This is a crucial function for me in my business of Technical Documentation. Attaching the graphics many times is not an option for my clients.

Keep the old buttons at the TOP of the message as well as the bottom. Remember guys, TIME IS MONEY. This constant scrolling back and forth is costing me time, and may very well cost YOU money in the long run as we switch to a better email client.

A few things. You need to make it easier to turn on the preview pane. I had to enable individual pane scrolling to even make the preview button show up. Otherwise the button didn’t even exist.

Also, the top bar / search bar are is huge. By the time I turn on my preview pane and the To / CC message details, a lot of my screen is filled with the top bar and padding.

I like the design, but it needs to go on a little diet.

Furthermore, you guys should know the “Improve Yahoo! Mail” app doesn’t work at all. It just keeps trying to load and nothing happens.

Keep up the great work.

Thanks,
Blake

And return the hide button for the ads on the right; vital information was unreadable from some commercial websites, partially hidden under the ads.

I’m switching back because of the lack of that feature.

What’s that all about? Also, it is definately not faster than the old version.

I can’t find any way to close or move this annoying advertisement

I would like to have the same buttons (delete, next…etc.) that are at the top of each mail also at the bottom. Then I don’t have to scroll or jump back to the top of each mail to move on.

Thank you

I would first like to say the new Yahoo! Mail Beta has a great design compared to the previous ones and I like it a lot. However I want to make a suggestion because of a detail that bothers me. To make this short: I don’t like the old style checkboxes.In my opinion they are too aggressive for the general smooth design of the website and I think they spoil it. I think these can be given a smoother shape to blend with the background and the rest of the controls.
I don’t know if this is the right place to make improvement suggestions but if it is not maybe you can give me some directions.

Thanks and have a great day!

Opera support is a must, as it’s the default and sometimes only browser on some devices, and is the browser of choice of a segment of your user base.
