Return to Classic Mail
Go back to the original Yahoo. This is terrible. Why do I have to click on the 3 dots on the bottom to get the Spam and Trash Folders. They should be on the top with the icons for inbox, etc.

Let's go back to the old Yahoo. Quit trying to fix something that is not broken! Just because you CAN clone a sheep doesn't mean you SHOULD clone a sheep.

I also hate that I have to click so many times to do things now in Yahoo basic. I have to select action and then click apply. Very annoying! Use to be much smoother. Tired of clicking apply all the time.

I also hate the fact that I can no longer continuous scroll in Yahoo basic anymore. I have to click to a new page to see more emails. Such a pain!

The worst part is Basic Mail (which I am now using because the new standard version totally SUCKS!!!) will no longer group conversations...can't find that option anyway!! Sooooo emails from conversations are now ALL over the place, not grouped and organized at all. A total nightmare!!

I hate the new mail!!!!
I can't believe you just changed it without any type of option to use the old version or the new one!
Change it back to the classic version.
Used to be able to 'move to' and put email in a folder. Where is that? This is important. -

Feb 27th 1500+ comments want the Classic Version back. Today, Mar 3rd 2100+ comments want the Classic Version back. The rest of the top 10 only add up to 550. Interesting that the other ideas show some type of action being taken against them - the Return to Classic is not even being considered.
Yahoo continues to ignore the feedback and comments related to this issue.

My life is now miserable!! I cannot believe you made this change with no heads up. Total nightmare. Change back ASAP or I am going to Gmail. This change has caused me so much stress and frustration. About to have a heart attack dealing with this BS!!! Change back now!!

I used to be able to copy an image and paste it into emails - that is not working now.

I like a few changes - but the look of the old was much cleaner. Try to get the look more compact.

The OLD version is better. My 82-year-old Dad is struggling to use Yahoo mail now because the changes you made have made it impossible for him to read anything! Dad has me helping him, but the blinding white background causes me headaches, and I'm struggling with the new font, the layout and reading things like Dad is.
You've made what was an excellent product so much worse, and I can't believe you guys product tested this with actual users.
You guys are in violation of The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires websites to be accessible to people with disabilities. The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA is a set of internationally recognized standards that help ensure websites meet ADA compliance.
I'm going on Reddit to tell people to go here: https://adasitecompliance.com/website-accessibility-legal-requirement/ to complain and gather people to file a class action lawsuit against Yahoo/Yahoo Mail because your changes to email have made it difficult to impossible for people with visual issues. visually handicapped/elderly to read their email.
Not only have you made it more difficult for people to SEE their email, you've made navigating their email infinitely more difficult, adding additional steps, removing options based on whether someone is using basic or the version you're pushing.
Seriously..whomever 'updated' Yahoo Mail needs to be fired.
You'd been advised about this on the Reddit forum and I'm sure people have complained here as well.

I just noticed that there is no indication in the email list that I replied to the email. This is a helpful feature that is now eliminated. Grr!

The new version with each email title having a popup with icons to sort that individual email is too prone to accidental flickering emails into trash or spam or some odd place. I prefer to have to go back to the top to sort the emails.

So many pleas to switch back to the old version and still no reaction. Please make some beta testing before forcing the new template on us. The focus should be easy access and visebility on the mails.
Thank you

The AI Summary is a huge waste of space and time. I am not going to read what AI thinks my customers need... I have to scroll past that garbage to get to the important information. It looks terrible on the desktop.
To read emails I have to scroll back and forth and up and down. -

The new interface is not as user friendly as the old one. Please give users an option to return to the old version.
