New for Yahoo! Mail – Multicoloured Mail
- Posted October 15th, 2007 at 12:32 pm by AndrewM
- Categories: Yahoo! Mail UK
The standard Yahoo! Mail interface was grey (sorry, chrome) – smart, slick and professional. But it’s Autumn now and it’s grey enough outside so we thought: let’s have a bit of colour!
Now you can choose from one of six colours for your inbox. It’s one of the things people have been asking for ever since we launched new Yahoo! Mail Beta and we’re really pleased with the results. Hope you are too.

Here’s how to splash about some colour:
- Click on the Options menu (top right, next to Help)
- Roll over the Colours selection
- Make your choice
- Try out the other five (optional)
Enjoy.

keep losing my inbox e-mails need help
October 17th, 2007 at 8:54 am
I am receiving lots of vulgar spam and wish to create a new name for myself to avoid this in future.
I would like a name that is easily alterable so that if this situation arises again I can easily create a new one.
For example add a number after my name which I can change if necessary to create a new identity
When I try to enter as a new user, your system takes me back to my old name.
October 18th, 2007 at 4:48 pm
hello can you put some more colours for yahoo pls
October 18th, 2007 at 8:40 pm
Thats a good idea to spruce up the sitem, its true it does look drabby and horrible in the winter, good work xx
October 18th, 2007 at 9:40 pm
First thing tried to do to get colored mail was to click as told on the options menu next to help but I cannot see one on my page or computer hence cannot advance any further !!
Going downhill now from my last comment where I put seemed quite good to now – will let pou know if it continues (or words to the effect of)
October 18th, 2007 at 9:50 pm
Great about time yahoo caught up with Microsoft Hotmail.Although Hotmail allows you to choose from every single colour in the rainbow and every shade of each individual colour.Not knockinh Yahoo thou you made an effort atleast to let people modify the look of your Yahoo mail.Please add a colour chart in the future.
October 19th, 2007 at 7:35 am
I like it a lot, the colors are very smooth.Good one Yahoo.
October 19th, 2007 at 9:03 am
This is just great! Congratulations Yahoo Team!
October 19th, 2007 at 10:07 am
really fantastic and very much eye catching colours .Very pleasant to work on coloured pages U R really GREAT
October 19th, 2007 at 11:50 am
it good but i don’t like the colours there is
October 19th, 2007 at 8:30 pm
its not letting me click on to the options menu why?
October 19th, 2007 at 8:44 pm
The new yahoo is too slow. It takes long to load up.
Please fix it fast
October 20th, 2007 at 5:06 am
this seems to be a very cool dea.. keep up the good work..
October 20th, 2007 at 8:12 am
hi can this happen to btinternet addresses because i have yahoo and btinternet and only my yaho has changed to coloured
October 20th, 2007 at 8:29 am
much nicer I am now tangerine. How do I install Yahoo toolbar on my talktalk provider.
October 20th, 2007 at 8:56 am
i wish to revert back to the original status how do i do this
October 20th, 2007 at 11:18 am
Yahoo, you are making us proud. Keep it up
October 20th, 2007 at 12:20 pm
very nice work !!!
October 20th, 2007 at 12:30 pm
this is soooooo cool
October 20th, 2007 at 1:13 pm
would appreciate more exiting layouts and colour shemes
October 20th, 2007 at 1:41 pm
It’s good that you are making a change
but me and lot of pleple l talk think the colours are no different to the old ones and just 6 colours maby u can put patterns or bonfireworks background or birthday cake or flowers anything like that. But one coloure is just plain simple and boring i no lot’s of people that think so to that’s why lot’s of my friends move to hotmail. NO EFFENCE think about the peoples idea
October 20th, 2007 at 3:56 pm
I think that this new and improved yahoo is the best!!!!!!!!!!
October 20th, 2007 at 4:10 pm
I started using yahoo mail when i was on a computer course at work and enjoy using it besides improving the web page with colour isn’t time you changed the yahoo mail character or is that the yahoo emblam that wheres the yahoo mail cape can’t you improve on that. And improve on the download speed when clicking on the google button to get into yahoo sometimes takes ages.
yours sincerely
Joe Rice.
October 20th, 2007 at 5:01 pm
Nice job, but
Where is the photo link on the new yahoomail?
