Please get rid of the colored circular ICONS! They busy up the page needlessly.

I can add a snapshot of this if there is any way to add an attachment.

stop emails with graphics in email address. I get tons of emails with little graphics and icons before and after the email address of the sender. How can I stop these from getting through? There are too many to mark as spam.

The new UI may look better but it takes double and triple the time find out which mail is new. Saving my time is the the most important UI and UX.
Because of that I prefer the old design. Also, I don't think there is any benefit of the Icons. Just making it too busy. You can easy make it optional. -

Agreed: allow me to remove the useless icons on the email list, and compact the entire screen to 2/3 to half the current level of "fluffiness". I would much rather see more entries per screen than all this dead space.

Get rid of the icons in front of the emails in the Inbox. Completely unnecessary, distractive, and clutters the space.
Also get rid of the gray highlight of READ emails. If anything, make the UNREAD emails hghlighted. -

Please give the option to remove the image or circle with sender initials on new emails. It is distracting. I don't need a blue or red circle with someone's initials in it! It is distracting and want the option for no image

Those circular icons in front of the senders in email need to go or make that optional They add visual clutter and do not add any functionality to the emails. Why in the world do we need them? Just clutter.

First of all you need an "Other" as a topic
Sefond - I do NOT want to see the annoying Icons associated with the sender - 1) they take up unnecessary space and 2) they are annoying - very annoying - exceedingly annoying -

Avatars next to senders' names are causing a problem for me, as is the boldness of the font and also the style of the font for the written portions of sender's names and subject headings. Also the background when reading emails (I prefer a white page). I'm having trouble focusing with these changes -- it's literally dizzying for me, like wearing glasses that are too strong. But even if I can adapt to some of the changes -- I woke up with a killer headache today, and that is something that might recur.

PLEASE give us the option to hide the colored circle icons in front of the senders name they are very distracting! Or just remove them. It's very hard to focus and see or find what I am looking for with all those different little color circle icons. I liked Classic Email better, but you took option away for dark mode so I had to switch to Standard to get dark mode. Might have to switch back to classic if something isn't done about the circle icons.

I don't like the icons. They interfere with rapid review and processing of my email inbox contents. Should be a way to disable them.

Please get rid of the icons. They are a distraction that are unnecessary.

We do not need emails to match and be consistent with Yahoo's mobile apps. GIVE US THE OPTION TO REMOVE and not see the profile icons/avatars. They make it more difficult to skim through emails from senders.

The icons makes the page big and bloated. I now see 5 fewer emails on the screen with those stupid images. Do you think that is more or less efficient?
Give us the option to turn them off. -

Based on your comment to Shiela, the trouble is that you think that everything these days is app driven. Some of us still use desktops and want the functionality of the old program again. It would also be nice if you put back words instead of pictures at the top for reply, forward etc.

The new version of yahoo email makes it much harder (imo) to immediately determine what is an add and what is an email. Part of that is that the little checkbox present in classic yahoo email is now only visible if you mouse over the email, because it's hidden behind an unnecessary little graphic that displays info on who the email is from.
This also makes it more difficult to quickly delete emails that you don't need, because it's not immediately apparent what's an email and what's an ad, and you have to wait for the little checkbox to appear when you mouse over the email before you can actually click on the little checkbox.

I cannot read my emails there is so much clutter on the screen now. I am going to have to default to my phone to be able to delete and manage my inbox. This is ridiculous to follow iphone and not ask the consumer their thoughts before making a unilateral decision. you have to provide customization options just like outlook to allow the user to be efficient in reviewing emails.

Hi Shelia, we do have the ability to disable or change these to checkboxes in the app. Therefore, there is mention of adding this ability to desktop settings as well. We will share this with our team. Thanks.
