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.

  1. Keep "reply", "reply all", "forward", "Read/Unread", "Star", "Move", "Delete" & "Spam" buttons positions static.

    In the latest edition of the Yahoo mail, the "reply all" button has been made conditional where it appears or disappears based on whether the email chain has one or more persons on it. When this happens, the location of the delete and spam buttons to move. Previously, I would keep my mouse on the delete button and keep clicking on it as I am going down my emails. Now, when the "reply all" button disappears, the spam button shifts to the location where the delete button used to be. And unintentionally, I end up marking the email as spam…

  2. Conversation View

    Reading and responding to emails within a chain is almost entirely unusable. You don't need to include the entire chain of responses with every reply it makes is so confusing and unreadable.

    The Reply to All button is not visible/present in the tool bar at the top of the email nor at the bottom of the email.

  6. Resize attached image size option LOST

    New Yahoo update has lost the ability to resize contained images. This is in emails that I am trying to forward. Previously you could hover of the top right corner and an image size option would appear. I will not be saving each image and individually resize each one and then doing re-attach. Not an option. Most of my emails that I send have this issue!!

  7. Multiple email forwarding

    Select multiple emails to be forwarded, rather than ONE AT AT TIME!...
    Very time consuming, particularly for those of us who use yahoo for both work and private purposes.

  9. ALIAS - To be able to see, which alias was email send to, on first sight

    Hello,
    when I open received email, in old version I was able to see immediately, which of my aliases was email sent to. Now, I dont see it. I miss this feature.
    When replying to email, I dont see alias, neither. I have to click on "From" to see and pick up alias, I want to use.
    Also in old version, when replying to email, alias, to which was original mail sent, was used automatically. Now the primary user name is used by default, so I have to always check "From" and set it accordingly.
    Using aliases was great feature,…

  10. Put the cursor in the "To" field when forwarding an eamil

    When you forward an email, the cursor used to be placed in the To field by default.

    Now it's placed in the body, leaving the To field empty.

    Stop that!

  11. Reviewing attachments before sending email

    When responding to an email and you decide to view an included attachment first and then go to close the attachment, instead of yahoo mail taking you back to the draft you're currently working on, it takes you to the person's email message beforehand and you have to go back to drafts to locate the email you were currently working on.

    Then the close tabs option should be on the left not on the far right. When printing a blank page prints then the actual email as page 2.

    Also, please add the ability to mark the email unread while…

  12. Move "Reply" and "Forward" to top of email reading screen

    Move the "Reply" and "Forward" buttons from the bottom of the email reading screen to the top with the other action items. With actions at the top and Reply & Forward at the bottom, too much screen real estate is used and you can only see a sliver of the message you are trying to read. Not all screens are large! Thanks!

  14. layout

    The new reply/forward buttons are permanently taking up half of the screen on opening a post. It's causing people to see only a single line of the email.

  15. Ability to forward a message so that it still looks like the original

    Not sure WTF happened, but when using a browser, my messages forwarded become plain text and lose all images and links etc. and show only text and no pictures. WHY THE F*CK is it like this now . . . BUT IT'S NORMAL WHEN USING THE PHONE APP!?!?! It's almost like HTML is enabled for the app but CAN'T BE ENABLED when using a browser. WHY?!?!?

  17. Can't change email address in reply emails

    I just had an email that I was replying to, and I wanted to change my outgoing email account, but I could find no way to do this. I had to copy the email text, open a new outgoing email, and then change the email. It seems like an easy fix if you could add a way to change the outgoing email address in the reply area.

  18. UI / Recipients

    After opening an Email in the Inbox, it could be shown more clearly whether the user is the only recipient or whether the message was addressed to others as well. That way, it would easier to see the recipients and choose the appropriate reply method. Currently, it shows only in small greyed out font "and one other". Thanks!

  19. Enable emails grouped by conversation Reply function for any email in the group rather than the latest email received.

    I have email grouped by conversation. When an email is sent to multiple addresses, and one or more of these have replied to the original email, I often struggle to reply to the original email. The Reply function selects the latest reply address to send my reply to instead of the original email. If I 'pop out' the original email, the Reply function is not available. Is there a solution to this frustrating 'feature'?

  20. Email addresses in the "to" field are now not visible under the contact name - need to fix asap

    There is no way to click on the address and see the actual address. You can only see the name of the contact and there is no way to copy and paste an address. That is dysfunctional and disrupts regular email function -- critical issue that needs an immediate fix.
