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.

Multi-Tasking Tabs - Like before, open an email in a new tab.
AI Summaries - Ability to disable. Go to Settings > AI Features > Toggle Off
Number of Total Messages - Hover over the Inbox Icon and you will see both total number of messages and unread.
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.



COMING SOON!

Inbox Categories - Default to "All" category instead of always Priority.

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.

  4. I just want to thank you so much!

    From the bottom of my heart I appreciate your assistance in restoring my yahoo account from a hacker who completely took over my account! This was my primary life account. Everything, I mean EVERYTHING for the past 20 years was in it . YOUR commitment to customers, to have a procedure to reclaim and restore my account AFTER my phone was stolen and hacked by a thief, It is a very compassionate decision. To have people who can assist in a situation where both my email AND my phone number were taken from me and I lost all control over…

  5. I detest your new version. I hate, hate, hate it. It is inconvenient and restrictive.

    With your NEW version, I am unable to see what the messages are without fully exposing them. Lousy version,
    Why can't you simply leave things alone?

  6. Problem with sorted mails.

    Dear Mr/Mrs,

    I have a Yahooaccount. For me it is incredibly impractical and enormously frustrating that when I have gotten several e-mails from one sender, after a while the mails are stacked up on one another in an own categori instead of ju be listed one after another unindependently of who have sent the mail. I do not like this at all. I want all my mails to be strict in order of date regardless of who have sent them. How should I do to solwe this problem? As it is now I have marked in the settings that i…

  7. Need assistance in opening my account that showing unrecoginzed

    Dear Yahoo Support Team,

    I am writing to report a serious issue regarding my Yahoo Mail account gurmailsinghots@yahoo.com. My account appears to have been deleted without any prior notice or information.

    Whenever I try to sign in, the system shows that the account is unrecognizable. This is very concerning because I had important emails and documents stored in this account that I urgently need to access.

    Additionally, I was unable to find a proper support channel to resolve this issue, which made the situation more difficult. I kindly request you to please check the status of my account and…

  12. Searching Mail Folder

    We can search what is only in the SENT Folder. When I select search for the INBOX folder I only want to see what is in my INBOX folder not what is in any other folder. You include emails in other folders that in the INBOX folder in that search. That makes no sense.

  15. Have differnt Star Colors

    I was thinking it would be great if the user could change the star color from just red. I personally star a tone of emails but they are for different things like work, purchase orders, medical and so on. So for example, I could star my work emails with a yellow star and for medical a blue star and so on. Just food for thought.

  16. Keep the "More" menu fixed at the bottom of the window

    In the new layout, keep the "More" menu fixed at the bottom of the window so you don't need to scroll past all your folders to find it.

  17. Make settings easier to find

    Currently, you have to scroll all the way down to the bottom of your list of folders just to find settings. It should be much more accessible. I suggest a cog icon at the top right: next to the preferences icon in the email list window, and next to the close button in the email reading window.

  19. Allow Advanced Search to select sub-folders to do the search in

    Old Yahoo Mail allowed you to seach in sub-folders in each linked email box. New Yahoo Mail does not let you select any sub-folders; only main email box. This is like you broke the search function/downgraded or ruined the function when you made what seems like visual "improvements" (not impressed) only.

  20. Allow settings to customize look of inbox, such as spacing and font

    Old Yahoo Mail allowed you to space messages apart further and customize how many lines of the message you could preview/see. Bring that back.
