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.

Unfortunately, you cannot revert back. We are only making the new one better. We know change is frustrating and hard but we really hope you'll give the new layout a fair chance.


WHAT'S NEW:
Calendar - We moved it from under "More" on the right hand side to it's own icon. Still on the right hand side, but it's now the first icon next to Starred and Contacts.

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! 💜

  1. COMPOSING an e-mail

    Composing and reading an email is now much less clear. If you add multiple recipients, they aren't visible unless you click on them—but then they hide again, which is also confusing. Attachments are too big and ugly.

  2. STOP CHANGING THE EMAIL

    For me yahoo had a superior email being the basic email. Don't force your stupid changes on everyone. If I wanted something different then I would have gone to your competitor and got a new email. You keep making these changes that most of us do not want. It is not more efficient or helps us but makes things more difficult with less needed functions as in the past. Stop screwing up something that was good !!

  4. Post as image

    I can no longer attach files, and then select "Post as Image" to have the image shown, rather than be an attachment at the bottom of the page. Please resurrect this, as I could previously send an images, with a description of each image beneath.

  5. Turn Off the Keyboard Shortcuts

    Turn off the keyboard shortcuts in the new Yahoo Mail Plus. Who asked for these? Especially any shortcut using the 'Shift' key. Who thought it would be a good idea to implement a shortcut with the shift key? I can't write one sentence in the new Yahoo Mail Plus without being bounced around to another mailbox or my email doing odd things.

  6. Attach from recent emails

    Where is Attach from Recent Emails? I use that often to attach photos to friends that I have emailed to myself. Now it's not there anymore. Now I have to save the photo to a file on my computer so I can access that to attach to email. That's an extra step for me.

  7. Thumbnail Vimeo

    How to Fix It

    1. Check Yahoo Mail Format: Ensure your draft is written in Rich Text mode rather than plain text so images are allowed to render.
    2. Verify Vimeo Privacy: Go to your video settings on Vimeo and make sure the video privacy is set to Public and not restricted.
    3. Use Direct Image Links: Instead of relying on automatic iframe or script-based video embeds (which most email clients strip out for security), generate a static thumbnail image or animated GIF through Vimeo's email embed tool and hyperlink the image directly to your Vimeo video URL.

  8. Message area loses focus when editing in draft folder

    More of a bug actually.
    Started a reply. Went to draft folder to continue it. Started typing. Paused to think a couple times. Or maybe it was the ads rotating.
    But the text focus was lost (moved to message list I believe)

  9. Fix line Spacing Default to Single

    Line spacing is defaulted to 1.1 or 1.2 per line, and my emails look like a college term paper. There is no way to change the default line spacing. It's gets worse as emails are forwarded/replied to because the line spacing just continues to grow. It looks really stupid to have line breaks that are as big as spaces between paragraphs. If the absurdity continues we will eventually be reduced to using emojis like the ancient egyptians.

  10. How do we print from a draft message

    It would be helpful if there was a PRINT icon/option on draft messages. I can print the whole page with CNTL+P but I only want to print the draft message to review offline and make changes/improvements.

  11. Return the Tab functionality.

    Every time I hit the tab for proper punctuation it changes fields and messes up my email. Tab is a function necessary to write emails and the "new and ********* Yahoo" uses it to change tabs on the email so every time I hit it , it changes to the "send" button. Some times I accidently hit the wrong button and it sends the partial email. Did I mention how much I HATE, no how much I VICERALLY HATE the new yahoo?

  12. New emails

    In the old Yahoo Mail format when I would send a URL link, it would typically show the title and a small picture of the link, not just the URL link. What option do I take to make it do that again.. it was very helpful to the people I would send things to. Now it only shows the URL..

  13. Copy & Paste

    I use excel spreadsheets to send my work schedule to my staff. When I copy and paste the schedule into the body of the email, it has many blank boxes. This didn't happen in the previous, and MUCH BETTER, version. Can you fix this issue?

  16. give the capability of adding photos inserted into the body of the email to either large or small - as it was before!!!!!!!

    In the previous mail version, you could insert photos into the body of an email and choose to make it smaller. In this new version, there is no option! Please fix as soon as possible.

  17. Draft saved loses its formatting

    I saved an email thread in drafts. When I came back to it, all formatting was lost and the text was a big smashed together glob of text. No carriage returns were respected.
