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. Allow individual emails to be opened

    After a long, frustrating attempt to find a way to switch back to the old Yahoo Mail, I figured I'd share this:

    We were allowed to middle click an email from the inbox and have it opened in a new tab before. Now that is not an option. Having this implemented MIGHT prevent me from switching my life to Gmail.

  3. Subject line memory

    Why did you remove the subject line memory when composing emails. In the old style mail, if you send to someone frequently, it would pop up automatically once I typed the beginning of the name.

    Why did your company take away all of the convenient features and leave it as mess now?

    Also, give us the ability to use the old style mail. The new one is terrible. The font and highlighting is horrible.

  4. Adding filters is harder know. I used ot be able to click on the email and use that to add a filter to put the emails into a folder.

    Be able to add an email to a filter folder instead of clicking the gear, going to filter, clicking add, remebring the email, and doing it the hard way. Just make it like it was before. Where you could add a filter directly from the email.

    You should be able to rearrange mailbox order via drag and drop and should be able to use filter to add stars to email.

  8. Make AI features toggle available again!

    I tried to toggle off the AI summaries, but despite attempting to turn them off entirely, I still get AI summaries of emails that are both unwanted, AND INCORRECT!

    PLEASE, please please please, let me turn off the AI features entirely.

  9. Restore feature to drag/slide the visible width of the folder column on left side

    Restore feature to be able to drag/slide the visible width of the folder column on left side. With old email, that width was adjustable to show complete folder names, even long ones. Even though with the New email you can hover over a folder name and the full name is displayed, there is no column width adjustment, so folder name longer than about 20 characters are cut off. Some of my folder names have nearly identical names, with only the latter portion of the name being different than another nearby folder. Now I can no longer just click on the…

  12. Bring back the feature to see what attachments an email has from inbox view

    In the old version, when an email had attachments, the paperclip or picture would appear (as now) to the right of the email in the inbox view. Mousing over that would show you what attachments the email had (without needing to open the attachment or the email), so if you needed to know which email from a client had the right attachment, it was easy to find at a glance.

    NOW, mousing over the paperclip causes the folder, the star, the delete button to appear and you CANNOT see what the attachments are like you could before--you NOW have to…

  14. Too much space between areas

    I cant find how to switch the dark - back to light in email. Also you have too much space between the email list and the actual email in the center - it is frustrating to read and use. You need to fix the formatting

  15. Move "Reply" and "Forward" to top of email reading screen

    Move the "Reply" and "Forward" buttons from the bottom of the email reading screen to the top with the other action items. With actions at the top and Reply & Forward at the bottom, too much screen real estate is used and you can only see a sliver of the message you are trying to read. Not all screens are large! Thanks!

  16. Put email accounts back at the top of the left panel

    I have multiple email ids that I use when I use Yahoo email. The old format used to list all my email accounts at the top of the left hand panel. Now they are at the bottom and you cannot see them unless you scroll down. Not user friendly.

  17. Sort email by the day's date, put options trash, file, etc and side bar options in bold

    Everything looks the same and is hard to findGroup emails by the date. Everything is difficult to find on the page. It all looks exactly the same. This is the worst update I have ever encountered to mail.

  18. width of inbox vs ads

    The inbox is too small (narrow) in comparison to width of adds column. Make it wider and ads sections more discreet.

  20. Please, can we have the settings icon at the top and showing again, or more easily accessible?

    It's really hard to find it now, especially since some of us love and use expanded folders (thanks for keeping that). for me, the most important things are settings, calendar, and contacts. those should all still be showing IMO. I don't need fantasy football but i need to be able to quickly access contacts and calendar. thanks!
