New Mail Basic



Welcome to our Yahoo Basic Mail feedback forum! This is a place for you to help shape the new Yahoo Basic Mail experience. We review the most popular, feasible ideas from this forum to make positive changes to your Yahoo Mail.

Basic Mail provides base functionality like reading and writing messages, but does not include many of the advanced options. To use these features, we recommend upgrading to full-featured version of Yahoo Mail.

Here are some guidelines for using this forum:

  1. Please search and vote before posting! If your idea (or an idea very similar to yours) has already been posted, please vote for it. Duplicated ideas may be moved.
  2. This forum is for feedback and ideas only. Unfortunately, we cannot provide support here. For support, please visit our help site.
  3. Please do not post personal information (such as email addresses, phone numbers or names) on the forum.

The Yahoo product feedback forum requires a valid Yahoo ID and password. If you do not have a Yahoo ID or the password to your Yahoo ID, please sign-up for a new account.

If you have a valid Yahoo ID and password, follow these steps if you would like to remove your posts, comments, votes, and/or profile from the Yahoo product feedback forum.

  1. Open attachments

    I would prefer to open attachments sent to me without saving them first, let me open them first then allow me to decide if I want to download and save them or not.

  14. Give me a setting which keeps embedded email addresses from being sent along when I forward

    When I forward an email I have received, I do not want to expose the email of anyone that sent it to me. If I choose 'edit', I can edit out the senders email, but when I do, all formatting, pictures etc are deleted in the process. This is not giving me the option I need.

  15. Add "smooth scrolling" .

    Liked your new version in some ways, but you took away the ability to print the embedded boxes within the message. I don't want to have to download each coupon or message box in order to get everything printed!

  17. Monetizing the Email Forwarding Function

    Why are you forcing me to pay a subscription just so I can forward my email to another address? This is a basic function in any email app and the new idea to monetize is should be re-considered.

  18. Choosing my font and style for ever . i need to chose my font for ever that means I did not need to change for every new composing.

    I do not like Yahoo any more. It is low quality compared to Outlook etc. Why you are groping all email in a dumb way. Why can not you group emails like old style but have the facility to attach by dragging... why there are few good things in the old Yahoo and few good things in new version. Why can you put all good things in the new version.

  20. permit the generation of passwords for desktop apps

    permit the generation of passwords for desktop apps. You disabled this without warning and I can't afford the expense of upgrading hardware and software. Working with mail and calendars on your web site is **** expensive at 1c+ per mb in rural Australia. It is also extremely painful with response times measured in MINUTES, not seconds.
