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.

Unfortunately, you cannot revert back. We are only making the new one better. We know change is frustrating and hard but we really hope you'll give the new layout a fair chance.



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.

Photos View - We added it to the sorting drop down in the top, right hand side of your Inbox. Click on that icon, and you'll see "More Filters" at the bottom, from there you can filter by Attachments and Photos in emails.

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
Unread Count - You can hover over "Inbox" to see the Unread count or you can expand the left hand column and Unread will be in the column below Inbox with the unread count. No hovering.



COMING SOON!
Compact View - Small, Medium and Large views are coming soon!

Unsubscribe Button in Subject Line - We are moving it out of the way!



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




Thank you! 💜

  6. DON'T PUT IN DIFFERENT FOLDERS

    STUPID and ridiculous layout. The whole reason I don't use gmail. I have just found emails that were very important that got filed somewhere and were missed. They don't come up in a search. NOT HAPPY.

  7. Put back Block Senders tab

    Where has the "Block Senders" tab gone? Can only be done now by adding (Typing) each individual email address which is time consuming if there are more than 1 email you wish to block.

  10. Everything is just too big, too much wasted space

    Everything is enormous with tons of wasted space around panes. The right side pane where calendar/contacts show cannot be collapsed taking up even more space in the page. I have half the real estate availabe on the old version for reading my emails. So much so, I had to change the zoom of the page to 80% to get some semblance of normalcy. Oh that means I need to keep on my reading glasses at all times now. Thanks Yahoo!

    When reading an email, the part of the pane that shows subject/buttons/from-to take up over 1/3 of the email pane…

  11. Change Blocked Sender Process

    Return to how it was.

    Old version - Open email, select spam emails to block, press add to blocked senders tab. 3 actions.

    New version - Open email, copy email address, go to settings, open security tab, paste in spam address, return to spam folder, delete item. 8 actions for each email.

    Not sure how this counts as an improvement,

  12. Unread emails don't stand out enough on dark mode

    The text for new emails needs to be a brighter/more contrasting white so that new emails stand out more prominently compared to read emails in dark mode.

  14. eliminare la colonna di destra!

    sono passato alla versione a pagamento per eliminare la pubblicità e sperando di poter eliminare quella (per me) insopportabile colonna di destra che rimpicciolisce l'aerea della mail (colonna centrale), ma non è possibile!! perchè non inglobate tutto nella colonna di sinistra lasciando la possibilità di avere la colonna centrale delle mail bella larga? questa nuova versione non mi piace molto, è meno semplice e chiara, era meglio la vecchia mail per me!

  15. look

    My main complaint is how the entire mailbox is white. Cosmetically, it is not appealing, and the black is too dark. This is why I preferred the basic mail. The top upper and left border should have an option of having a color. Especially with age, it its not easy on the eye...

    I also do not understand why I need to see the sender’s abbreviations. They make the mailbox look too crowded. The sender name and subject is sufficient.

  16. I am a paying customer and I want to use the basic mail version

    Btw, the paid version brought me sex ads that I've never had for the past 30 years that I've been using Yahoo mail (since 1996, and not since 1999, like your gaslighting suggests).

    I want to be able to use the basic email version - I don't want "smart" features, I don't want AI, I don't want your "targeted ads", I just want to be able to send and receive emails - STOP RUINING EVERYTHING THAT WORKS!!!!

  18. submit a complaint with human agent

    The "Turn on out-of-office response" feature is not working; even when enabled, the system fails to send an automated response to the sender upon receipt of a new email.

  19. Please make the email when stared more visible

    Please make the email when stared/flagged more visible, like the whole email becomes in a cream colour. You have added colourful icons for the sender, this distracts further when trying to find important emails. Unfortunately there is no an option to go back to the classic view, I would otherwise.
    Thanks

  20. Show all folders

    Why remove the choice of selecting different folders (directories proper technical name)? Previously it was possible to easily move between folders. It seems to be that the free version is a ''test setup'' due to various errors that appear over time. For example only one file can be attached at a time. More than one has to be attached separately.
