Right Side Panel (Contacts, Starred, Etc)
There should be a way to remove the contact box on the right. This feature is useful when two windows (one is yahoomail) are displayed side-by-side. During these situations, window real estate is valuable.

Please take the starred view off. I have Yahoo Plus and pay a yearly fee. If there is a way to do it now, please let me know how. I like to see a full PC page of the beginning of the incoming emails. It makes it easier to judge if it's spam without opening it. Anything that is in the "starred" "Contacts" and "More" dropdown could be put in the 9 dots to the right of my profile picture for me to click on and go to what I need. I would much rather have the full space to read the first lines of the incoming emails.

How do you permanently disable this feature (Starred and contacts on the right side) as it encroaches on my emails list and I have 0 use for it? I wouldn't mind keeping it if it had a calendar that would come up there but the calendar only comes up in a new tab. Totally dysfunctional from the users standpoint

How can I remove the right-hand column????
This column, which lists starred items, is not necessary.
There is an option to filter the primary message list to show only starred items. That option appears in the vertical set of icons along the left side of the screen. As a result, there is no reason to take up 25% of the screen with the column that appears on the right side of the screen.
If there is some setting that allows that column to be closed/removed, I've not been able to find it. -

I have switched to New Yahoo Mail and I have a massive area of blank unused space on the right hand area of my browser screen doing nothing, but my message preview window is unreadable without scrolling right and left. I cannot switch back to classic as you have taken away the option to revert back as the option does not appear (why?). If you cannot fix this soon and allow the right hand message window to expand to cover the full right hand of the screen I will stop using Yahoo mail completely after many many years.

Van the right bar (starred or contacts) be allowed to be either hidden or at least minimized? Never used by me, and cuts off the right edge of some emails.

Remove third column containing the header "Starred, Contacts, More"

Please give an option to remove the starred/contacts/calendar panel on the right side of the new mail layout. It is wasted screen real estate and makes the interface far less useful. Thanks.

It appears that the user is able to resize the width of the left hand column that lists all of the emails. It would be great if the user could resize the width of the actual email message box and the starred, contact more (far right column) to better utilize the blank space between these two areas.

I don't need to see the column on the right, which included "Starred". I would rather see the inbox all the way to the right of the screen. The extra column is useless to me.

Please restore the ability to click the star button back on the left side! It's killing my wrist to move across the screen like this.

The panel to the right of the email.....that should be removable completely so that email can span the whole page...There is too much going on and its not useful. If others want it, great, but i have tried to find a way to remove it and can not.

Please make it so that the Starred column remains closed.

I've had my mailbox setup with only 2 columns: All the folders on the left and all the emails on the right. With this new version, there is now a third column to the right of my emails and none of your layouts remove it. It'll just stay empty for my needs so it would be better if I could just remove it. If not, I'll go back to using the old yahoo mail for as long as I can.

Think section that you see the emails and the preview on the right should be wider and the box showing the ads takes up too much space. Preference is not to see the ads at all! Also can the option to filer or sort the emails by sender be made available so to be able to group relevant emails together? Makes it easier to manage

I like that has a Plus subscriber I can "minimize" the right hand column, but how do I lock it to minimized? If I refresh the page, or open it new tomorrow, it will once again be "maximized/open" and thus using screen real estate I prefer to have for my mail list.

Minimizing the Starred/contacts/more Box in view/layout setting: SInce I am a Yahoo Plus customer, I can contract the expanded starred/contacts/more box when I initially open desktop Yahoo mail. It would be nice to the able to save that layout/view in settings instead of having to do that every time.

How do I get rid of the starred messages box on the right? This is a waste of space, I just want to be able to look at my messages, and a quarter of the screen is now taken up by something I can't get rid of. This is terrible.

Is there any way to get rid of the right panel?
The right panel is completely useless to me and only takes up space that could be better used for expanding the preview pane. -

Would like to close the starred/contact section, so the email content in the layout can be wider to read it easier, but I don't see any option for that.
