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. Stop all the pop ups

    Never had all these silly pop-ups before like the Halloween challenge or whatever. I don't care about earning useless "badges" for checking my email. Stop the silliness.

  2. Please get rid of all the colours by the emails

    the colours detract from actually seeing emails clearly. There needs to be an option to get rid of the colours. It's the first thing I would do - please listen.
    PS why have you changed it at all??

  3. Menus need to be fixed

    You've changed the start page and buried key functions (e.g., Move) in menus that require an extra step to find an use. In genera, the revised format is simply not as convenient to use as the older format. Yes, people will learn to use the new format, but this format is not an upgrade for long time users.

    Also, how can I change the color scheme to better emphasize new v. old emails? How can I change the type size to see more emails on one page. Why are all of my personal folders now buried under a menu option…

  4. Search

    Why get rid of one of the most used features - the search glass by sender and subject. This new format looks more cluttered and requires more steps to accomplish actions than the old one. Feels like this is change for the sake of change. Not sure what has improved from the prior version.

  5. Option to never show AI Summaries on Emails

    Please give the option to ALWAYS remove the AI summary. I don't use that - never will need to for personal email. And yes, I do us it for work email. So I understand it's value. Give us the option and STOP TAKING UP SO MUCH SCREEN REAL ESTATE - I don't want to have to scroll just to see my email.

  6. Make read emails more obvious

    It was very obvious in the old mail which emails were read and which were unread because the unread emails were in bold. Now they all look the same except for a small dot.

  7. Updates are ****

    You should be giving your users the option to CHOOSE if they want your new inbox designs BEFORE you update instead of FORCING your updates on EVERYONE regardless of whether they want them or not.I DO NOT want this new **** that you forced on me. I want a simple mailbox that is an inbox and a spam folder and the folders I CHOOSE to make. Not, get in my inbox to find that I have 19 unread messages and only one of those is actually in my inbox. Then take ten minutes to figure out where to find the…

  12. If you want ideas to improve Yahoo email, you need to pay me.

    If you want ideas to improve Yahoo email, you need to pay me as an outside contractor. Why are you asking me to work for you for free? Would you work for me for free? ****. So don't ask me how I would improve Yahoo email. That is your job.
    .
    There are multiple things wrong with your new email. The reason for this is that you people are lazy and are not doing a good job. You people need to be fired for making Yahoo email worse.
    .
    You should all be fired.
    .
    If you want me

  13. Need flexibility and workability

    Not flexible or workable. At this point it is almost useless considering how I use my email. Like having more reasonable preview of an individual email. Like to set up how I view my inbox and emails. Candidly the change is cutesy and fuzz but almost useless from a working standpoint. I want work-ability flexibility not some pretty and totally useless app. Will wait for a while to see if there is any improvement and, if not, will change my email to another provided. Want to be able to set it up where it is workable for me not your…

  15. Quit it with the pop-ups

    Quit it with all the pop-ups every time I open Yahoo Mail - not ads, all the "do you want to try this feature?" when I've already turned the feature off, or said no to the same exact pop-up previously. It's annoying.

  18. Less space for email body visualization

    The new yahoo mail has less space to view the body of the email, there's a lot of space in the top that shows the sender and the date and in the bottom for the reply/forward buttons. The priority of the space should be for viewing the body of the email, how it was in the classic version.

  20. Where is the filter to filter according to read/unread

    Where is the filter to filter according to read/unread - this is a necessity as emails go into the deleted box and that is the way one can find them.
