New Yahoo Mail


Welcome to the new Yahoo Mail Desktop experience! This is a place for you to help shape the redesign. We review the most popular, feasible ideas from this forum to make positive changes to your Yahoo Mail.


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! 


WHAT'S NEW?
AI Summaries - Ability to disable. Go to Settings > AI Features > Toggle Off
Reply/Forward Icons - You can see the arrow icons when you've replied or forwarded to a message.
Up/Down Arrow, Scrolls Now - In full message view, not preview pane.
Sender's Email Address - You don't have to open the email to see the sender's email address. Just hover over the sender's name from your Inbox. 
Search Results Will Show Folder - Now when you do a search, where the emails are located will show up.


COMING SOON!
Total Number of Emails - See total number and not just unread messages.
Inbox Categories - Default to "All" category instead of always Priority.

TIPS:
Keep Folders Expanded - First expand left hand column by hovering on Inbox edge until you see Double Arrows. Then a drop down will show up next to Folders. 
Bulk Delete - Click on a checkbox from your Inbox and a new checkbox will appear at the top. From there you can Select All and Delete All.
Drag and drop messages to folders - Just click and hold on an email message, then drag and drop that message into a different folder.

  1. Priority is flawed!

    I missed three important emails today because I didn't realize Priority was selected instead of all. Not sure how to change emails so the ones that I want are priority.

    I prefer the old Yahoo mail.

  2. How do you set mail to view "All" mail not "Priority" mail?

    How do you have "All" mail appear rather than "Priority"? I always want to see all my mail.

  3. Please stop shoving your new "features" down my throat!!! So annoying!! I don't need you second guessing what I want to

    Please stop shoving your new "features" down my throat!!! So annoying!! I don't need you second guessing what I want to look at. The default in the inbox now that you forced me into the new version is "Priority" - I want "All" to be shown. Please stop using the AI hammer to hit on anything that looks remotely like a nail!

  8. Take away priority inbox and AI features

    i hate the new layout of what the email looks like on the web and how it tries to separate priority emails for me, its always wrong and makes me miss emails that are actually important.

  9. Inbox Categories? No thank you.

    Hey Yahoo, I'm really disappointed at the recent inclusion of Inbox Categories - I avoid other mail servers specifically because of these. If you're really intent on implementing them, I'd like an opt-out setting where they don't appear in my inbox. This is not conducive to the way I use my inbox and represents an unwelcome change making my email noticeably harder on every visit, especially on mobile.

    Have been very happy with your service for a long time, and am disappointed to see you just replicating your larger competitors.

  10. Eliminate synopsis of personal email

    Basically, by offering an option to return to the previous version! I read, where you have suggested to try it. I have, and it is terrible. I have and I don't like several things about it...1. the inbox is too cluttered, and the shadowy layout used for read mail is difficult for me to read. 2. The AI synopsis of my incoming personal email. Even though I realize there is no real privacy online, I consider this intrusive, unnecessary for personal mail, and a gross invasion of my privacy. Remember, "new and improved" isn't always better. Sometimes, as in this…

  11. Your priorities aren't my priorities

    Please change the default - you have no idea what my priorities are, and in most cases you're wrong. After a couple weeks, I still despise this new layout.

  13. priority

    Any way to STOP this from trying to guess what I consider a priority? Or at least make the software default to "ALL". Seriously annoying that it flips back to Priority EVERY time I do anything.

  17. Yahoo email is turning into a real menace.

    Yahoo email is turning into a real menace. I have no reason to ever go to Offers, Social or Newsletters. But when I do I find hordes of emails that should be in my inbox, yet I have no way of moving them there from these three totally superfluous imposed without my agreement folders. This is simply Automated Idiocy. I wonder when Karma will strike.

  18. Stop sorting my email into categories

    Get rid of this. I didn't ask for this, I don't want it, and there is no way for me to turn it off. I do not want my email separated into categories, I am not a child who needs someone to hold their hand.

  20. receiving emails to to my account

    I think it would be perfect if I could receive same emails to my account for both pc browser and app in android phone. Now it seems that I don't receive same emails to my pc using yahoo via chrome browser.

    Just an idea
