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!

  1. Please restore and bring back the multi-tab feature to Yahoo Mail for browsers

    Hi Yahoo mail team,
    I’m requesting the multi-tab feature for Yahoo mail for browser.

    Please restore and bring back the multi-tab feature to Yahoo Mail for browsers.
    It is a vital tool for productivity, and bringing it back would significantly enhance the user experience.
    Thank you for your help.

    You can still Sort by Sender, we haven't taken this ability away. Just like the old version, you need to disable Conversation view. Once you disable this you will see Sender name as a sorting option. Thanks.

  8. Edit folders suddenly missing

    Suddenly, the Folders I store emails in won't let me edit their names. Can no longer find the edit option.

    You can expand the folders in the left hand column. Once you expand them by hovering your mouse on the edge, you'll see "..." (three dots) next to each folder by hovering your mouse again. There you can manage your folders, including renaming the folder.

  9. Stop linking unrelated emails together

    I am querying and all emails with the same subject: Query: *** get linked together. Now I have a massive email chain of potential literary agents and if they get the chain I look like an idiot! this is a huge no no in the industry. please help!

  10. Add Snooze Capacity in Yahoo New Mail

    Dear Reader,

    I hope you are doing well.

    I am a fairly new Yahoo New Mail user. Generally, I enjoy and appreciate it, especially since 1. it is free and 2. doesn't sell users' information whether we consent or not, as Google/Gmail does.

    I export most Gmail messages to my Yahoo New Mail account with Thunderbird. Unfortunately, neither Thunderbird nor Yahoo allow users to Snooze messages.

    This means I need to use Mailbird, yet another email manager, in order to snooze certain emails. This wastes space on my laptop, which has a total of less than 60 GB.

    Please allow…

    Thanks Nicole! We really appreciate the feedback and suggestion. We did try "snooze" in the past and it didn't do so well with our users, as in, not many users used the feature. Therefore, we decided not to launch it. We will certainly share this with our team again as habits and use cases change. Thanks again!

  11. put the contacts quick link button back

    I need to add a contact from someone who has not yet emailed me. There is no way to do that with the current format.

    Hi there, you can still add Contacts manually. Looking at your Inbox, you'll see the Contacts icon on the right hand side. Near the right hand rail ad. There you'll see the Calendar icon, Starred Icon and Contacts icon. Thanks.

  12. Show where my photos file is!

    There is no icon or folder indicating my photos in this new Yahoo Mail. Where are they?

  13. Inbox is too busy

    The New Yahoo Mail is awful and I will be giving feedback regularly until you either allow me to have the old version or you fix how cluttered and terrible it looks. I only want to see the sender and the subject line, I do NOT want to see any of the body of the email in my inbox. It is currently too cluttered and looks terrible. I do not use the app on my phone because the app has never worked well for me, so checking emails via internet browser on my phone is now nearly impossible with the…

  14. Starred view optional.

    Allow to disable the Starred view. It is annoying and useless if I do not want to see those starred messages. This should be optional.

  15. Deleting emails.

    why do you have to delete each email one by one. that takes so much time. I like it simple. The old yahoo you could select the weeks or days box and delete all with one click. no you have to click each email and then delete

    You can still bulk delete or even select all/delete all. Just tap on any checkbox and you'll see a new checkbox appear at the top. From there you can bulk delete or select all/delete all. Thanks.

  16. Filter by Folder

    The previous interface had a way to filter/search by folder (e.g., see all emails from sender X in Inbox) which was very helpful. I don't see where that is an option in this new view.

  17. inbox suggestions

    Previously i could quickly see all my inboxes at a glance and the amount of unread messages of each inbox, why was that taken away. Now i have to hover that box at the bottom to even see my inboxes period. if one was not diligent in noticing the very small number placed next to the inbox you could very easily miss unread emails awaiting your attention. Also why would you take away the option to keep it the same as it has been for ever. its very disappointing to log into something you have used for years to discover…

    Hey John, you can expand the left hand column. Just hover your mouse on the edge of the column and Inbox, Two arrows will appear and you can then expand the column. Then you'll see your Folders and Unread folder (even number) without hovering. Thanks.

  18. Confusing and NOT User Friendly!

    Your new Yahoo Mail layout is confusing and NOT user friendly! It is in no way an improvement on the old layout of Yahoo Mail. I would love to be able to revert to the old layout or the "basic mail" layout but I can find no way to do that. There is an old saying: "If it is not broken, don't fix it." Yahoo Mail was not broken and you fixed it. Now it is SERIOUSLY broken!

    We have heard that old saying, but we didn't fix anything. We simply launched a new design. All functionality is still the same. Unfortunately, there is no reverting back. Very sorry! We are only enhancing the new experience. We hope you give the new layout a fair chance. Thanks so much!

    Hi Joseph, thanks for the email. Yes, we don't have the right click to open a new tab, but we still have this feature. You just need to enable it under your Settings. Just go to More > Settings > Appearance > Multi-tasking tabs.

  20. cannot find settings icon on desktop yahoo e-mail

    How do I find the settings icon on my Yahoo e-mail on my desktop computer? I need to edit my filters because e-mails are automatically going to my trash box ever since my account was compromised 2 weeks ago
