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.

    Hi Catherine, thanks for the feedback. Have you checked your Storage limits? We did launch new Storage guidelines. If you are over the storage number, you won't be able to send or receive emails.

    You can check by going to Settings > Manage Storage. Thanks!

    Hi Valeria, it would be super helpful to know what browser you are using and browser version. Then can you send us a video or a screenshot of the messed up file? Anything so we can try to replicate. Please send to mail.oasis.feedback@yahooinc.com.

  7. Keep the name associated with my email address from changing to an unknown name.

    There appears to be a glitch in the new Yahoo Mail system. When I compose and send an email, everything looks normal at first. However, when I later check the message in my Sent folder, the name associated with my email address has changed to an unknown name.

    I checked my account settings to verify that the display name had not been altered, and it still shows the correct name that I entered. Despite this, outgoing messages in my Sent folder continue to display an unfamiliar name attached to my email address.

    I have searched through the Help section but…

  8. There is no 'Save' button in Vacation Message settings

    I've tried the app, Google Chrome and Safari on my laptop and in none of them after I go through all steps is there a 'Save' button to click on so that my vacation message will appear. Why is that?

    Hi Jay, thanks for your feedback! Yes, there is no "Save" button, but instead we have the toggle on/off for vacation response. You turn it on and the vacation response will work til you toggle it off. Hope this helps!

    Hi there, you can archive the email without going back to the Inbox. You can do it right from reading the email (Message Read). When looking at the email, just click on the three dots above the email (...) and from there can Archive the email.

  11. High Importance

    There needs to be an option to send an email as High Importance. This feature is very helpful when sending an email or a response to someone's email so they see its urgent.

    Thanks

    Hi Laura, thanks for your feedback. We are working on adding a way for you to say a certain email or sender is Priority, so stay tuned. For now, you can move an email to a certain category. For example, if an impt email goes to the "offers" category, you can move it to "Primary."

  12. Still cannot find contacts in my contacts!

    I search for 'Peter' but it does not find peterdyounng

    I search Higgins and it find him and suggests peterdyoung and allows me to 'update' his email and add to contacts but still cant find him on his own.

    I search contacts, find the target, click the email address and it goes into the To: box. Search and find second address, select email address does not go into To: box but searches for all emails from that person instead! Inconsistent behaviour!

  14. Fix a text entry problem

    When composing an email I often have to reset the cursor position as it disappears from the body of the email and I can't enter any more text. I use Firefox as my browser so could there be a problem with it rather than Yahoo?

  18. Bring back a feature

    When composing a message and pasting in a graphic (in the text message area, not as an attachment), yahoo mail used to offer a feature where the user could click on the right corner of the graphic before the message was sent that allowed the user to change it to an attachment or make it smaller or remove it completely. It'd be great to bring that feature back. Also offer user a method to remove an image that he pasted into the text(again, before sending the message) if user decides they don't want to include an image before sending.

  19. When writing an email. You can't format the email for paragraphs, greetings, signoffs, or anything else. It's just one run-on sentence.Sucks

    Make the body of emails being sent formattable. The current one run-on sentence looks terrible, unprofessional, and makes a bad impression on the receiver. As is, I won't be using Yahoo Mail for much of anything slightly important. When the email can start looking like you have an education, instead of a four-year-old writing it, I'll return. For now, I'll see what "Gmail" offers.

  20. Paragraphs in mobile app

    Dear All,
    When replying to or composing a new message in Yahoo Mail mobile app all paragraphs are being removed and the message is displayed and sent like one long line. This is highly inconvenient, please fix this as soon as possible.
    Best regards

    Hi Thomas, this forum is only for Desktop feedback, not the apps! Can you let them know via their channels please? There is a feedback button in the app. Also, it would be helpful if you can mention whether you have Android or iOS? Thanks.
