From the apparent yahoo!mail feedback home page via https://yahoo.uservoice.com/forums/962180-new-yahoo-mail -

"*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!"

To yahoo!email:
I tried your "new experience”, as well as the approx. 5K+ other users who have commented here. We don’t like it and would like (at least the option of) reverting to the old/classic format. As of 3/17/2025, the 2nd-rank issue had only 1/20th the number of comments as this 1st-ranked issue. Seems like an excellent priority-of-work feedback mechanism. BTW – Possibly omitting the design option that allows YOU to allow ME to go back the old/classic would be less believable than the idea that you thought you could make such a change and not anticipate such an avalanche of negative feedback.

I before today I could move between the two to see if anything had actually changed based on all of the NEGATIVE comments I see. Now I can't even change back to the classic version. I'm almost ready to give up.

I need to go back to the old classic version. I really prefer the original format!!!

Agree with all comments made by others. I cannot see where the "new" is in this Yahoo Mail. It is clunky and difficult to use. NEED at least THE OPTION FOR CLASSIC.

Yahoo SHOULD give us an option BUTTON to remain with the original format we have used for YEARS & YEARS & YEARS. Let the new users use the new unfriendly yahoo mail. The new version is not friendly, and leaves wasted screen space, I DO NOT LIKE IT.

this new version sucks big time. i nee to revert back to classic.
going to google

Not user-friendly!!! PLEASE allow us to go back to the classic format.
My email is very important, and like most of us, I've had it for years.
It's very frustrating to use now!
I

PLEASE go back to the previous version. I can barely function in this new version.

Why tweak something that worked well for the majority of people. Can't the new version be made similar to the classic which most seem to prefer.

Closing in on 5k comments on how bad the new version is and still no word from Yahoo! It is no question what the people want when you read this forum YAHOO!

PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD LET US GO BACK TO BASIC.

The current format of yahoo mail is so user unfriendly.

Why are the emails contents on the subject line?

Why is there a huge gap of blank space on the right side?

Why are emails no longeer grouped by month?

This has been my primary email for so long but it is infuriating to use right now.

PLEASE BRING BACK THE NORMALITY AND GIVE US AN OPTION TO GET BACK TO OLD FORMAT. The new one is Horrible.

How can I go back to the old format?

3/17/2035: No matter how long the New and/or Basic mail format used to have a "go back" button (to old/classic), it is deplorable that now you have no warning that you if you click Basic or New you can no longer "go back".
The New format is terrible, and Yahoo administration is terrible to force a one-way switch from a classic format that I'm sure kept most @yahoo.com users happy or at least content.

Need to give people the choice to change or leave it the same. I do not like the new version.

I liked the old version better. Easier on the eyes too.

i am comfortable with the old format

Where did my sort by sender feature go? I need that back!!! I hate this new Yahoo.

I'd like to throw my hat in the "GO BACK TO CLASSIC VERSON"! Today the option to go back to the classic version disappeared, if today was April 1 I'd swear this was done as an April Fools prank!

It's worse than what y'all are saying! NOW they have a link "go back to standard yahoo" and it takes you to the NEW one!!!! That after I had issues with the classic and thought they switched me without knowing it. **** IDIOTS!

Now I cannot get back????/!!!!!
