Email view settings: Compact view
Thanks for the new interface. however, it would be great to continue having the compact / comfortable space options to view email. this feature seems to have been remove and it now takes more scrolls to view email at a glance

It is very very important to have the possibility to display the list of emails through different sizes => compact, normal, large (for instance) ?
On my side I like to have possibility to see a maximum of emails lines on my screen, and with this new version the number of emails displayed is very limited in my point of view. Its very frustrating and I have already thinking to move from Yahoo (which I was happy using since 25 years) to Gmail which gives this BASIC option !!! And I have used new Yahoo for just few hours. -

I dislike the new mail display, the emails are listed out so far apart i can only see about 4 of them instead of double that. Please add back the option for compact view of the spacing between emails

I am a paying Yahoo Mail Plus subscriber, and I strongly dislike the new desktop layout.
The new inbox uses far too much space and is much harder to scan than the previous Yahoo Mail. I have already turned off Inbox Categories and minimized the right-hand column, but there is no true compact/dense inbox option.
Please restore the ability to choose a compact inbox with tighter message spacing. Ideally, please also give users the option to use the previous Yahoo Mail interface.
Paying Mail Plus subscribers in particular should have MORE control over the appearance of their inbox, not less. Removing customization options from a paid product is extremely frustrating.
Please bring back compact inbox spacing and/or the previous layout.

Please bring back compact view for the Inbox. It stresses me out to have to scroll to see all my messages when there is wasted white space vertically. Also, I like to automatically see what the message history is when responding to an email. For now it is automatically hidden and requires and extra mouse click to see it. Please make this an optional setting.

One of the things I dislike about New Yahoo Mail is the amount of spacing between lines near the top of the page. Everything above the Message in message view and consistent with the other view selections. There's too much space between the lines, the cost of which is a smaller working area. The option for a "Compact Display" that reduces the space between lines would allow more screen real estate to Yahoo Mail content. Indeed, it would also allow use of tabs without reducing the working area of the app. It seems to me there was an adjustment in the old Yahoo Mail that allowed a tightened display of the inbox too. Bringing back this option would be an improvement. In short, anything that increases the size of the 'working' area of Yahoo Mail would be an improvement. You don't have to change the view for everyone, just allow a compact view for those who would like it. It might be interesting to collect information about user preferences with this option too. Thank you. Keep up the good work.

The reason I don't like the new yahoo email is it's far too spread out. I like seeing a hundred emails in the list at once. I now see 9. That's ridiculous! I chose compact. This is not compact.

viewing inbox (or other folders):
please make lines with emails much more narrow, if possible allow removal of avatar picture (or make it smaller), white space above and below text is very disturbing, it takes too much space and gives no information
it is important to see a lot of emails at the same time.
And font used for unread and read is not different enough. Please, use also some color : bold and blue (RGB: 0,0,255) for unread, black or other for read. Or allow a few different sets of fonts...
Make possible to set a star on the place where it appears (not only on the right side).
make possible to set "read" just by clicking on the line without opening the whole email (that takes too much time!)
make the window on the right (starred, contacts, more) taller! On desktop it should use the whole height!

The classic mail showed approx 30% more messages in one screen of the list. The new mail is wasteful of space.

The new uncluttered layout looks good. But there is a lot of blank space in the inbox email list. Could you increase the number of lines displayed by reducing the blank space between the items? Also remove the ads at the bottom, takes a lot of space and nobody looks at them anyway ;-)

1. make compact view really compact.
remove the space between mails
2. Allow labeling like they have in Gmail
3. remove the large AD box on the right
4. Allow third party addon such as cloud hq to rename subject line -

Rather than three lines per email, allow one or two as user prefers - I don't see this option anywhere in Settings

Between the search bar, the "tabs" bar, the actions toolbar, the subject line, and the From/To bar, I only have like four inches left to see the actual email itself. Some of those things can absolutely be on the same line. There is also way more blank, waisted space between the lines than necessary. Some people on larger screens might like it, but it would be nice to have a "condensed view" option.

I wish there were an option to choose between a normal view and a compact view, as the current layout feels too spaced out. Additionally, it would be great to have more theme options, including the ability to set a custom background picture, similar to what is available in Gmail.

Please enable a compact view of inbox. It takes up too much room when the emails are spaced so far apart.

Old Yahoo Mail allowed you to space messages apart further and customize how many lines of the message you could preview/see. Bring that back.

I've been using the old Yahoo email because the new one has too much spacing between the lines when viewing my list of emails, I'd like to be able to see more of my inbox without scrolling. A setting to allow us to enter a spacing value would be good.

Why don't implement a feature for viewing more messages ands folders in the same screen?? It could be useful to choose a more compact or bigger font size view for Yahoo mail.

Please either leave the current small-spacing list-view version of the inbox exactly as is, or make sure to incorporate that viewing option in the new version of the yahoo mail inbox.
