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! 💜

  1. Missing emails

    Some emails get counted in inbox but do not show up in the listing. If I click unread they show up. They never show up in the inbox list why not?

  3. Please bring the sort back

    There used to be an easy way to 'sort from sender' or 'sort from newest or oldest' - Now I have to click on one email and it will group all from that one sender and then I can review. It takes longer to clean out my inbox now. Just bring it back please. Stop trying to make Yahoo like Gmail; if I wanted Gmail, I'd use it. I still have my hotmail email as well and their platform is much easier than yours.

  4. backgroud colour and email contacts

    I would suggest to have a "grey" or off white background option... light is too bright and dark is just horrible on the eyes.

    Also, please have the contacts' email appear so we can copy/paste them. Eg, When I enter a contacts' name in "To: " their email appears, but cannot be highlighted to copy/paste (as we could before).

  5. page lighting

    Well since you jerks won't return my previous version at least make it possible to have a dark border and the message area be bright ? That would make it much easier on the eyes when reading an email...

  6. Change project managers

    Budding projects managers: The viewing text is now too small on the PC screen, the attention is diverted to pointless large message icons and inexplicable nearby dots. There is no setting for the viewing text size. Just wonder why Yahoo updates (just like Outlook ones) are ALWAYS worse then previous versions.

  8. In-box space

    The split window for tools(Calendar/contacts/starred) should be kept optional. One should be able to toggle it close and open so that - full space horizontal-wise is available to read the mail contents; Reading long mails will thus become comfortable while avoiding sliding scroll tab to left/right for each line of text.

  9. make the body of the email full screen so I can read more than one line of the email at a time.

    too much junk on the top of the email page to be able to see much of the mail it self

  10. Font selection for mailbox view

    The mailbox view uses a lot of whitespace and a very small, fat font. This is hard to read.

  11. Remove ghost labels on delete emails

    Please remove the "ghost" popup icon that says "Delete" when pressing the trash can delete when deleting messages. That ghost icon then blocks the view to other options while it is still visible. What an annoyance.

  12. Advertisement

    THERE SHOULD BE AN OPTION TO REMOVE ADVERTISEMENTS AS IT CONSUMES OUR LIMITED DATA.
    ALSO, THIS NEW LOOK OF THE INBOX IS TOO GRAPHICAL, SO PLEASE INTRODUCE A LOOK WHICH IS LESS GRAPHICAL AND THE ICONS ARE PROMINENT IN DARK MODE.

    YOU CAN ALSO INTRODUCE AN OPTION OR FEATURE WHERE THE GRAPHICAL LOOK OF THE INBOX CAN BE SET BY THE USER HIMSELF. I MEAN THE USER CAN CONFIGURE IT BY HIMSELF JUST AS THE LOOK OF THE AVATARS ARE MADE

  13. Send bulk e mails to Lists

    In the old system I had Lists set up so I could send bulk e mails to groups I manage. Now the new system does not allow me to do this , so I have to send individual e mails - very time consuming! What is going on?

  14. Make the message area bigger again.

    It's so frustrating trying to read a message in the new style. The message box is too small! Any email of length is very frustrating to read. The old style was MUCH better for actually reading messages.

  18. BUG ON SWITCHING BETWEN MAILS.

    Every time I switch between emails, the one I want to open just shows a white page. I can't select another email or click on anything because the entire window is blank. I have to close the email and try opening it again, sometimes five times before it finally works.

    I need a permanent option to switch back to the old email interface. The new version is slow, resource-heavy, and unresponsive. It takes too long to load, and basic actions like opening and switching between emails don't even work properly.
