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?
AI Summaries - Ability to disable. Go to Settings > AI Features > Toggle Off
Number of Total Messages - Hover over the Inbox Icon and you will see both total number of messages and unread.
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. 



COMING SOON!
Resize Images - Resize an image within the message.
Multi-Tasking Tabs - Like before, open an email in a new tab.
Inbox Categories - Default to "All" category instead of always Priority.
Right Hand Column - Ability to minimize: Contacts, Starred, More (Currently for Yahoo Mail Plus subscribers)


TIPS:
Inbox Categories - You can go back to having just ONE Inbox. Go to Settings > Personalize Inbox.
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.
Drag and drop messages to folders - Just click and hold on an email message, then drag and drop that message into a different folder. 
Dark Mode - Go to Settings > Appearance.




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

  3. Ads look like unread messages

    Ads look exactly the same as unread email! Makes it impossible to differentiate between an ad and an important message. VERY annoying, please fix!!

  4. allow more than 3 blocked domains

    allow more than 3 blocked domains
    Should allow blocking of an unlimited number of domains and/or senders instead of limiting to 3/1000.

  8. Make your ads lines in email a different color so I don't click on them trying to multi-select

    Ads in the email message list constantly get in my way when I try to click multiple emails to select them. Then I have to start over. Yeah, I know you're trying to get me to click those, but it is a horrible UX and you need to make it easier to differentiate ads.

  10. MAIL BOX STORAGE

    The payment options for increasing storage do not allow anyone based outside the US to make payments by credit or debit card. Kindly update this as sending a notice to stop the email service in 30 days without any payment options is somewhat problematic.

  14. print icon on email menu list

    Who I open an email, there's many option for/ reply, stars folders, trash, spam, another one or two but not Print, I have to hit the three ... to see print function. I would like the print icon on the primary screen, I'm sure that would have more use than several of the icons now showing, like the star.

  15. Remove the unsubscribe option when hovering over the email title

    The unsubscribe is located in an odd spot, and I've clicked on it too many times for it to be useful. Return it to when looking at the email. It's more useful there since I can check out the email and see if it is actual of value to me

  17. spam

    Please put the spam folder back where it is visible. It's annoying having to go all the way to the "..." at the bottom.

  18. unsubscribe button

    While the UNSUBSCRIBE button is a nice idea, it tends to cover the "subject" message and pops- up and activates while user trying to see what the messages are before opening. Also it does NOT work with ALL ads/subscription with membership sign up. IE Blains Farm and Fleet one example as I was reviewing inbox while typing this.
    THANKS

  19. Un-collapsing folders permanently

    I would like the folders to stay un-collapsed when I click on the arrow. I don't like having to un-collapse them every time I open my account. It's annoying.
    Thanks for listening.

  20. stationary

    Please bring back stationary. Don't make yahoo like gmail - if we wanted that, we'd use that. Yahoo and Ymail used to feel more personal than that. Please bring back stationary!
