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.

COMING SOON!

Drag and drop messages to folders - Just click and hold on an email message, then drag and drop that message into a different folder.

  2. Spam detection

    The spam detection agent is totally unintelligent. It keeps sending to the spam folder messages repeatedly marked as not spam. And provided the spam folder is hidden and there is no indication of the number of messages in the folder, the user has to go every single day to look for the folder and find if there are messages marked as spam. This is ridiculous for a paid email app. If this issue is not quickly fixed I'llI go back to a free and much more intelligent gmail account.

  5. Firefox Bug Update: Toolbar App Install Prompt Still Appears at Every Login (March 8, 2025)

    Bug Update: Firefox Bug of Toolbar app asking to be installed at every login still appears.

    I posted this before, back in December 2024, but it has still not been fixed so I am filing new Feedback on March 8, 2025. Please fix this so that the install toolbar app is removed from the New Yahoo Mail Inbox just like any other web browser.

  6. Improve the email search function

    There is an issue with the search function. When I try to use "Search your mail" for an email, I get an error message: An error occurred while trying to fetch the items in this list. Retry.

    I click Retry and receive the same message.

    This has been happening for months now. How can this be resolved?

  7. Inbox older than 12 months

    I have always kept some old emails in my Inbox because I refer to them frequently. Since the upgrade now emails older than 12 months are automatically removed from my inbox and deleted. WHY are you doing that?!?!? Please don't force me to Gmail.

  8. how to close email without going to the X

    Currently after reviewing an email I cannot get out of it without going to the top of the email and clicking the X in the upper right hand corner. The old version had the ability to go back to the inbox with a back arrow at the top left of the email.
