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!

    Hi Ray, we recommend checking your Storage numbers. If you are over the storage threshold, you won't be able to send or receive emails. You can check by going to your Settings > Manage Storage. Thanks!

  4. I'm not happy with this e-mail program AT ALL! I don't like the way I get responses to my e-mails.

    When someone responds to my e-mail, I would prefer to see it come in as a new e-mail being highlighted.

    ALSO.......................where is my "address book"??????

    Hi Doris, thanks for your feedback! We did have unread as highlighted and read un-highlighted when we first launched the new design and everyone couldn't differentiate, so now we've added the purple dot and bolded the subject line. Our Community is way less confused and open rates is looking good, therefore we are no longer switching back. Very sorry!

  5. Redirect all emails to another service

    Create a simple method for me to automatically forward all of my emails to another service such as GMail. The new Yahoo mail is terrible to work with and I want out, but I have too many different pp nd contacts that still have my yahoo account as my primary contact. I prefer to deal with another service

  6. Show content when replying to an email

    I need to see peoples' emails when I'm replying to them so I make sure I have answered all of their questions. How can I see their emails without having to click the "show trimmed content" arrow every time? That's annoying. Please fix.

    We are bringing Compact View back. It's currently in a small bucket and if all goes well, we will be launching it to everyone.

    Unfortunately, there will be no reverting back to the old version. That one will be EOLed soon. Hope you can give the new layout a fair chance. Thanks!

  8. Mail box

    I am not receiving mails in my inbox for last 2-3 days. This was because of mail box being full. Now i Have purchased an additional 100 GB of space. Still I am not able to see the mail in my inbox for 2-3 days. Please look into it and resolve. Thanks

    Hi Sandeep, please check your other accounts! We've noticed a lot of our community has accidentally purchased the upgrade with the wrong account. So again, please make sure to check all your other accounts. Thanks!

  10. Move Archive to main toolbar on selected emails

    The two most common actions on an email are delete and archive. Why do we have Archive buried behind an extra click? There's plenty of room in the toolbar next to Move to add an archive button.

  13. Auto - Forwarding Emails to other Email address using filters

    While creating a certain filter.. we should be able to transfer the email to our another specific email address.
    sometimes getting changes done from sender .. get difficult and thus by creating such filters.. we can automatically forward such emails directly to specific email address..

  19. Reply should stop scrolling the textbox to where you are typing the reply

    When replying to an email, the textbox where you are writing a reply always scrolls to have the line where you are typing be at the top of the textbox. This makes it hard to write replies because you cannot see what you wrote before. A better approach is to leave the user decide how they want to scroll the message.

  20. Screen Bouncing when replying

    I do not have an idea to describe, I need help. Every time, with the new Yahoo, when I reply to the sender the screen bounces up and down as do the letters. It was fine over a week ago, what happened? Please get this fixed. I always have to copy and paste and reply from a new email so the screen doesn't bounce up and down and the letters. This does not happen with any other mail services.
