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!

Thank you! 💜

  1. The complete Personal Data for my name was sent to me two days ago. I downloaded it, but it was not decipherable nor readable.

    If the complete Personal Data had been sent in Word or some other common composition form, I might have been able to open it up in a READABLE form. But it was sent with a .zip form, and I could find no way to unzip it. As a result, the whole download was of no use to me whatever. I deleted the whole download as USELESS. If you can send me the Personal Data for Bruce Bayles (broobay@yahoo.com) in Word or some other word processing form, I would appreciate it. If not, I thank you for your effort,…

  3. Email webpage new look/design is the worst

    Your New Look is horrible. Once the email is opened, there is only 3" of space to read the actual mail, the rest is garbage data.
    The title that has the sender's info, date time, (only few word) takes almost 2" of space, and now you added another mindless task, the words: REPLY or FORWARD in extremely large letters that is taking 1" space to the bottom of the page. You have left only 3" of space for the IMPORTANT EMAIL details.
    Why can't you make things easier and more BASIC to understand and read?
    Terrible look for the new…

  4. Show all Yahoo email accounts so we can switch between them easily like we used to be able to do.

    Allow users to see all Yahoo accounts in a single GUI instead of having to go to Settings or some equally cumbersome process.

  5. 3rd factor authentication is no longer a luxury we need it immediately

    googleyahoodevice_id.txt

    Yes, Google has introduced an optional selfie video sign-in and recovery feature

    3fa -3rd factor authentication Google mail should be a device id

    Video can be breached

    What is written can be read and replayed
    Use only device id which cannot be copied

    Use device id network mac id from bios below hardware abstraction layer
    Cpu id
    Cpu serial numbers

    Before 25 years when ipv6 was developed
    I suggested geo ip for security
    the subnet mask can be converted to a geography mask.

  6. I miss the old search function

    You have significantly weakened your search function. What happened to searching by folder? I used to be able to search by subject or sender within just one folder. That doesn't appear to be the case anymore. Why did you take it away?

  8. bubbles are bad

    Your new design of bubbles are bad. It is difficult to read. It does not promote a professional look. I am extremely disappointed in the new design. So many of my very important emails went to spam. I have one account that I use for professional/office purposes, and I will have to leave you for a Gmail account. In addition, I will pay for the Gmail account because at least they provide a professional look to the email that doesn't look like silly bubbles. This is serious and BTW I am a medical professional and do not appreciate the changes…

  9. Get rid of the "primary" tab. It shouldn't exist and it should NEVER be the default view

    I do not need AI to tell me which of my e-mails are "primary". I am perfectly capable of reading and sorting my own e-mail, thanks very much. This is very off-putting.

  10. be able to delete all your emails to clear out the mailbox

    Not sure why you are not allowing me to delete all of my emails in my inbox.
    I am sure your AI has read and absorbed them all already.
    Can you please explain?

  11. Sort by sender

    I followed the instructions "Sort By Sender - This is still a sorting option, but you must disable Conversation view under your Settings. Then you will see "Sender name"" and it still doesn't work. Please for the love of all that is Holy, fix this. It is maddening.

  12. Add option for 2 lines under message preview

    Currently I can only see the beginning of the message and not even a full line on the message preview. I would like to see the complete line 1 that might allow me to see the Amazon order number or what they want. I have so many Amazon messages that look the same with the limited preview line. I need to be able to pick the email that I want quicker.

  15. inbox is too crowded, need more space between emails, do NOT like or need the side panel. Prefer my folders and email list only.

    The inbox is too hard to read, each line is very crowded together and it is also hard to discern between unread and read emails. Need more spacing between each line for clarity and easier to read.

    The side panel that you can not minimize or close also adds to the congestion of the main page.

  18. No Link To Attachements

    In the previous version of Yahoo Mail, the paperclip icon at the top of the email body took you to the attachments at the bottom of the email body when clicked on. This was very convenient and reduced unnecessary scrolling to get to attachments.
    The paperclip icon in the new Yahoo Mail doesn't have this feature. Nothing happens when you click on it.
    Why did you take away such a useful feature? Please return it. Thank you.

  19. Folders

    Don't like the new format, but I would be happy if the expanded view of folders could be left on (create a toggle). In a way, folders functioned as the categories do now.

  20. Please show actual email address of sender

    Previous Yahoo email would show full/actual email address from sender.
    This was very useful for identifying spam.
    I do not see this in the new Yahoo email.
    Please add it back.
    I know I can read "raw" email, but hard to find sender address within the gobbledy gook.
    Thanks
