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. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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

  4. 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?

  5. 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

  7. Turn off distracting and useless features such as "add to schedule."

    "Add to schedule" pop up shows over some emails -- it makes it hard to open them and there is no way to turn off that kind of nonsense. Please remove these annoying features or make them optional -- they simply get in the way.

  8. more customization

    there is too much white space. I can't see enough of my folders. middle email viewing area is too small. No control for layout. The new interface is such a cluttered, unorganized layout. Hard to find the few option in settings that are actually there. Going back to the old yahoo mail would be the best improvement.

  11. Submitting a ticket does not work - link broken - please fix asap

    Trying to submit a ticket via three different browsers -- all of them refuse to send the message despite all fields being filled out. Please fix this issue because as it is no one can contact you for technical support. For a paid service, that is unacceptable.

  12. Distinct Separation of Days

    Could you please include a distinct indication of separate calendar days in the email feeds. With having the email sender and the email purpose towards the left of the screen, and the dates on the right of the screen, it can be an annoying eyeball bounce back and forth while trying to quickly scroll down to a specific saved email from a specific day (or period of days) ago. Daily named segment blocks would really help facilitate this! Thank you!

  13. Email addresses in the "to" field are now not visible under the contact name - need to fix asap

    There is no way to click on the address and see the actual address. You can only see the name of the contact and there is no way to copy and paste an address. That is dysfunctional and disrupts regular email function -- critical issue that needs an immediate fix.

  15. **** new design

    Terrible update, all my mailboxes are now in the bottom and minimize, it's a pain ********** to scroll down to go to my other mail boxes. They were better before on top and easily accessible. Not sure who gave you this idea, they should be fired.

  16. Get rid of the gamified badges

    Ok, sit down and think about this: Who wants to have badges for an email account? No one! This is not a game; it's an email app. Why in the **** do I care that I checked my emails daily? "Oh, look, you have checked your emails 7 days in a row!" You should tell your clients and customers that you checked your email for 7 consecutive days. I also **** 7 days in a row, and I don't think that I need to tell anyone about it. Oh, sorry, I just did it to you. Oh, by the way,…
