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?
Reply/Forward Icons - You can see the arrow icons when you've replied or forwarded to a message.
Up/Down Arrow, Scrolls Now - In full message view, not preview pane.
Sender's Email Address - You don't have to open the email to see the sender's email address. Just hover over the sender's name from your Inbox. 
Search Results Will Show Folder - Now when you do a search, where the emails are located will show up.


COMING SOON!
Inbox Categories - Default to "All" category instead of always Priority.
AI Summaries - Ability to disable this under Settings.
Right Hand Column - Ability to minimize: Contacts, Starred, More (Currently Yahoo Mail Plus subscribers)


TIPS:
Drag and drop messages to folders - Just click and hold on an email message, then drag and drop that message into a different folder. 
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. 
Dark Mode - Go to Settings > Appearance.
Inbox Categories - You can go back to having just ONE Inbox. Go to Settings > Personalize Inbox.

  3. Return to the old format before the update

    I dislike the new yahoo email. Things are hidden now that were out in the open. For instance, I have to hit the unread emails to get all the new emails that have come in to me. The inbox doesn't show them all. I would like the delete function out in the open instead of having to click somewhere else for it, it was better placed before. This and more is why I hate updates because changes are made that really don't need to be made to function and the user needs to basically be retaught and shouldn't have to…

  10. Wiped out history?

    Why would I keep using yahoo if you wipe out my entire history of emails after a period of inactivity? I used yahoo mail for over 20 years and this is how I am repaid. I kept my inbox fairly clean and low amount of data, I went through period of over a year away from the internet and come back to decades of records wiped out. I want my messages from 2007 Iraq deployment and my recovery key for my bitcoin wallet from years ago. Where was my notice?

    Congrats! you made it exponentially worse. That is a unique talent to take something simple that works and ******* up so profoundly. AI should replace all of you.

  15. New UI is Horrible!

    This new UI is god awful! Can barely tell unread messages from read ones. Where are the visual queues for denoting at a glance? The fonts throughout are too similar to diferentiate. How to I get back to an older interface?

    BAD BAD BAD! Shame!

  17. Priority emails

    I absolutely hate that you decide what are priority emails in my inbox. How do I change my email inboxes so when I access them they automatically go to "All?" Shouldn't I be the one to judge whether an email is priority? Keep your algorithms to yourself!!

  20. all

    I like the inbox categories, but give me a setting to let me default to "All". I want to see all mail, and then use the categories to filter them, but I want to start with all, and then choose to move to "Priority".
