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!

  1. Wrong sender name displayed on emails in Yahoo Mail

    Yahoo Mail is displaying an incorrect and completely unknown person's name on an email I sent as a reply. The message displays “Savanah Gleason,” but my name is Laura Dilworth. I do not know anyone named Savanah Gleason.

    I verified that my Yahoo account name, mailbox settings, and iPhone mail settings all correctly show Laura Dilworth. I also checked the raw message headers, which correctly identify the sender as Laura Dilworth. The Yahoo Mail app also displays the message correctly as Laura Dilworth.

    However, New Yahoo Mail on the web displays “Savanah Gleason” for this message, including when accessed in…

    The Yahoo Mail team can help with issues in the product or in the app. For anything related to account or sign in issues, our Customer Care team handles that since they have the tools to help. They are separate from us! Hope that clarifies. Thanks.

  2. Unscribe JUNK SPAM emails

    It's NO surprise YAHOO to make money let TOO many Junk emails / SPAMs get through into Inbox. Of late when we click to Unsubscribe get an error message below;

    "Secure Connection Failed

    An error occurred during a connection to www.athomedaily.com. SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length. "

    All I input is "CLICK" on unsubscribe and certainly NO text input providing even a single character input.

    Why we should get an ERROR. It didn't happen with gmail?

    When will YAHOO catch-up with gmail and other in IMPROVING SPAM Filtering?

  3. Allow me to manage my Emails...

    I use my cbstevek@yahoo.com mail as my primary Email. I also use cbstevek@hotmail.com as my junk Email. I generally will set up a new account to send to hotmail.com and then for ones that are important, I forward them to myself at yahoo where I have extensive rules and folders.

    I recently made a change to move my hotmail.com application out of my regular Email client and look at it either online or in the app. This seems to be working, except for the following problem (which pretty much breaks everything about what I want to do).

    I am getting…

  4. Correct Fault With Incoming Links

    On incoming emails I'm finding some of the links not live. It seems like the markdown syntax is being removed/altered so links are not live. I have tried other types of email account (to make sure the error isn't in the originating end) and the links always arrive fully functioning. They are only failing when sent to Yahoo accounts.

  5. Moving messages from Sent box to inbox

    For some reason, yahoo mail has changed in the last week or so. Used to be I could send a message to someone, and then move that sent message back to my inbox so I could remind myself if the person didn't respond. Now when moving that message, it says that it "moved to primary", but it's not there.

    Also yesterday I encountered another new situation that is a change. An incoming messsage dropped into the spam folder that I didn't want to be spam. When I try to move it to the inbox, it will not move there.

  7. Please see my message

    You took away a tool that worked for me and I now have a provided that is frustrating and almost useless to me. I tried your phone numbers but of course that was also a trick, nothing more than a robot. Sadly I need a REAL person to help so if possible please reply with an appropriate number.

  8. Replying to a message requires Send button to be pressed twice

    When replying to a message, the Reply button needs to be pressed twice for the message to be sent. The first press on the button returns the message textbox to the top of the message. The second press sends the message. This is on a latest Firefox, macos.

  10. Please enable free mail forwarding

    Please enable free mail forwarding like we used to have.

    I'm not going to pay to send Yahoo mails to another email provider. You can keep all of my old data and harvest that for money. 25 years of emails should be worth something.

  12. Problem

    We have a problem with yahoo mail. When we go to "reply" e-mail is sent before we finish. The same happens when we attach document. We keep sending to people half-finished e-mails. Yesterday receiver did not even receive our e-mails. Please ADVISE!
