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.

  4. Different colour backgrounds for inboxes

    The old yahoo layout had the option to change the colour of the background from various different colours whereas the new layout only has the option for light or dark mode. Could you please bring this back as it helped easily identify which email inbox you in just by the colour.

  8. Subject line of unread message

    when we see unread message, unsubscribe option is coming in the middle of subject line when mouse moves. when we are in hurry, suddenly we click on that unsubscribe option by mistake.
    Solve this problem.

  9. DON'T PUT IN DIFFERENT FOLDERS

    STUPID and ridiculous layout. The whole reason I don't use gmail. I have just found emails that were very important that got filed somewhere and were missed. They don't come up in a search. NOT HAPPY.

  10. There is no option to to choose a custom background color; only light and dark modes are available.

    The ads are inappropriate and irrelevant. Why am I seeing ads for dating websites? What is that supposed to mean? These ads are unwelcome and have nothing to do with my interests. Please review the relevance of the ads being displayed.

  12. Put back Block Senders tab

    Where has the "Block Senders" tab gone? Can only be done now by adding (Typing) each individual email address which is time consuming if there are more than 1 email you wish to block.

  15. Everything is just too big, too much wasted space

    Everything is enormous with tons of wasted space around panes. The right side pane where calendar/contacts show cannot be collapsed taking up even more space in the page. I have half the real estate availabe on the old version for reading my emails. So much so, I had to change the zoom of the page to 80% to get some semblance of normalcy. Oh that means I need to keep on my reading glasses at all times now. Thanks Yahoo!

    When reading an email, the part of the pane that shows subject/buttons/from-to take up over 1/3 of the email pane…

  16. Change Blocked Sender Process

    Return to how it was.

    Old version - Open email, select spam emails to block, press add to blocked senders tab. 3 actions.

    New version - Open email, copy email address, go to settings, open security tab, paste in spam address, return to spam folder, delete item. 8 actions for each email.

    Not sure how this counts as an improvement,

  17. Please restore the appearance of Classic and basic Yahoo Mail

    The new appearance of Yahoo Mail makes viewing emails inconvenient. Please restore the appearance of Classic and basic Yahoo Mail —or at the very least, provide an option to allows users to continue using the Classic and basic Yahoo Mail.

  19. Unread emails don't stand out enough on dark mode

    The text for new emails needs to be a brighter/more contrasting white so that new emails stand out more prominently compared to read emails in dark mode.