October 20th, 2007 at 6:13 pm
thank god
October 20th, 2007 at 9:27 pm
you guys thanks alot the tip ws really helpful.with this nw i can customise my mail box to a colour scheme that is of my taste.cheers all
October 21st, 2007 at 8:12 am
In fact yahoo is progressing and I really love its fitures. But onething I have been encountered is that, I cannot view all my pictures been stored as I was seeing them at first, nowadays.
October 21st, 2007 at 2:31 pm
it great but one probmel the size is too small
October 22nd, 2007 at 3:49 am
w00t . . . the Colors rock!
Can I download more?
October 22nd, 2007 at 9:11 am
make it different then msn hotmail……its all the same as they provide……its fantastic that you are providing the colour system but make it a different, such as themes and setiings….with personalized things to make it different……anything wanted to tell what i really think of yahoo……
October 22nd, 2007 at 2:47 pm
Really life is collourful, since networking is all about connecting with people, I think it really worth it to add collour to people’s life,
October 22nd, 2007 at 3:31 pm
I think I agree with Micheal Amoako. Yahoo is progressing as he said and the fitures are lovable. However, one cannot view pictures stored as it was before. Secondly, I think Yahoo is too slow a little bit. On the whole Yahoo is on top. Keep it up.

October 22nd, 2007 at 5:49 pm
Nice but pity there is no colour that covers all aspects of yahoo, there is not enough colour, all you can see it top box’s and a few lines, why not make it so all backgrounds can be changed also, as white is boring, so colour would do it justice.
October 22nd, 2007 at 7:09 pm
Wahooo!!!!!. hot stuff. am cool tangerine. Been clicking away for 5 hours
October 23rd, 2007 at 8:05 am
Really like the new features.
Search facility is fab
colours add a bit of fun.
keep up the improvements and good work !
thank you
October 23rd, 2007 at 9:56 am
its great – would be nice to get more colours…
the only thing im really looking forward – is more cheeky moving emoticons that u could add any time writing an e-mail… that would be fantastic…
October 23rd, 2007 at 11:52 am
Keep up the good work by all the changes ,, have just started with the new Yahoo
October 23rd, 2007 at 12:53 pm
I agree i think there sould be some cool patterns instead of just the plain colours…. but other than that i think the new yahoo email is much better
October 23rd, 2007 at 1:55 pm
not sure about all the new mail its abit slow and i would rather have the old messaging service back
October 23rd, 2007 at 4:52 pm
i really appreciate what yahoo has done so far. to be honest, i think yahoo!mail is the best. besides making much much easier for us to check our own mails, it has improved a lot on the colour in particular. but a little extra pattern would be nicer. and for those who said hotmail is better, i beg to differ.
October 23rd, 2007 at 5:20 pm
the new colors are cool, but the colors should be added, we know lots of cool colors. part from that i’ve been enjoying the all new yahoo mail !!!
October 23rd, 2007 at 6:56 pm
I don’t care about the colour – but I do wish you hadn’t introduced that awful reading panel. It’s useless and means you cant see as many of your emails as before. It also jumps too much when you scroll down.
October 23rd, 2007 at 9:32 pm
i think that the tips are very useful they have helped me get started now i can even get my mates two use yahoo . i would recomend it 2 any one
October 23rd, 2007 at 9:38 pm
the colors are ok but could be brighter there a bit pale
October 23rd, 2007 at 9:39 pm
nice work! i love colors! thanks.
October 24th, 2007 at 8:52 am
wow,Yahoo! really creative …..
October 24th, 2007 at 9:45 am
Its quite good…but needs more colours
October 24th, 2007 at 9:47 am
I love this colour idea, BUT I can’t make it work, when I follow the instructions nothing happens, and when I go back on to home page this colour info doesn’t come up again what is happening, but apart from this I love yahoo, its great.
October 24th, 2007 at 11:39 am
the colours are ok, i love yahoo keep it up.
October 24th, 2007 at 1:11 pm
like the changes that has been made its cool, but loads bit slow
October 24th, 2007 at 2:44 pm
Boring colours….dissapointed.
October 24th, 2007 at 2:52 pm
the colours are cool but it would be nice if there were a bigger variety perhaps rainbow colour and introduce some cool backgrounds.
