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.

*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!



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.

  1. Email advanced search

    Hello, generally the new email client is fine, thank you. However, I need one modest but significant feature please. In email advanced search, I (and I assume others) need to filter by only the Inbox, so the results do not contain messages in other folders. Filtering by a folder is possible, but I don't see a way to filter by just messages in the Inbox. Thank you!

  2. Pin mailboxes to side.

    Please go back to having the option to pin other mailboxes to the side. To go down and then click through each is annoying and inconvenient. Also, can you add an option to turn off the icons of the senders?

  3. Spam Filtering Issues

    A number of important emails are being filtered to my spam, despite ongoing correspondance with a number of these email addresses. You need to offer an option to 'turn off spam filtering' as it's constantly putting emails into spam that shouldn't be.

  4. Give back Hotmail in the mailbox

    I previously gave feedback that we need Gmail login available in mailbox, I meant to say Hotmail. We need Hotmail back in Yahoo mailbox in order to conduct our business.

  5. deleting or trashing ads

    Those ads in the inbox are distracting and hinder segregating. Once read I need a way to trash them.

  6. Kill Tab to Send

    I have had this account for years and have accidentally sent too many emails in the last week because I use the Tab key during email drafting. Why all of a sudden is this happening? What 'upgrade' occurred? How can I have a send delay added to my account so I can recall the half drafted emails that all of a sudden are sending themselves.

    Stop tinkering with my email drafting and viewing functions generally.

  7. Give me option to hide the right side panel

    Give me option to hide the panel with 'Starred' and 'Contacts' options on the right side. It takes up the whole real estate and doesn't allow to view emails properly.

  9. proper localization

    Sorry, but your localization sucks. For years when I am going to log in, I am getting the login text in Slovenian language which I do not understand a word. To understand where to click I ALWAYS have to fix "sl" to en or sk, to understand the text. Which is very dubious because it correctly states that I am from SK. Dear Yahoo, you had 33 years to learn a difference between Slovakia and Slovenia.

  10. Tried it.

    I tried the new version. It's ******* the eyes. The font is bad. The layout of everything is bad. Everything is too big and clunky so it all merges together. Nothing about this is good. I had to turn off all the new irritating features. I don't want or need AI to summarize my email. "Streaks" are a silly idea for an email account, I don't think anyone gets excited for not missing a day reading emails. For the love of God, please give us the old version back. This is just terrible and borderline unusable.
    Thanks.

  11. So slow it is unusable

    It's been a week and I've disabled any features that slow down the experience, but this is still unbearably slow and unusable. It totally ruins yahoo email. I've had to resort to using my iPhone or iPad instead because this web interface is terrible. THIS IS NOT AN IMPROVEMENT. THIS IS NOT A BETTER PRODUCT.

  12. There's nothing about New Mail that I like. Sorry, I prefer Outlook and Gmail, where I can go directly to my inbox without the "primaries."

  13. Move icon

    The move to a folder icon is in 2 different places when you are looking at your inbox or in an open email. Put them in the same place for easier navigation

  15. The new yahoo look is severely awful

    The new yahoo mail update is too heavy and drastically slowing down the computers specially the old ones also it is really difficult to work with. Changing the look is something annoying, but what makes it worst is, you remove the option of shifting that to its previous look. All my family members have shifted from yahoo to google.
