    The 'search' bar is inhibiting me from accessing the back arrow. Do I need to use a different browser? Or how do we move it so we can access the top portion of the page without being hindered?

    The search bar is constantly popping up over the other buttons, not allowing access to them. Fix it!
    Get rid of the Message deleted/Undo popup, or at least let me turn it off. Very annoying.
    I frankly hate this new interface. It operates like it was designed by a grade-schooler.

    Fix the fact that all of a sudden the "search your mail"; "go back to the old Yahoo Mail"; and "go ad-free" choices are covering and preventing use of the functions at the top of each email as you open it (back, reply, forward, star, folder, delete, spam, etc.)

    Hey, with the new mail there are some huge issues with navigation. I am in my emails, and the top bar is hidden by search, I cannot select mails and delete them all together. This is super annoying and killing my experience, which used to be good. Please,fix!

    For whatever reason the search bar moves down into my inbox area. It is blocking some of the buttons and I'm having to restart my email to back to my inbox area.

    I skim my email and if it is no important, I delete it. In your new email UI, the location of the delete icon (trash can) changes from one place to another depending on the email. Because of this, I sometimes click the wrong icon. This resulted in wrongly marking the email as spam. Can you please keep the position of the icons fixed. DO NOT SHIFT THEM AROUND!!!

    Sometimes when I use the search field at the top of the page, it pops down lower and covers the "toolbar" where the trash, spam, move, reply, forward, mark read/unread icons are, and I cannot access those icons. I must refresh the screen to get the search field back into its original position. This just started happening recently, which makes me think any recent programming changes may have affected the search field. Can it be made to stay in its proper position?

    Thank you for letting us know! We have seen this reported and we need some more info/help! Can you send us a video, a screenshot and browser info/version to oasis.mail.feedback@yahooinc.com? That would be super helpful to us as we cannot replicate the issue. We also recommend checking your window size. If you enlarge it, does this issue go away?

    When I press delete a pop up box appears that allows me to undo.

    This is good, except the pop up box covers the delete button from next email, so if I am going through my emails and deleting a bunch I have to delete, then x the box then delete the next message, maybe out the pop up elsehwere.

    I am on a laptop, and there are many times the bar that contains delete and spam goes under the search bar....and becomes unoperable. I recommend testing the app on many devices so you can see how bad it is.

  • Arun Tayal commented  ·   ·  Report

    There are times when I am not able to see the top bar icons like delete, move etc on selecting a message.
    Also the buttons /icons are not fully align on selection. When I keep my mouse pointer at center of icon, it doesn't get highlighted & on clicking it, it will not work

  • Warren Scheuerman commented  ·   ·  Report

    When in my mail i use magnification and once i choose a message to read and then go back to my list it is obscured by the search bar window. Please fix for people with accessibility issues.

  • Mario Reyes commented  ·   ·  Report

    Is not an idea. You have to fix this issue. As soon as you reply to an email the search box crashes into the top of the email header. There is no way you have not noticed it. Also, I can not scroll down more than 20 emails without it kicking me right back to the last email. Like if I need to find an old email from a few days ago I cant. It has been a pain.
