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. New Email Search is Too Limiting

    Give me back the old version. This version has a Search that is limited. I used the option "Has the words" or whatever it was called, often, but now finding something is much harder and time consuming.

  2. You listened to feedback about new look, thanks

    Going back a year or year-and-half ago, Yahoo was trying to get people to switch to the new view for email, but back then, it was horrible. I gave feedback several times, mainly about the "read" vs "unread" being horrible (grey shade making page unreadable), and the waste of real estate (in list mode, you could only see a few words of the mail's subject line, vs the classic mode which showed much more). The right sidebar for ads was way too big back then, like 50% bigger than classic.
    Now that we are being forced to switch over, I…

  3. Get the ads out of the middle of my emails.

    Put them at the end of the emails. They are distracting and they slow down my progress during the hours I need to work effiiently.

  5. email

    Hi

    Your new email design is so painful. why change the user interface. i use this for work. to start. in your dark mode the unread and read is almost identical. there are no lines separating emails between days. youve doubled the size of the advertising on right hand side. you have moved the mailbox to the bottom befreo it was was visible on top and showed how many emails were unread. you ve moved the star to the right to make it less visible. youve hiddne the folders. you have done a terrible job with this new email. has…

  6. Please return to the prior UX design for the browser client

    You have missed the mark on UX design in your new browser-based email client. Gamification should be an option that can be turned off; I don't need/like/want it. I also can't wait for compact view as the font is absurdly large in the current version and it is difficult to discern bold (unread) message from read (not bold) messages. Please return the toolbar with action buttons and do not make me navigate into a message to apply actions like reply, delete, etc. You have also wasted an incredible amount of screen real estate on, well, nothing; there is substantial blank/dark…

  7. Hello, in the new version, I cannot find the 'block senders' option to block accounts that send spam emails. Could you please add it?

  8. Please make the Paper clip Icon Actionable

    The paper clip used to take us to the attachment in the email. Bring back this feature, it was very helpful and we did not need to scroll down to the end of the message.

  9. Improve Response Time

    In the new version, it is is taking longer time to send/receive/compose messages. It looks heavy. Earlier Basic version was better and easier to navigate.

    There is no option to switch to the basic version either,

    Please resolve these issues.

  10. blocking made even relatively easier

    Hi, i cannot find the block feature anywhere quickly or simply. The ONLY option i can see is to copy the senders address and go into settings to paste it in a 'block email address' section. I have been receiving 100s of spam emails for some time now and this is very tiring and a long process. perhaps make a block option next to the received email

  18. Allow me to contact support for help

    There is no way to contact support about my account problems. How can I fix them if there is no way to contact you? There is no online person to talk to, no phone number, no email address, no physical address. Surely this is illegal under UK and international law? How can you operate without your customers being able to contact you?
