Make Trash and Spam Folders More Accessible

why make things harder to access? there's plenty of room in the left menu bar for those to be openly accessible.

    It's hard finding the trash and spam folder since on the bottom of everything. Can you move back where they used to be? Can I go back to the old version? It's a lot better. I don't like the dark background when you open emails. Thank you

    Hiding folders is ludicrous. I check my spam folder every day, why make me use an extra step now to do it?
    The trash and other icons are hard to see.
    You made yahoo mail worse, why ruin something that isn't broken?
    You are going to lose people to Gmail if these aren't fixed.
    It's even harder to see the inbox email titles.
    Complete fail

    The spam and trash folder should be in left window panel for easier access, Why hide it???

  • Ken Dowd commented  ·   ·  Report

    Make it easier to access spam and trash and then delete them. You took something that was simple in the classic email and made it so much more difficult.

  • Fahad Jafar commented  ·   ·  Report

    Trash and Spam folders should be in the left panel, not hidden. Also, each folder in the left, inbox, sent, spam, trash should have a delete button.

  • Melanie Leeson commented  ·   ·  Report

    Put the spam folder back in. I need to check it for real emails to me. Also, what happened to clicking "unread" to just check new email. I have to change back to it every time I read an email.l

    Hiding the Spam and Trash folders in the bottom of the folder list hidden inside three dots (...) is the stupidest design idea ever. Most people delete trash every time we check email so adding extra steps is a waste of time. FIX THIS!

  • John Hoagland commented  ·   ·  Report

    Who decided to hide the folder, such as Spam and Trash? I *want* to see the Spam folder in case messages get sent there accidentally.
    I also want to see the Trash folder to be able to recover messages.

    I agree with the other comments that this option should be customizable to users can choose to keep the folders hidden or not.

  • Kaja Kallas commented  ·   ·  Report

    How about a "likely spam" folder? Or maybe even a sort on spam score in the spam folder ??

  • SK . commented  ·   ·  Report

    I agree...or at least make the List customizable where the user can decide which categories to put in that list

  • Jason Syth commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please show all folders together. There's no need for a pop-up box to be able to access Unread, Archive, Spam, and Trash.

  • Michael Kielty commented  ·   ·  Report

    This is a law office and because you moved this away from sight, we have missed multiple emails.

  • Dina Freeman commented  ·   ·  Report

    PLEASE bring back the trash and spam folders on the left nav rail!! Why on earth would you make it harder for us to access those folders? Use those as much as inbox.

  • Dennis Wood commented  ·   ·  Report

    need a quick way to examine SPAM folder. Now I have to go to the bottom of the folder list to where there is a line of three dots. Clicking on that shows the SPAM folder plus other actions.
    Would like that list up near the top.

  • Bill Grunklee commented  ·   ·  Report

    Your "new" version of email makes me want to look for other email services or programs.

    Why do I return to my inbox when I delete a message. I am unable to find any way to change that in the old classic version after you switched me to you new awful version!

  • Helene Tekulsky commented  ·   ·  Report

    Unread, Archive, Spam, Trash, Settings, Help have all been hidden in a 3 dot area under my files on the left. I have many files there because I sort things I want to save. It was much better in the previous version where you could see all those files on the left and the Settings were easily accessible via the Icon at the top right. Also, as someone else mentioned, the right panel should be able to be closed or opened on demand, not permanently visible as it takes too much space away from the reading pane.

  • Joel Mehr commented  ·   ·  Report

    Allow the Archive folder to be pinned and allow rearranging the quick action buttons on the emails in the inbox to be rearranged. I use the Archive button more than any other so should be able to do that in one click.

  • Lynn Dodsworth commented  ·   ·  Report

    Admin.....Yes, drag and drop on the folders would be perfect!!

  • Lynn Dodsworth commented  ·   ·  Report

    I never use the star folder either. Does anyone? I did finally start using emails to myself, but now it's buried. Do you get user feedback before you make changes or do you assign the new people to mess with the interface and then put it out there for us to test?

  • Lynn Dodsworth commented  ·   ·  Report

    Yes!!! Give us the ability to rearrange our folders so I wouldn't have to put z's in front of the ones I rarely use and 0s in front of the ones I use often. And while you're at it, put the trash, spam, emails to myself, etc, folders back in the folders list so we can move them up to the top. It's so sloppy to have that 3 dot catchall menu thing below the folders for things that could easily be put other places.
