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.

    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!

  2. Yahoo Notpad

    Unable to download Notepad backup. Getting error Will be Right back.Engineer are working, then from where do we get back our data from. Our family most of them use yahoo account. Just waited for your technical issue to get resolved. Above all you 15th August deadline is also over, kindly extend the date & provide access to notes. Best if u could continue service.

    Hi Vishal, we thought this was already fixed, so we want to make sure you're still seeing this error message? Can you refresh your browser and if you are, please send us a screenshot of the error message to oasis.mail.feedback@yahooinc.com. Thanks!

  3. Please give us a chance to go back to the old yahoo, or at least recover our notes in the notepad

    The new Yahoo! Mail is horrible. I can't find my notes, the Help feature tells me to go to a place that does not exist, and I can't go back to the old Yahoo, not even to find my notes where they used to be. I understand the Notepad is going away, but removing it or making it impossible to retrieve is horrible! I absolutely HATE it! How about let us choose between the new and the old, at least until the Notepad is phased out? And now I need to sign in before posting. Yahoo is making things hard,…

    Hi Denise, if you are seeing the new layout, Notepad will be in the your top, right hand side. Next to Starred and Contacts, and above the ad. Just click on More and you'll see Notepad. Please see screenshot!

  4. What is the deal with streaks and points?

    Are the points collected for a reason, or is it just hype with no purpose?

    Hi Scott, thanks for asking! For now, it's for fun. A fun way to get rewarded for checking and organizing your emails on a daily basis. BUT soon we'll be planning to do more and make strong, more tangible incentives. So stay tuned! It's definitely been successful with our Mail Community!


  5. Mail settings

    I have a lot of folders and have to scroll down below them to find the MORE link to get to email settings. Since I use it rarely, I forget where it is and have to search all over the screen looking for it. Move MORE to the top of the screen as one of the links already there like y!mail+, HOME, or account avatar.

    Hi Richard, thanks for the feedback! We currently have no plans in moving Settings or More to a different location. These options were placed near the bottom because they were hardly if ever used in the old version. Sorry about that!

  6. Let me open notes from mail

    Where is the button/link to open notes (and calendar) in the new UI?
    At least for a Swede they are gone.
