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!

  1. You should carry forward few features from your old model which makes you differnet and more useful

    Searching old emails has become too tough. Even it doesn't identify the subjective keyword.

  2. page navigation

    I can accept the new version of yahoo mail although you certainly are not giving your customers any chance to revert back to the old classic yahoo email version. But I wish you would reconsider giving back page navigation. I hate scrolling down with so much email to go through because frankly I don't have time to scroll down and delete what I choose not to read or is of no interest to me (eg. ads, etc and I am not paying extra to avoid ads) Page navigation helped me organize my mail much easier than having no way to…

  4. Mail box and trailning mail box collapse feature

    Before the new update i could collapse my mail and the trailing mail which helped me keep a track of my past replies, now it asks me to collapse all the mails, what if i want to find the 3rd mail out of the 10 mails i have sent ,and undo the collapse option so i can have a clear idea of my communication trail regarding that particular subject.

  6. The UI makes it too easy to accidentally unsubscribe from an email subscription as the button that appears on hover on a message is too big.

    The UI makes it too easy to accidentally unsubscribe from an email subscription as the button that appears on hover on a message is too big. It should not appear on hover at all.

  8. This needs fixing

    Using my Samsung smartphone Galaxy A20e, I cannot drag and drop a message in my inbox to a particular folder. When I try to drag the email leftwards to the folder the whole page moves left as well. Which means that I can no longer see the folder as it has moved off screen. Can you help fix this issue. Otherwise my inbox will fill up.

  9. Move the Unsubscribe message pop-up

    Hi,
    Every time I go to click on a message to open it the "Unsubscribe" link shows as I hover the curser over the message just before I click on the message (you have put the unsubscribe in the middle of the message link!!),
    Can you move it to the right hand side of the message (ie to the "More" (3 dots)) this is very frustrating!
    Thank you.

  10. changeable layout

    Give your users the ability to form their own layout, because the new one is totally frustrating. Particularly the space on the right is totally useless for some (preview space)

  11. Give option to change background colour to something other than black or white

    I don't like the bright white background and don't want it to be black during the day. I feel that this is not very inclusive for those with neurodiversity who find glaring white backgrounds uncomfortable.

  13. What are categories and who decides?

    You've put linkedin spam as a priority, but not mail from people I know. Is there somewhere to adjust this - I couldn't find it in settings. If it is just random algorithmic junk, why bother?

  15. An ENTIRELY new design

    I tried 'new' yahoo mail a while ago & found it rubbish - specifically it is hard to distinguish at a glance between read and unread emails or whether is was delivered today or yesterday or recently. The info is there, but it is not as clear as before. So I switched back to old-style yahoo mail. Now I've been put on the new style again, but it is still rubbish even though you've had months to adjust it. If it were not my main email account I would be looking for an alternative now. Please dump this rotten design…

  16. Stop putting the ads in the middle of emails so when you selete one the ad get clicked and opens

    Stop putting the ads in the middle of emails so when you delete an email the ad inadvertently gets clicked and opens

    You can no longer start at the top you really need to start at the bottom

    IT WASTES HOURS OF TIME AVOIDING THE AD and most of them are scams my computer has been locked down from just clicking on an ad that said I had 2 emails

    I thought it was part of your new features, and it would of cost me hundreds of dollars, but I realized it was a scam and called my friend and…

  19. Stop the mouseover popups.

    Back in the day it was considered poor web design to use mouseovers because you shove feces into some poor slobs face that stopped moving the mouse and not because they want you to be stupid thinking you have a clue as to what people are doing.
    The mouse not moving is not a click to confirm that is what I WANT TO DO.
    Just because you lemmings are too lazy to click the mouse to see something if you want to see something doesn't mean THE REST OF THE WORLD IS INCAPABLE OF THINKING FOR THEMSELVES.

  20. Observation

    1) In the new view, when we hover the mouse over an email, options such as Star, Delete, and Read/Unread appear, while the attachment icon gets hidden. This creates confusion when trying to identify and delete emails without attachments, as it becomes difficult to distinguish between emails with and without attachments.

    2) Earlier, when multiple emails were selected using the checkboxes for deletion, the selected emails were highlighted, making them easy to identify. However, in the new version, the selected emails are no longer highlighted, making it difficult to distinguish them from the unselected emails.
