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. Mail problem

    Hello,

    I’m using a Galaxy Tab A (8.0", 2019).

    Ever since you changed the layout of Yahoo Mail, I’ve been unable to compose a message.

    I can enter a recipient,b

    and I can also enter a subject for the email,

    but I can’t get the cursor into the message window.

    I’ve already reinstalled the app, but that hasn’t solved the problem.

    Do you have a solution?

    Kind regards,

    Jan Scheppers

  2. Inbox view and other UI complaints

    Windows 10 user
    1. Compact view is not available. When?
    2. IN the web version the text for the mail I am reading is restricted to about 20% of the screen size, most of which is effectively empty with a rew controls and subwindows for rarely used functions. Seems like reading mail is most important.
    3. I really want a back button. Everyone using Windows10 should have it
    4. In general, I object to radical interface changes to apps that are perfectly serviceable as is !!!

  3. pourquoi toujours en anglais

    avec le nouveau yahoo mail, tous les mails de yahoo sont en anglais et ne peuvent être traduits. Comme par exemple cette page où seuls les champs à remplir du formulaire sont dans ma langue mais pas le reste. Curieux, non ?

  4. Restore the permanent display of all connected mailboxes and their individual unread email counts in the left sidebar.

    I am very disappointed with the redesigned Yahoo Mail interface.

    Previously, I could see all five of my connected email accounts in the left sidebar, together with the number of unread emails for each account. This allowed me to monitor incoming emails across all my mailboxes at a glance.

    With the new interface, the individual mailboxes and their unread counts are hidden unless I move my cursor over the mailbox switcher.

    This is inconvenient, inefficient, and a significant step backwards in usability, especially for users who manage multiple email accounts for business purposes.

    I strongly request that Yahoo restore the…

  5. Clean it up

    The new Yahoo look is way too busy and complicated. I absolutely hate it. Please simplify so it is not so confusing. The whole look is not an easy look. It's MESSY. Please clean it up. Thank-you, Michele

    Dobrý den, nový vzhled je otřesný, mohu se zeptat, kde je možné vrátit se k původnímu vzhledu a pokud to možné není, zda by nešla možnost přidat? Děkuji!

  7. Show the other folders on the main screen

    Not showing my other folders on the main screen requires me to do an extra click to show them and then choose the folder to send my message to. Before, I could easily drag emails to my folders on the left side of the screen to organize them without all the extra clicks.. I don't need a minimalist Home interface at the expense of extra clicks to show things I want to see. It makes it even more tedious.

  11. URGENT! _ Fix the meeting invite issue

    With the new version of inbox I lost the ability to see the meeting details and ability to respond with Yes or No attendance. I now have a link for the Teams meeting but have no idea what time, what day and who are attendants. I also unable to reply to confirm my attendance. These features are very important. If you are unable to fixt it within few days I will have to switch to other mailbox providers.

  13. Urgent recovery of my missing contact lists

    Since Yahoo Mail automatically switched to its new version, all the contact distribution lists I had previously created and used regularly in my account, bridgecoruna@yahoo.es, have disappeared.

    These lists contained numerous email addresses, carefully organized into groups over several years, which I use to communicate with bridge players and clubs and to organize tournaments and activities.

    The individual contacts may still exist, but I can no longer find or access my previously created distribution lists.

    I did not request or authorize this change, and I was not warned that my lists could disappear.

    I am not asking to create…

  16. Leave it alone

    I was reading my emails, suddenly the background went to dark and the text was white, I had not done anything with the keyboard...it just did it. I went in and the setting was still on light and not dark, I clicked on light again anyway but nothing changed. So WTF is going on, I am 78 and not technical minded, fix my Yahoo Mail, I am not amused.

    It seems to be increasing but I really hate it. Isn't there a method to prevent the spams for *? Every day I have to see these terms and it is just getting to be too much. what is the big deal blocking these terms - you can do it on your comments pages. why not on my spam? If these posts have such terms, can't they just automatically be blocked. I am really tired of over twenty years having to see "" and "**" every single day . . . every single day. . . every…

  20. stop giving it a makeover and put in a block function that actually blocks

    I didn't ask for a 'new look and feel' I don't want a new look and feel. Why are you forcing this on users? And why aren't you using your resources to do something useful, like make block function that blocks. I've only been asking for that for 10 years or so.
