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! 💜

  2. Make Sender Icon/Avatar in Inbox Optional

    Please make it possible to turn off the sender icons/avatars displayed next to each email in inbox and show only checkboxes. It is VERY visually distracting and eye-straining.

    Thank you!

  3. Inbox

    This inbox is confusing in terms of I don't know which emails that are selected when I want to delete a group of them at once. There should be a clearer difference in terms of what is selected and what isn't.

  4. close the tabs for individual emails when the emails are closed

    Please don't leave "tabs" open for each of the emails that I've open, read, and closed. It makes the desktop messy and then I have to go close them. They only close on their own if I delete the email, so it's really annoying to have to go clean up something that should be autocleaned.

  5. Yahoo mail is now USELESS to multitask

    The new yahoo mail is TERRIBLE I usually open multiple emails in new tabs to I can get more done but now its impossible.

    Right-click an email now and all it does it select it. WORTHLESS !!!!!

    I'm seriously considering switching to a new provider because this is unacceptable GARBAGE.

  6. Drop the Ads from the Inbox

    The ads in the inbox are a pathetic way of trying to get clicks and is a disservice to your users. Shame on you Yahoo!

  8. Switching accounts is now 3 clicks

    New design goes backwards!!!

    Switching accounts with old design took 2 clicks, new design is 3, a productivity loss!!!

    Why change something that worked!!!

    Why would someone pay for a product that changes out from under you!!!

  9. everything is too spaced out/far apart

    New e-mail layout looks bad. There is too much space between every line of text. It's like you are making a fisher price toy interface for kids. I want a dense view, no line spacing. I can do the same with Outlook thankfully.

  10. Let me print just the body of the email.

    Your new interface is horrible and will not let me print just the body of the email. When I highlight the email body and try to print just the selection, it comes up blank. When I click the print button and close the print dialog, it closes the email so I cannot select just the body to print like I could in the old interface. I don't know why you guys insist in enshittifying the email experience. CHANGE THIS!!!

  11. Sort by "To" and "From".

    When you searched for an email address, the list needs to have option to sort "To" and "From" that email. Why would you delete this option from the old version? This is a down grade!!

  12. Visual comfort and usability should be priorities.

    The new Yahoo layout, font, and overall experience are awful. This isn’t simply a complaint about change—it’s about readability, eye comfort, and ease of use. The new design is harder on the eyes, more difficult to scan, and makes everyday tasks feel unnecessarily frustrating.

    A redesign should make the experience easier and more comfortable. This update has done the opposite. Please improve the font, spacing, and readability, or give users the option to return to the previous layout. Visual comfort and usability should be priorities.

  13. Log in issues and constant "insecure website", https://rtb0.doubleverify.com/ "SSL not trusted" warnings

    My idea is to let me sign into my Yahoo mail account using my password and not what you want me to sign in with. You're latest terrible update to the mail site is doing nothing but making its use an unnecessary hassle for me. Guess what? Keep it up and lose a customer.

  16. Buggy. Slow.

    Mail shows 1 Unread message in the "Folder" navigation pane on the left, but in the "Message List" window, I cannot find an unread message. I used the "Filter" to show "Unread" only, and the message showed up, but then when I turn the filter off, I can no longer see/find the new mail. I tried repeatedly to find the message without having to use the "Unread" filter, but nope - couldn't be done.

    My next step was to hit "Refresh" on my (fully updated) Chrome browser. Lo and behold - the previously hidden unread message appeared right where it…

  17. too small a box for reading incoming emails

    I cannot SEE the whole email received. I only get a small box - about 1 1/2 inches - about the size of this box to actually read the incoming email.
    Please help. This is awful. And there is not an enlarger triangle like I see here. Help!

  19. Add a keyword search!!

    You previously had really good email search functions, including a keyword search. It's pretty useless the way it is now. Make the search functions the same as before!!

  20. Compress amount of emails listed on screen to be greater.

    There are too few emails on the screen at one time compared to the old mail, which I am angry at being forced off of. Please add a compressed mail view ASAP to show more mail in the inbox at a time. Also, re-enable old Yahoo mail. The switch back option in the settings is BROKEN!
