is impossible to navigate the contact list when the same people has multiple email address, or Multiple people with the same name. It only display the person name, and THERE ARE NO WAY TO DIFFERENCIATE BETWEEN THEM. Please either change it or just let people use legacy mode

    Remove the large Blocked images warning from top of every single email! I already know it is blocked, even a tiny link would work, didn't need a alert that takes 30% of the screen!

  5. external image suppression

    Hi.
    Under "Show images in messages," I click "Ask before showing external images," but it repeatedly reverts to "Show images in messages, Always, except in spam folder."

    It should keep my setting.

  7. Email List button - fix

    I was switched over to the new yahoo mail and am finding that when I
    am sending email using an "email list" the button stating "email this list" is not loading
    the email address in the address line...
    The chatbot told me to type in the name of the list - which worked but why is this not working?
    This "new yahoo" has been out for a long time - I went back to the old system because I did not like
    many things about it and now I am finding this bug... besides the fact that the color selections…

  8. Fix crash loop on new interface when hovering over order confirmations

    My account was updated to the new Yahoo Mail interface. There is a critical rendering crash on the main inbox page. Every time my mouse cursor hovers over an online order confirmation email in my list, the entire inbox crashes instantly and redirects to the purple error screen stating "Yahoo Mail has encountered a problem."

    This happens even in Incognito mode, but the same email opens perfectly fine on the Yahoo Mail mobile app. The issue is tied to how the new desktop web interface pre-fetches the automated code layout of order receipts on mouse hover. Please implement error handling…

  11. Attaching a document repositions the screen to an unusable position

    When attaching a document to an email, after the selection popup closes, the entire window reformats such that 90% of the emails and menus are above the top of the screen and cannot be scrolled into view. only the very bottom of the email body window, the attach/send/save draft controls, and the very bottom of the folder tree is visible in the top 10% of the pane. It is not scrollable, so there is no way to bring it into view. The only fix is refreshing the tab and re-opening the draft email.

  12. Change the Calendar format

    I'm a Yahoo user in Australia, and in Australia our calendar format is day/month/year but you have an Amercanised calendar format which has month/day/year and is very confusing. Can you please use an Australian Calendar format for Yahoo in Australia?

  17. My Yahoo Mail account can send and receive emails internally, but it is not receiving external emails from Gmai

    My Yahoo Mail account can send and receive emails internally, but it is not receiving external emails from Gmail, Outlook, or Supercell. I checked Spam, blocked addresses, filters, and storage, and there is no issue there. Please check whether incoming external mail is being blocked or delayed for my account.

    Stop the banner to add yahoo mail as an application. That application is useless, does not bring anything except taking space on the taskbar. Beside, even installing that app does not remove the popup.

  19. Yahoo mail web browser

    I have had my email with yahoo for 10+ years. Because Yahoo has made the email experience less user friendly. I will be abandoning this account and moving to Gmail. I should be able to drag my emails into my folders within my inbox.
