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. Hard to read

    Guys, the new UI makes reading the emails in the inbox so hard.

    There's also seemingly no easy option to mark emails as Unread. In the past there was a round icon that one could press and mark the email instantly as being unread.

    It's the first time when I feel the need to actually switch to Gmail.

    Please, do something about the UI/UX.

    Thank you.

  4. Multi-inbox major issue

    The new UI is absolutely attrocious.

    Please make the multi-inbox the way it was before, where the additional inboxes didn't require two clicks to switch to it.

    In the previous version, you could simply click on the Email Address on the left sidebar, as it was always visibile, underneath the default one.

    Now it's hidden under an additional pop-up.

    Thank you.

  5. Why is there no complete right click menu option for individual emails

    Placing an email in a folder needs to be much easier. Too many clicks now. Need to have complete menu when right click on an email. I truly don't like using Yahoo mail. Have Outlook and Gmail. The Yahoo mail interface needs to be as good as those

  6. Please respect that some people have had their accounts for DECADES and prefer the option of the uncluttered Yahoo Classic view instead.

    If you aren't willing or able to continue offering Yahoo Classic, at least give your older users the option to turn off the features that make the new look so annoying for some of us. The layout is way too busy, and feels like an assault on the senses. The colorful "sender" icons before each and every email are completely unnecessary and very distracting. There is too much white space between emails, allowing you to see only a small number of emails without scrolling, and the difference between the read and unread emails is far less evident in this version.…

  7. Switch it back to the classic yahoo mail

    Why do you have to fix what ain't broke. I have used the classic view for years and now you are forcing the change. It is clunky and hard to deal with. I will likely start using my gmail account much more. I just don't understand why you would take away something that I have reliably used for years.

  8. REVERT BACK BUTTON - Please give the option to revert to the old Yahoo email

    The new interface (UI) is a disaster on many levels.
    There are too many issues to list.
    It is really surprising you would mess up the workflow of your paying customers with a bad design like that.
    I cannot be productive with the new interface.
    Please give me a option to revert back in settings.

  10. More colorful themes

    The light/dark themes - the only ones available - are genuine eyesores and hard to look at since there is no color contrast, the light one is mostly white and hard to look at, the dark one is too black/on/black and hard to read anything, and both are frankly depressing to look at. Please consider adding colorful themes like the older version of the desktop client.

  13. Let us see more emails at a glance and more easily distinguish "read" from "unread".

    Your changes have made it much more difficult to view my mail, to see which messages are read or unread, and to determine which I might want to delete. I await your "Compact View" in hope that it may offer easier distinctions.

  16. Make the email viewing area larger

    I really hate the small email viewing pane on the new version of Yahoomail. Most of my screen is taken up with the Yahoo interface, which is NOT what I log in to view. Please enlarge the email viewing pane to make it more user friendly.

    Secondly, on the lst of emails, the "unsubbscribe" button pops up over the subject line of my emails which causes errors by clicking on Unsubscribe instead of opening an email as intended. Please move the Unsubscirbe button.

    Lastly, make the email filter option more user friendly as it was in the previous version. Under…

  17. search by email

    I really loved the feature in the previous version that allowed me to hover over an email address, click on it, and see the previous emails sent and received from that person. It made it so much easier to keep track of conversations! wish you can add that back to the new version

  18. theme of yahoo mail

    I don't appreciate, that I'm not being given a choice of being able to switch it back to the old way. We should be able to stay with what we have or switch if we desire not be forced too.

  20. You need to give an option to go back to the old style

    This so called new mail is trash. Having to enable javascript is bs. Some people know what a security event waiting to happen javascript is. Those who use it to program are the dregs of developers. Also the old look and feel of yahoo mail is much more pleasing to look at. This new mail is garbage and I am sick and tired of you thinking you know what your customers want. As a user of your email for **** near 30 years I am disappointed in this trash. You should be ashamed of yourselves.
