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!


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.

  3. My Yahoo Mail account can send and receive emails internally, but it is not receiving external emails from Gmai

    My Yahoo Mail account can send and receive emails internally, but it is not receiving external emails from Gmail, Outlook, or Supercell. I checked Spam, blocked addresses, filters, and storage, and there is no issue there. Please check whether incoming external mail is being blocked or delayed for my account.

  4. Stop the banner to add yahoo mail as an application

    Stop the banner to add yahoo mail as an application. That application is useless, does not bring anything except taking space on the taskbar. Beside, even installing that app does not remove the popup.

  5. Yahoo mail web browser

    I have had my email with yahoo for 10+ years. Because Yahoo has made the email experience less user friendly. I will be abandoning this account and moving to Gmail. I should be able to drag my emails into my folders within my inbox.

  7. restore deleted folders

    I had folders for every important event in my life such as information on large purchases such as a house and every communication about selling my house. I also had communications with the IRS about my taxes and donations. I would like all my folders restored.

  9. Return paperclip icon for attachments of previous emails.

    The paperclip icon no longer displays the "recent emails" option while attaching files above the attach from local. omputer paper clip. This was a efficient tool for adding from previous emails. Since you have force fed the update again and removed the switch back to classic it is the least you can do to make yahoo email as useful before the so called New Yahoo email. There are those of us that would pay for classic yahoo email and I am one of them. I've had the email 30 years when it was was of Geocities. I can live with…

  10. Better Tracking of Streaks for Mobile Devices

    I've enjoyed the new streak tracker that's available on my desktop computer, but it's disheartening that it is not tracking streak metrics from actions on mobile devices. Is there some sort of feature that can be added to monitor progress made on phones??

  11. Toggle on/off the event from email feature

    Your new "put an item on the calendar based on the contents of an email" does not work properly. It's mixing up information, putting the wrong stuff on the desktop calendar, locking up my phone app, and making calendar items out of things that are only and FYI for me (not an event). Please allow the user to turn this feature on or off based on their own needs.

  12. email delete - bug fix

    There is a bug in the current release where the feature icons disappear from the Inbox header when the delete checkbox is selected - it happens when a random number of emails are selected on the All tab for deletion - the page then freezes, requiring a restart of the Email box

    FYI Browser Version MS Edge 153.0.4234.32 (Official build) (64-bit)

  13. Reply All missing from Yahoo Mail desktop

    Reply All has disappeared from New Yahoo Mail on desktop. This occurs in both Chrome and Safari on macOS. The message has multiple recipients/CC recipients, but only Reply and Forward are available. Reply All is also absent from the More (…) menu.

    The documented “A” keyboard shortcut for Reply All opens a normal Reply instead.

    Reply All works correctly for the same account/messages in the Yahoo Mail iPhone app.

    Browser cache has been cleared and the computer rebooted with no change.

    Hi Jason, thank you for reporting. Can you send us some screenshots of what you're seeing to oasis.mail.feedback@yahooinc.com? Then also your browser and browser info. We can't seem to replicate as emails with several recipients has Reply and Reply All. Thanks for your help!

  14. Stop the ******* challenges

    I opted out of streaks, why am I getting pop-up's about back-to-school 'challenges'.

    This product is really turning into something unusable.

    I dislike Gmail, but this is quickly becoming worse.

  15. Yahoo email is not working properly.

    After receiving an email, I replied to the sender or forwarded it to a new one.
    After several repeated replies, I cannot forward the original email to a new one because the emails are combined.
    The Inbox and Sent folders only show the combined emails.
    Yahoo email causes a lot of trouble when replying to official emails.
    Please fix it.

  16. Images continue to show despite changing setting, this is unsafe

    I want to use the new Yahoo mail but it feels unsafe to do so until the images are truly blocked. They are still there for me. But when I switch to the older version they are gone.

  17. Protect Starred/Tagged Emails from "Select All" Deletion

    The 'Select All' feature is fantastic for quickly clearing junk. However, when 'Select All' is used, it includes emails that I have already marked as Starred (or otherwise "tagged important").

    My suggestion is that the system should be designed to automatically exclude any emails that are Starred/Tagged Important when the user selects 'Select All' for deletion. This would prevent accidentally deleting priority messages while mass-clearing the inbox.

    In short: Starred/Important emails should be protected from the 'Select All' function for deletion.

  18. View Attachments

    I have an email i receive daily that has an excel spreadsheet attached. In the New Yahoo when I view it, the system cuts off the right side of the report with no way to scroll over to view the information I need to see with having to download the sheet. The old Yahoo Mail had the scroll bar and I can't figure out why you took it out.

  19. BUG: Yahoo Calendar sends reminders to an obsolete email address that is no longer configured anywhere in my Yahoo account.

    My Yahoo account is: ktsib@yahoo.com

    All Yahoo Calendar email reminders are incorrectly sent to my old address:

    ktsibouk@panafon.gr

    I have verified the following:

    • Calendar Options → Reminders shows the correct address: ktsib@yahoo.com
    • The old panafon.gr address does not appear in Calendar settings or Sharing.
    • Mail → Settings → Mailboxes contains only my current Yahoo mailbox.
    • Account Security → Additional emails does not contain the panafon.gr address.
    • Disabling Email reminders, saving, and enabling them again did not fix the problem.
    • The problem occurs with completely NEW events.
    • I created a completely NEW TEST calendar and a NEW event in it. Its…

  20. Disable or MOVE delete confirmation

    When configured to auto advance to next unread mail in list layout, the delete confirmation covers the toolbar, forcing the user to dismiss it before being able to delete the now current email. This is excruciatingly painful when trying to power through a bunch of mail.
