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.

It's ok to improve, but what is the point of changing the look and texture if it becomes too slow to be even unsuable. I tried forwording some mails from my phone and i ended up doing it from my pc, waiting for a message to be forwarded..... i dont think the speeds are there

Every time I want to file an email in a folder the folder list pops-over to suggest a second window automatically! This is very annoying. This should be a setting. It is also sickening for those who suffer from vertigo and visual & balance issues. Please change this. Why would anyone want this constantly? EVERY STINKING TIME! Give it a rest please! Make it stop please!

having more themes is needed, since the light is too light , the dark is too dark. The old yahoo email have more choices.

I don't know whose idea it was to change that, but using a purple dot to differentiate that something is unread vs read is truly one of the WORST design choices I have ever seen. It's impossible to tell at first glance of my inbox when something is unread or read. Go back to using a darker shade color for when something is read PLEASE.

The format of your NEW Yahoo is horrible. Every time I try to reply to a sender, it combines all emails in a chain and thinks its a draft and doesnt send. This is going to have me on the streets eventually as I cannot communicate with employers.

Appalling new interface for free users. Just a small box to read mail, the rest is full of ads at the bottom and on the right side. Half readable titles. Cant resize. Only black and white, cant discern which is read which not in the black version, old version you could choose background. Even worse for use on smartphones. Disrespectful for old users. i may be switching to other emails.

As a desktop user who has received the update already, this is just so bad. What was wrong with the previous way of showing read emails? It darkened the email so that you could easily tell at a glance what has been read and what hasn't. Why would you think that changing that and making it so a tiny purple dot is now the new indicator of read and unread? It not only makes it incredibly hard to discern between the two, but it also creates just so much extra visual noise with the extra color added. Please, please undo this. Please.

I use Chrome or Edge. It fails in both. I had to do search on mobile email client to find by search. Also scrolling is a lot slower on new mail interface and some times doesn't scroll well and refreshes screen with changing ad's.

Expanded Theme Library
Offer a wider range of professional and modern themes (minimalist, gradient, seasonal, corporate). Outlook provides subtle, office-friendly palettes that Yahoo could emulate.Custom Theme Builder
Allow users to upload background images or select custom colors for folders, headers, and buttons. Outlook’s personalization is limited, so Yahoo could differentiate by being more flexible.Dynamic Themes
Introduce adaptive themes that change with time of day (light in the morning, dark in the evening) or sync with system settings.Reset & Preview Options
Add a “Reset to Default” and live preview before applying a theme, ensuring users can experiment without committing.Writing & Composition Options:
Rich Formatting Toolbar
Expand formatting tools to match Outlook: font styles, sizes, colors, highlighting, indentation, and line spacing.Templates & Quick Parts
Provide reusable templates for common emails (business replies, meeting requests, festive greetings). Outlook’s “Quick Parts” feature is popular—Yahoo could add a simplified version.Smart Editor
Integrate grammar, clarity, and tone suggestions (similar to Microsoft Editor in Outlook). This would help users draft polished emails quickly.Draft Collaboration
Enable shared drafting or comments within emails—useful for teams before sending official communication.Signature Management
Allow multiple signatures (personal, business, casual) with easy switching, like Outlook’s signature options.Extra Enhancements
Focus Mode
A distraction-free writing window that hides folders and ads while composing.AI-Powered Suggestions
Offer subject line suggestions, quick summaries, or reply drafts (with toggle to disable, respecting user choice).Accessibility Features
High-contrast themes, larger fonts, and voice-to-text integration for inclusive usability. -

Please give me the option to remove the panel on the right. The one that has starred or contacts. I really don't want that on my screen. Otherwise, I will stick to the old format as it gives me more room to read my mail. I have to strain to see the email anyway.

отсутствует выбор тем - только черное или белое, невозможно сделать плотный список заголовков, и вообще настроить все под себя. Минималисты пусть выбирают "базовый" режим!!! В режиме просмотра "по вертикали", который меня устраивает, заголовок письма в окне просмотра занимает практически все место, содержимое увидеть невозможно, там остаются несколько строк.
Самый отвратительный из всех интерфейсов почтовых ящиков, который я только знаю. Никогда бы не выбрал яху, если бы сейчас искал где создать ящик.

Hi,
the new Yahoo could be great,
but it's actually very SAD => dear developers did you try it ?EXAMPLES :
- FONT ATTRIBUTES like Bold ( + Emoji +... etc...) is constantly disappearing and with no reasons.
- Worse : once you find BOLD if you change the size of the font, bye bye to BOLD AGAIN.
- Right Click Menus have also disappeared, etc etc...
CONCLUSION :
- I like the new DARK LOOK,
- I don't like anything else... because because it feels like going back 10 years in the pastSo overall... and unfortunately : it's sad !
Please correct ?

Give the user the ability to select their choice of colors! Especially, with the Unread emails. In the Dark mode, it is hard to recognize the unread emails, thanks to its color selection.

I chose to remain with yahoo after so many years because , now with all these changes in you interviews, i am unable to even read my messages properly, . Everything is clumped up. The design is poor.
