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.

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. Return to Classic Mail

    Go back to the original Yahoo. This is terrible. Why do I have to click on the 3 dots on the bottom to get the Spam and Trash Folders. They should be on the top with the icons for inbox, etc.

  4. Easy viewing of messages with attachments

    When a conversation is expanded, giving 1-line previews, it would be useful to see which messages carry attachments

  5. Can 'select all' be made visible all the time?

    Hello, I saw in a couple posts that the 'select all' box becomes available once an email has been selected. Personally, I'd prefer it if the 'select all' box was always visible. It's honestly kind of annoying that I have to select an individual email in order to make the 'select all' box visible. Also, I recently realized this, but when I'm in a filter/folder other than 'all' I instinctively think the 'all' is the 'select all'.

  6. The "Drafts" icon no longer shows the number of active drafts

    In the old version I was able to see how many drafts were currently in the Drafts folder.

    This is no longer possible for some reason

    Please fix.

  8. "No internet connection"

    Over the past couple days, Yahoo Mail has not worked on my phone, and my computer has told me "no internet connection" when I go to open an email, which is a lie, as everything else on my computer is working. I don't know what's happened to Yahoo, but this is frustrating.

  9. Turn Off "Streaks"

    I hate this annoying "Streaks" thing you've just started in Yahoo Mail. It has no discernable purpose. I can't find a way to turn it off in my desktop view. Show me how to turn it off - by an easy toggle preferably - or eliminate it. Please.

  10. Remove the ads from the bottom of the email reading screen

    The ads to the side are somewhat unobtrusive, but now with ads at the top of the email and at the bottom of the email, there's hardly room for the message! Please remove the ad banner from the bottom of the email. This has gone too far!!!!

  11. Pleaseeeeee go back to the old version. Thank you

    It's hard to handle and look for the new "look" of Yahoo main page. Why in the world would change the appearance of the Yahoo?. The old version is very easy to handle and understand. If there are not a button of get back to Yahoo old version, I'm going to look to close the account and open a new one in Google.

  14. Switch back to Classic or Basic

    Give users the option to switch back to classic or basic interface. Your new format is difficult to manage, unappealing and cluttered.

  16. Arrow to view subfolders of subfolders no longer visible

    When the left side of the screen is expanded to show folders, if a subfolder name is too long, the drop-down arrow to show the subfolders under that folder is no longer visible. This is a new issue. Previously, the folder name would be truncated so that the arrow was always visible. Now, I can't access the subfolders of a subfolder unless I close the left-hand column, click on the icon for Folders, and choose the subfolder's subfolders through the pop-up box. Please fix this ASAP so that the drop-down arrows to access subfolders are again always visible.

  17. Problem on Block

    Hi
    In the old version of Yahoo, we could select multiple emails in the spam folder and add them all to the blacklist (Block them). In the new Yahoo Mail, this option is missing!

    also many beutiful theme was in old version, this new version is so soulless!!!!

    The best way to get rid of spam is to mark as spam, not delete or block! This helps with your spam filters and does exactly what blocking does, prevents that email from coming to your Inbox. So please keep marking as spam! It is free and part of regular Yahoo Mail. Thanks!

  18. Ditch the streak, and literally everything else

    No one cares about email streaks, this is a needless distraction, I want to turn all of that off immediately. This isn't Snapchat or something where people want to maintain some connection. Needless gamification that literally gets in the way of me doing work. I can't see a choice you've made here in this new interface that I find valuable, and most of it wants to make me claw my eyeballs out.

    You've taken up more space with things I don't care about, you've eliminated features I do care about (I like to see previews of my mail so I…

    Yes, we launched a fun way to reward our users for reading and organizing your emails, but you do not have to participate (not forced). Friendly reminder to always check your Settings. You can disable Streaks by going to the three dots "..." in the left hand navigation and then Your Streaks. Thanks.

  19. Spam

    I really need a spam folder for you to automagically put obvious JUNK into.
