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!

  2. Changes Badly Needed

    Please bring back the Classic Wide font!. And your font selection does not appear to be stable at this point (e.g. the same size selection results in very different size fonts depending on factors I can't figure out -- very frustrating). Also you have reduced the size window for displaying emails and the comparison with a Gmail screen is striking. To keep users on board you really need to increase the size of that display window. And I have repeatedly tried to turn off the inbox categorization feature without success -- even a computer reboot did not result in the…

  3. Click and drag to folder

    I need to click and drag to a new folder like the old email and not go through all of the menus. Tell your IT people to quit screwing up the email.

  7. Get rid of the larger space between each email link. Make more emails visible on the screen.

    I want to see a listing of more emails at once. Now there is so much space between each email, leading to the need to waste time scrolling more. "If it ain't broke, don't fix it!!"

  8. New look makes it difficult to switch accounts

    I have 4 emails all under one account and with this new layout you can't see all of your other emails and if any inboxes have unread messages without going to the bottom left and hovering over it! Terrible new update

  12. How about you stop screwing around with the Inbox and leave it how it was???

    Every once in a while, someone who needs to justify their salary and existence at Yahoo decides to change the Inbox. Please leave it the fk alone!! It works - we like it the way it is - it's superior to gmail THE WAY IT WAS. FFS if you want me to change my email address and go elsewhere, then fine. Yahoo is regarded as yesterday's tech anyway (much like hotmail in today's age) so I might as well go to gmail if you're going to insist on ******* up your email configuration.

  13. Get rid of the terrible sidebar in yahoo mail

    Get rid of the sidebar in the new mail layout. Why the **** do you people do this stupid ****? I didn't ask for it and I pay the money each month for plus. The starred view is obnoxious and gets in the way of my email preview and I can't disable it.

  14. Photos In Body Of Email

    I have noticed that when inserting photos in the body of an email that there is no longer any way to remove them once inserted. There also is no longer a choice of making them large or small. These options were available in the old version of Yahoo Mail. Not having them any longer is very inconvenient. If a mistake is made when inserting a photo, I have to discard the draft and start all over again. Please add this feature back to the new Yahoo Mail. Thank you.

  15. Stop changing Mail without my consent!

    It's very frustrating when my inbox changes automatically, without my consent. I wish Yahoo would stop forcing updates on us.

  16. Cannot use folders as well as in the old UI

    I have a long list of folders. In the old UI, I could expand the list and scroll through it to find the folder I wanted, then drag emails into it. Now I can't. Once I expand the list of folders then move mouse to the email I want to drag into it, the list collapses. This sucks.

  17. Show all mailboxes!

    Have no problem with new mail EXCEPT: have 4 mailboxes for 4 different reasons. Old mail let me see a list of all four and how many new messages were in each. NOW I have to click on each one to see what's new. WASTE OF TIME, allow all mailboxes to show

  18. I've had a brainwave. What about a mail app that shows the unread messages in your inbox by default.

    We appear to have a mail app which now does not show inbox unread messages by default. Is this progress?

  19. Make "From:", "To:" lines in message pane also scollable

    Make "From:", "To:" lines in message pane also scrollable like old Yahoo Mail so they don't always take up space, giving more space for the message body. I hate the new Yahoo Mail because of this
