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! 💜

  2. If you want ideas to improve Yahoo email, you need to pay me.

    If you want ideas to improve Yahoo email, you need to pay me as an outside contractor. Why are you asking me to work for you for free? Would you work for me for free? ****. So don't ask me how I would improve Yahoo email. That is your job.
    .
    There are multiple things wrong with your new email. The reason for this is that you people are lazy and are not doing a good job. You people need to be fired for making Yahoo email worse.
    .
    You should all be fired.
    .
    If you want me

  3. Need flexibility and workability

    Not flexible or workable. At this point it is almost useless considering how I use my email. Like having more reasonable preview of an individual email. Like to set up how I view my inbox and emails. Candidly the change is cutesy and fuzz but almost useless from a working standpoint. I want work-ability flexibility not some pretty and totally useless app. Will wait for a while to see if there is any improvement and, if not, will change my email to another provided. Want to be able to set it up where it is workable for me not your…

  5. Quit it with the pop-ups

    Quit it with all the pop-ups every time I open Yahoo Mail - not ads, all the "do you want to try this feature?" when I've already turned the feature off, or said no to the same exact pop-up previously. It's annoying.

  8. Less space for email body visualization

    The new yahoo mail has less space to view the body of the email, there's a lot of space in the top that shows the sender and the date and in the bottom for the reply/forward buttons. The priority of the space should be for viewing the body of the email, how it was in the classic version.

  10. thick boxes/different background lighting

    I have absolutely terrible eyesight that not even surgery can correct. The new blindingly white background is absolutely horrible - I get a headache from two minutes of it. The ONLY black background is bad, too, The "white script" is terribly painful. The old layout, where the emails were defined by a clear wide margin of a DIFFERENT background helped me keep my eyes focused on either the list of emails, or the email itself. As it is, my eyes are jumping back and forth, and I have not been able to sort through anything. I have to enlarge things…

  11. Where is the filter to filter according to read/unread

    Where is the filter to filter according to read/unread - this is a necessity as emails go into the deleted box and that is the way one can find them.

  15. My background color

    I have visual issues and require a certain color background on my email so I can read them better. Your change has taken that option away from me. I am not a happy Yahoo email user anymore. AND you've already indicated we CAN'T change back! Another idiotic decision.

  16. Readability Decline

    We need some kind of background other than blinding white or too dark. CHOOSE your picture or solid color ALWAYS worked and you took it away. I despise the "new look" stop changing things randomly. did you really get enough complaints about the backgrounds as they WERE to warrant changing it to far less choices? for extra personalization you could allow choose your text color,font,size, and adjust contrast your mailbox page.

  17. Unread and Read Mails View

    Dark Mode - Extremely difficult to differentiate between "New Unread Mails" and "Old Read Mails". Just the Bold Font for New Unread Mails is not an enough differentiator. Also, in Settings screen, there is no "Back" button to go back to mailbox view

  19. Przywróćcie wcześniejszy wygląd.

    Nie podoba mi się nowy interface. Przywróćcie wcześniejszy, do którego jestem przyzwyczajony. Unowocześnianie na siłę jest do dupy. Wierzę w karmę.

  20. NO TRASH DELETION AFTER 7 DAYS

    I WAS NOT NOTIFIED THAT MY TRASH WOULD AUTO DELETE AFTER 7 DAYS. THAT HAS NEVER BEEN A THING SINCE I FIRST SIGNED UP. NOW I'M LOOKING FOR SOMETHING I DELETED ON THE 10TH AND AM UNABLE TO FIND IT. THIS IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING.
