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. Less Spam email

    With the new email I get three times as much Spam. Is this your idea of the new email being better? Well, It's not!

  2. Calendar

    Put it back on the main email screen. Why in the world would you hide it in a "more" tab? I honestly think you must be stupid to not get user input when you push "improvements". Calendar should be on the main screen easily accessed. And no I do not like the new design, it has nothing with getting used to it either.

  7. Draft saved loses its formatting

    I saved an email thread in drafts. When I came back to it, all formatting was lost and the text was a big smashed together glob of text. No carriage returns were respected.

  9. Stop all the pop ups

    Never had all these silly pop-ups before like the Halloween challenge or whatever. I don't care about earning useless "badges" for checking my email. Stop the silliness.

  10. Please get rid of all the colours by the emails

    the colours detract from actually seeing emails clearly. There needs to be an option to get rid of the colours. It's the first thing I would do - please listen.
    PS why have you changed it at all??

  11. Menus need to be fixed

    You've changed the start page and buried key functions (e.g., Move) in menus that require an extra step to find an use. In genera, the revised format is simply not as convenient to use as the older format. Yes, people will learn to use the new format, but this format is not an upgrade for long time users.

    Also, how can I change the color scheme to better emphasize new v. old emails? How can I change the type size to see more emails on one page. Why are all of my personal folders now buried under a menu option…

  12. Search

    Why get rid of one of the most used features - the search glass by sender and subject. This new format looks more cluttered and requires more steps to accomplish actions than the old one. Feels like this is change for the sake of change. Not sure what has improved from the prior version.

  13. Option to never show AI Summaries on Emails

    Please give the option to ALWAYS remove the AI summary. I don't use that - never will need to for personal email. And yes, I do us it for work email. So I understand it's value. Give us the option and STOP TAKING UP SO MUCH SCREEN REAL ESTATE - I don't want to have to scroll just to see my email.

  14. I need a clean black and white inbox.

    I need a clean black and white inbox.
    The colorful avatars - name tags - are not possible to remove (according to AI research) and they are very unappealing for me visually.

  15. Make read emails more obvious

    It was very obvious in the old mail which emails were read and which were unread because the unread emails were in bold. Now they all look the same except for a small dot.

  16. Updates are ****

    You should be giving your users the option to CHOOSE if they want your new inbox designs BEFORE you update instead of FORCING your updates on EVERYONE regardless of whether they want them or not.I DO NOT want this new **** that you forced on me. I want a simple mailbox that is an inbox and a spam folder and the folders I CHOOSE to make. Not, get in my inbox to find that I have 19 unread messages and only one of those is actually in my inbox. Then take ten minutes to figure out where to find the…

  17. leave it alone

    I don't know why you have to keep changing the email layout I hate it when you change it. Gmail hasn't changed and I am happy with that. Stop messing with my email layout. its fine the way it was.
