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.

I do not like this version - it is confusing. If it doesn't go back to the old version - I will stop using it. It is not user-friendly at all.

New version looks like trash. Rounded corner bubble boxes are stupid. Lack of choices in appearance also a big negative. We used to have several choices for colors and now you just have light or dark. Either one of these choices suck. I don't like bright mode for most stuff, and dark mode is ultimately too dark. Previously I had set a slightly darker blue color for everything and it was perfect. Now it just hurts to look at.
The switch to gmail is looking much more preferable at this rate.

I want the old email back - this is terrible.
I can no longer find what folders emails from a sender are in - use to be nice to see if they were in inbox or folder I created. Now I have to remember where they are and just keep moving them to folder even though they may already be there. The grayed out for read emails is not good at all - very hard to read. The right side is for starred, contacts, etc - WASTE OF SPACE! I would to stretch out the middle section that I use and reduce the right side - NOT POSSIBLE.PLEASE JUST GO BACK TO WHAT WORKED AND WHAT I PAY YOU MONTHLY FOR.

Please restore the previous UI. The new one is a litany of bad user design choices.
1. No 'mark all read' option anymore, was very useful
2. No archive all option.
3. Not all email folders display on the sidebar now.
4. Font is smaller, harder to read on a larger monitor or at a slight distance..
5. Search results has fewer tuning options.
6. The dark mode setup doesn't seem to have font/color choices for it making some things disappear on the black background or fade out and hard to see.
7. Starred/Contacts on the opposite side of the sidebar just takes up space till selected. Would serve better if it collapsed to that side and the user had to click it to open it rather than wasting space.
8. The default to 'category tabs' is difficult to work with as it defaults to a 'Priority tab' which never actually had priority emails, instead hiding them under other tabs or requiring the User to move to the All tab. Should be an opt-in, not default on. -

I chose to stay with the classic version and it was changed without my permission. Why is that?

The new message viewing window is too small to view the full width of emails, so makes it difficult to read them. Photos and text are consistently chopped off on one side. Also, I can no longer find the arrow to click through emails automatically without navigating through the inbox.
I have come to vastly prefer the native Apple mail app and Gmail's desktop mail service to the new Yahoo. Overall, the new layout is hard to read, and not very functional in the ways that are actually useful to me.

FYI, I tried the new version before, but switched back to the classic version because I found it MUCH more preferable. I'm very unhappy that it is no longer available, especially since I don't recall any warning that I would be switched even if I didn't want to. Why was switching even an option earlier, when there was no intention to retain it? I regret finding it necessary to go through the hassle of seek a new provider.

I don't like the new yahoo version it does not invite me to want to read my email. There was more contrast in the letter coloring. Grey is hard to read. Make the print black. I also don't like to have to click ALL to see all my mails. I don't like this Priority section automatically popping up. Constantly click the ALL is annoying.

How can I get back to the previous email version. This new one is horrible; not well designed at all. Who decided this is better...a 15 year old?

The "new and improved" Yahoo is here, yaaay!! With that EVERY EMAIL I've ever received, are now in my INBOX. That's right, even emails I deleted or put in a folder. Isn't that special. I have a feeling other email providers will see big gains after this horrible change.

The changes and the forced move to this new version is both a distraction and an insult to our choices. Please allow a roll back to the basic viewership.

This new look is distracting and less effective. Lots of dead space and ads, very little room for mail. Please give us the option to go back to the classic version.

Please revert back to the older version. On the new version I can only see 5 message at a time on my Pixelbook. Also what is the point of the third column a the right of the screen, it steals a ton of screen real estate.
