Welcome. How can we improve the New Yahoo Mail?

← New Yahoo Mail

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 hate this new version. Everything is hard to find and understand. You are making me want to use gmail now as my main email. Thanks

  • Brian S Sloane commented  ·   ·  Report

    There is no need for the added right panel that you can't close down!

  • Scott Carter commented  ·   ·  Report

    This version is horrible!!!!!!!! Where is classic, now!

  • R Mitchell commented  ·   ·  Report

    I do not like the new version, I agree this new version is ****. There was a reason I used yahoo email, and you just got rid of one of the few reasons.

  • Randall C Cremer commented  ·   ·  Report

    Unfortunately they've wasted so much money on this lousy redesign that they won't bring back the Classic version or give users the option of reverting to the classic version, because they would look stupid for wasting so much money on a failed redesign. Apparently, its much easier to tell users, 'you may hate it, but deal with it!'

    Not all change is bad... not all change is good either. And this change most certainly isn't good. Its turned a relatively plain but navigatable e-mail setup into one giant pile of disorganized mess.

    And honestly, I don't care to have some AI software scanning e-mails and messages and giving me its interpretation. I would guess AI incorporation is what is supposed to make this new Yahoo mail so f-ing wonderful to the people who forced it upon its users.

    Wheres the search bar? Why doesnt the year show up? I cant find a receipt I need to print from 2024. GGRRR! All I get is Feb and March from this year. I need last year!

    I can't even figure out how to get it to stay on all instead of priority. It keeps changing back to priority.

  • Natalie Goldberger commented  ·   ·  Report

    Yep!! They ended basic email today. Can't even find it as an option. How nice was that!?! Just out of the blue with no heads up...GONE! I was planning on going on a walk today and enjoying some sunshine after a long day, but nope...found out at that time that Yahoo basic was now gone so I was then fighting to try and find it again, setup a yahoo appearance/display that works for me...can't be done! So then I spent about 2 hours setting up a new Proton Mail account and forwarding option from Yahoo to Proton. Yep. That was my fun 2-3 hr evening thanks to Yahoo!

  • Kortni Lee commented  ·   ·  Report

    This version Sucks! How do you even sort? Why isn't the Unread sort option at the top? Why do you get to choose what's a "priority" email? That's for me to decide. I've literally had this email address since 1999 and if you don't restore the old format likely going to have to switch to Gmail for good. Listen to your users!

    These Yahoo heads are such clowns! They pushed this awful new version on us with no prior testing and feedback. They clearly don't respect us at all. I just signed up for Proton Mail today. Bye bye, Yahoo!! I have been with Yahoo for 30+ years. Done! I would have paid $5/month to stay with the old version. Such idiots! Also, Proton Mail has many appearance styles to pick from, Yahoo just has one! How hard would it be to give us options for appearance vs just all black and grey/white. The grey is a total disaster! Can barely read the emails with grey background and black font. So dumb. How about black/white...make it as easy as possible to read the text. All of us spend way too much time already on the computer and you want to make emails even harder to read and process?? Grey/Black?? lol. While you are at it, why don't you also include navy/black and light grey/white as options. Ridiculous. I am straining my eyes to read every email heading I now receive. Ughhhh!!

    I'm missing important emails because of this unnecessary and horrendous change.

  • Aeon commented  ·   ·  Report

    I know I have heard that yahoo is trying to reduce the number of users by making people deal with the horrible new design but I'm just asking anyways because I really want to keep using yahoo. I've been here for a long long time and always considered myself loyal to yahoo mail but I'd really like to be able to use the old lay out at least for a little bit if that's okay?

  • Terry Teeters commented  ·   ·  Report

    Basic email is no longer available to me and I contacted Yahoo to troubleshoot this matter. The support technician quickly explained to me that basic email was no longer available. WHY? The last time I had basic email, there was an option in the upper right hand corner of my email page to 'Go back to the old Yahoo Mail'. I selected that option and provided feedback for why I did not want the new Yahoo mail. Upon doing this, no changes were made and I was stuck with the new Yahoo Mail. I have to ask why feedback is even an option if you wont allow me to change back. I do not like change and this change is very frustrating. Please restore the old Yahoo Mail to my page!!!!!! This new Yahoo Mail is a steaming pile of excrement! Get a clue Yahoo! On another note, I'm glad thousands of people feel the same way! If someone wanted to get through just messages left today, they'd be busy! WAKE UP!!!!!

    So a friend of mine knows someone who used to until very recently, worked at Yahoo. The answer to why they're doing this is because they're trying to reduce the number of users. They have too many users and this is a way for the company to downsize (server storage space is expensive) without making an announcement (it's bad PR) or deleting peoples emails(also bad PR). This is a way to get people to voluntarily leave. By doing that they can downsize, cut costs without anyone knowing, or at least knowing it was intentional.

    Similar reason they got rid of Yahoo Answers and police comments.

    How do I get back to the OLD version??? This new one SUCKS!!!!!!

  • Toowa Toowa commented  ·   ·  Report

    So many people LIKE the old version, its layout.... Why change a popular UI, why change a likeable and successful product? Why replace what is good, with what is ****? Get a frackin clue.
