Right Side Panel (Contacts, Starred, Etc)
There should be a way to remove the contact box on the right. This feature is useful when two windows (one is yahoomail) are displayed side-by-side. During these situations, window real estate is valuable.

The new webmail interface when in list view presents a blank "preview pane" on the right of the page that cannot be minimized or reduced even when preview is turned off. The pane just sits there taking up space completely blank. PLEASE fix this, I beg you. For people that use webmail for managing their email, the central pane is extremely important and needs more space to see the message list. The "preview pane" is currently wasting valuable real estate. Thank you.

Having a third window pane on the right makes the view message screen smaller. How do I turn off this window? If now removed make this an option as a drop down feature when selected.

I can't read a whole email in the email square on the mail plus screen. If the star/contact box was able to be removed, the email box could be bigger and I would not have to scroll right to see full line of email.

Not to mention the fact that More ONLY leads to discontinued notes feature warnings. If it has to be persistent, make it smaller. Better, make it pop down to a smaller icon to give me more room for my actual email.

The right bar space is useless and distracting. Please let me close or hide it.

I am disappointed to hear that there is no option to permanently disable the right column. Yahoo should consider adding such an option, as this column is totally useless to me, and no doubt to numerous other users as well, and it makes the experience of using my inbox more difficult. Having to get rid of the right column each time I refresh or login again is really annoying.
Another annoying feature of the new Yahoo Mail is these constant pop-ups about “progress.” if I were a sufficiently bothered by any lack of “progress“ I would do something about it myself. I cannot imagine why anyone thought this was a good idea.

I cannot see my full email with the ads. I have to slide back and forth to read the email.

The email pre-read shows if the layout is selected below, not right. It is not as user friendly for simple email management. The layout that shows on the right is wasted space that just has contacts, calndar (that leaves the email page completely, and star) - keep this elsewhere and use this space for pre-reads instead of just below. This manages the screen real estate better I think. I find this email so bad, I am wondering why I am paying monthly and I can just go to outlook and I get all of these and more for free.

This column is not of use to me. It makes viewing the email in the preview box incredibly hard. Is there a way to remove this box or at least minimize it?

there is a huge box to the right of my message preview pane - it needs to go away. It is too large and is completely empty. please delete the box and let message preview fill to the right side of the page.

Stop defaulting the "Starred" email list on the right. That is wasted space. I want to use my full screen instead of see a stale list of never changing "starred" emails always. The UI is too inflexible.

I won't use this feature and it takes up screen space unnecessarily.

The whole right pane that has your starred emails, contacts, and calendar needs an option to be hidden or removed. It is ridiculously large and takes up 1/4th of the screen. I like my emails to have the subject on the left and the content on the right. Doing this makes the content not fit the screen and I have to scroll left/right just to read the entire email. That's extremely obnoxious and seems like a massive miss from the design team.
The fact that I see this complaint all over the internet and it went through beta without this being fixed is telling how much Yahoo favors AI over real customers. My suggestion, quit using AI to dictate what customers like, it's not human and misinterprets real customer feedback data.

The new layout make the email subject and content tiny - centered in the middle. Having to scroll to view an entire email is ridiculous!! Get rid of that tab on the right so I can actually see what's important to me...

Having contacts take so much screen space is extremely annoying and frustrating, have a clear way to remove it from view and give that space to the actual email.
