Using dark theme, background for the messages tab is much worse now. By highlighting both read and unread emails with the gray background it became much harder to distinguish which email needs user's attention and which they have already gone through.

The only difference and indication for unread is a tiny blue dot - while going through emails people skim through title and content - thus they focus on the completely other part of the screen. Current UX forces them to go back and forth on every single email - instead of just knowing intuitively which email is unread and just scroll down while focused on content column. (e.i. without first moving their eyes on the left for tiny blue dot)

Can not tell the difference between read and unread emails. There isn't enough of a difference to know which emails been open already vs what has been open. The colors look to much a like.

Get rid of the large grey fill for emails viewed. Bold text for unviewed and light text for viewed is sufficient.
The subject lines should not be so tall.

Why is it that when I read a message, it becomes highlighted (like the whole row grayed out), but a new message is unhighlighted? I should have the option to highlight or not highlight.

For the messages in my inbox: I do not like to have different background colors for read/unread. Currently, read messages have a gray background while unread have a white background with a bold black font. This is visually disrupting. Can we have white background for everything please? or at least let the user choose his color preferences. thx!

I see the "read" indicator has been reduced to a bare dot on the far left. For those of us with large screens it really helps if the "read" indicator go across the screen. It used to be a read email would go from a slightly lighter black to a true black. Having to track back all the way back isn't working. At least bold/normal text for the subject/body summary. Just the dot on the left is poor visually.

Go back to the way read and unread emails were displayed in the inbox. Now they both have the same color, and it's hard to tell the difference. This just changed in the last few days, and it was a terrible choice.

In the old version of Yahoo e-mail, you accustomed us to the fact that unread messages have bold titles, and read messages have normal font titles. This is natural, since unread messages require greater attention, due to the fact that unknown information is not yet assimilated. Moreover, it is a matter of perception, in the idea that an unpressed button is more prominent (more visible) than a pressed one, which makes the bold font of unread messages welcome.
The confusing problem, however, is that in the new version you have reversed the system, with read messages being marked with a gray background, and unread ones with a white background. This, according to the reasoning above, is very confusing. Please analyze the situation, consulting with visual communication specialists, to make things as pleasant as possible, which is essential for a tool used daily by millions of people. A reasonable option could be to offer us the possibility to customize the appearance, not only by changing the theme or to dark mode, but also regarding the background of the message titles.

Why did you change the inbox?
I want to still be able to tell which ones I've read and which ones I haven't.
Now they ALL turn the same **** color, even the ones I've read.
I still want them in my inbox like they were before and be able to tell which ones I've already read.
But everything is all screwed up and I absolutely hate it every time you all changes something stupid.

They look like they are emails that are unread and not read. Please bring back the old view. This new view is unworkable.

Please fix this. Both read and unread emails remain highlighted. This makes it very difficult to discern between the two. The unread emails are bolded, but the difference is very difficult to notice, and is therefore pretty useless.

Thanks,

When we have all our emails read, the background color on the email turned to light grey. Say I have 10 read emails on top half of the screen, i clicked on the first one and I can read that email in the lower half of screen. Then I start moving down to 2,3,4th email one by one and keeps reading them. But at one point I forgot that what email I am on because all the emails in the list has the same background color, and the email that I clicked on, does not show any different background color. Therefore it gets very confusing at times that what email I am actually reading.

When using the dark mode, read emails used to appear in a dark gray/black color. Unread used to appear in a lighter gray color in inbox. It made it very clear when looking at both read and unread what emails you still had not opened. The only way to make it clear now is by only looking at unread or only looking at read which is not helpful when you need both at once.

Hate it, can you put a switch to turn it off

There was a feature where once an email was read, the email would turn from grey to black. Please return that feature. A purple dot on the left disappearing when an email is read is not enough to know that the message has been read. It's not easy to notice the purple dot especially when dark mode is chosen for the the entire email page. And I prefer dark mode. Thanks.

It is difficult to distinguish the read and unread messages.

Make it easy to tell read from unread emails. Mildly bold isn't very useful.

A lighter grey would be much better

I really dislike that read messages are in grey, it's horrible UI. And make the read emails stand out more than the unread, so reverse of what I would expect.

I don't like the grey background of the readed messeges. I'd liked the bolded/non bolded version of not read/read messsages.
