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!



TIPS:
Disable Inbox Categories (All, Primary, etc) - You can go back to having just ONE Inbox. Go to Settings > Inbox Categories.
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.
Sender's Email Address - You don't have to open the message to see the sender's email address. Just hover over the sender's name from your Inbox.
Sort By Sender - This is still a sorting option, but you must disable Conversation view under your Settings. Then you will see "Sender name"
Disable AI Summaries - Go to Settings > AI features > Toggle Off



COMING SOON!
Compact View - Small, Medium and Large views are coming soon!




**Please do NOT post about Account, Password, Login issues here. It will be deleted. Please go to help.yahoo.com.




Thank you! 💜

    Yes, we’ve introduced a new design to better support our community as needs, routines, and habits. We understand that adjustments like this can be challenging at first, and we appreciate your patience as well as your feedback. We hope you’ll spend some time with the new layout.

  3. Advanced Search -- keyword with other criteria is NOT AVAILABLE

    per Yahoo Help Team -- "Regrettably, the 'Keyword' option is no longer available in the advanced search for the new Yahoo Mail. We apologize that our current articles were misleading regarding this feature. I can see how that'd be useful, though".

    In New Yahoo Mail in the top search bar, click the Advanced Search icon. The search criteria of Keyword is NOT listed per Yahoo help screen. Hence I cannot do Search for multiple criteria per Yahoo help screen -- example ALONG with sender name, date range ++ Keyword as listed on Yahoo help page at
    https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN36721.html

    The best way to get rid of spam is to mark as spam, not delete or block! This helps with your spam filters and does exactly what blocking does, prevents that email from coming to your Inbox. So please keep marking as spam! It is free and part of regular Yahoo Mail. Thanks!

  8. Email Search doesn't work for email older than approximately 9 years

    Email Search doesn't work for email older than approximately 9 years - this has been a persistent problem that last for a long time, I'm just flagging it now as I was hoping it would be fixed with the new UI. It just doesn't work. For example, I can see email from "Kaggle" if I manually scroll to 2016 of before hand. If I search Kaggle onyl email up to October 2017 are shown though.

  9. search SPAM

    I can not search SPAM.

    I get MANY spam emails from
    atlantaoffre.com
    clouddaelsoffre.pro

    Each email says:
    ✔ This message is from a trusted sender.

    I've created filters for these domains, but I still get SPAM from them.

  15. blackmailing users

    I think that it is horrible that you are blackmailing loyal users to suddenly have to buy storage space because you decided to cut your storage limit from 1tb to 2gb a drop of 98% I have used yahoo mail for over 20 years and I have 68gb in my account there is no way I can magically remove over 66gb. I can see if you do that policy going forward but forcing loyal customers to do mass deletions or stop receiving mail is pretty much just extortion!!

  18. Provide a function to sort mails from the largest to the smallest

    My email chineselanguagetutor@yahoo.com was registered more than 20 years ago. I cannot find a function to sort mails from the largest to the smallest in size. It would be great if you can provide the function.

  19. 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.
