Go back to previous layout
everything looks the same and it is hard to distinguish between the emails. When I hit a check box the whole column moves and is extremely annoying.
This is the worst email experience that I have ever had.

I truly hate the newest layout. If I wanted the look and feel of outlook I would use outlook. I think the classic look is the best and want to be able to revert to it. I don't and won't use any of the new features that you are trying to push onto users. This is personal email and I don't use it for business. If you are going to stay this way I will have to find a new email service that will meet my needs. I might just use Thunderbird and download all the messages to it. Sorry but the new looks you have tried suck for me. I want to switch back to the classic look now.

Yahoo has been my email provider for over 30 years. This new interface is stupid and you can't even tell easily what mail has been read or not or when it was delivered.
it will take me twice as long to check my email now because the inbox is no longer designed to make it easy and now you have to double and triple check to figure what is new mail, old mail, has been read or not and what day and what time.
Total disaster and I am beyond aggravated that after all these years I may have to switch email providers -

IF I wanted Gmail I would use my gmail account. I want the classic Yahoo view and that is how I want it to look. I want Yahoo.
How do I switch back. I did not want this look anyway.

DIFFICULT TO VIEW PREVIOUS EMAILS ON A STRING OF EMAILS TO SAME RECEIVER. SO FRUSTRATING 'GO BACK TO THE OLD EMAIL FROM A MONTH AGO. NOW WHEN EMAIL GOES OT FOR SAME SUBJECT, HAVE TO KEEP WRITING THE SDAME THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN. NOT HAPPY FRUSTRATED

Your statement:
"COME HERE FOR THE LATEST UPDATES.""Those asking about going back to the old version. Unfortunately, if you do not see the "Go Back" button you cannot go back. We really hope you'll try the new experience! Thanks!"
is absolutely STUPID. Whoever decided this option needs to be fired! I have been using the old style for its simplicity for decades. But yet you insist on imposing the new style FOR ABSOLUTELY NO REASON.
I am exploring other mail options.

New is slower, harder to read, and just worse. Give us classic yahoo mail back!

go back to the original email. I hate this new look. Hard to figure out, so leave my email alone!!!
It wasn't broke so it didn't need to be fixed.

return it to the original or give the option to return it to the original classic or basic.

The new email is too resource demanding. I like a page at a time rather than scroll.

Here's an idea for you. Open up a websearch (your choice) and type in "New Yahoo mail interface is great" then try "New Yahoo mail interface is terrible". That will tell you everything you need to know about the New Yahoo Mail. The new interface is terrible. Bring back the Yahoo Basic Mail.

Give us back the basic mail interface. This new interface is hot garbage. It gives no real benefits for PC users and strips useful features that basic had.
In basic I could open several emails in new tabs (using mousewheel clicks) and reference them while working and composing email. Now with the new interface you cannot do that. The "multi tasking tabs" feature is not sufficient. The only real solution is to open a new browser tab of the inbox for each email I need to reference and navigate to that email. This is sub-optimal.
The icons next to the sender names are really distracting. They are not consistent even from the same sender. It's very apparent when you sort by sender. Some icons are a company logo, some are just initials in a colored circle but the color of the circles are not even consistent. It's garbage. I can read. I'm not an infant. I don't need nor want pictures to identify the sender.
And what's up with the "achievements" who the **** is this for? If I wanted "achievements" I would fire up the xbox or go on STEAM. Seriously this is email not Fortnite or Call of Duty.
There are more things I don't like about the new interface but these are some of the big ones. It's almost as if whomever greenlighted theses changes doesn't actually use it or they are so simpleminded that they are content with pictures and achievements.
You're probably saying to yourself "this is a lot of complaining with no ideas or fixes" but if you think hard you will see what the idea/fix is. Give us back the option to use the basic mail interface. It was perfect. It was fast, intuitive, easy to use, looked cleaner, there was nothing wrong with it.