October 24th, 2007 at 3:40 pm
Another yahoo innovation. Its wonderful
October 24th, 2007 at 4:02 pm
New Yahoo Mail has some good change but I will continue to have to use classic beause you have deleted the option of choosing comic sans ms to compsoe in!! Please include it.
October 24th, 2007 at 4:49 pm
Here I am again, it came up on the home page I honed in as quick as a flash, really excited, I WANT COLOUR, BUT, pressed the right bits nothing happening, how frustrated am I, I do so want COLOUR.
October 24th, 2007 at 7:50 pm
Am I doing somethint wrong I followed the instructions and the colour is not changing why not?
October 24th, 2007 at 9:43 pm
I LOVE THE COLORS THAT THERE ARE TO CHOOSE FROM!
October 24th, 2007 at 10:29 pm
IT WOULD BE NICE IF I COULD CHANGE THE BLINDING BRIGHT BACKGROUND WHITE INSTEAD OF JUST THE MINOR DETAIL!
WHY IS THE TEXT NOW A 3rd OF THE SIZE IT WAS BEFORE???????????????????????
October 25th, 2007 at 9:13 am
I LOVE YAHOO BUT THIS NEW ONE IS WAY TOO SLOW….
October 25th, 2007 at 9:37 am
nice job ! now i can chatting with my friend or family easier . congrat
October 25th, 2007 at 10:08 am
I like the multicolor idea, it shows your team is thinking and planning.Varieties is what life is all about.However, not everybody will like it.But keep dreaming and I think your team has a good head on your shoulder.Cheers.
October 25th, 2007 at 10:20 am
Although I can’t get used to the new yahoo this tip is great!
It’ll tak me a while to get used to it..when I go to see my calendar it opens in a new page..is that gonna every time i open it?Anyway, thanks a lot!!
October 25th, 2007 at 11:20 am
Nice, but how about having notepaper designs?
October 25th, 2007 at 12:00 pm
can we have more variety like get skins like with blogs?
October 25th, 2007 at 3:36 pm
yahoo is way better than hotmail its safer and loads of fun
andi really do love its fitures
YAHOO ROC’S
October 25th, 2007 at 5:02 pm
I am a fool, of course it works, I hadn’t gone onto my inbox page, so now I am in colour and it’s great, so just ignore my last comments, I am still alearner on the computer, but I love it!
October 25th, 2007 at 6:22 pm
Cool…The new yahoo mail is really cool…but i think u need high speed net connection….i have good speed and i njoy using the new yahoo mail
October 25th, 2007 at 8:30 pm
‘Well Done’ you guys
October 26th, 2007 at 6:39 am
I want to go back to my old yahoo. This onr is not user friendly. How do I go back?
October 26th, 2007 at 7:16 am
It won’t let me see the colours when I click on them–why?
October 26th, 2007 at 7:18 am
IT’S A GOOD TO MAKE SOME CHANGES BUT THE COLOURS ARE’NT GOOD AT ALL.
October 26th, 2007 at 9:27 am
its so cool….so colorful too……….
October 26th, 2007 at 9:30 am
it won’t let me click on options menu why?
October 26th, 2007 at 9:54 am
I don’t have the headings “Send Feedback, Mobile, Options, Help” underneath the Search box on my screen. Not on the Inbox screen, or any other screen. So I can’t choose colours. Or get Help. Can anyone tell me why these headings are missing?
Regards
October 26th, 2007 at 10:32 am
hi i think its really good but i think u should be able to choose more than one colour at a time and have more colour scemes and maybe some patterns to choose from but apart from that i think its great and stops it from being boring.
October 26th, 2007 at 11:39 am
this is great improvement. i like it keep up the good effort
October 26th, 2007 at 3:31 pm
I think yahoo its very good too me because,i can contact friends and check mensagem.its all about emails it s helpful for those who use internet,but sametimes i find a litter be difficult to use.
October 26th, 2007 at 4:28 pm
yea,its cool but i dont like the colours that are available…
October 26th, 2007 at 11:51 pm
it,s ok but slow to add attachment photo,s
October 27th, 2007 at 3:26 am
I got all excited thinking that you could mark individual emails in different colours for easy recognition just like you can with Apple Mac folders … that would be much more helpful and exciting.
October 27th, 2007 at 8:07 am
itz ok but there are not alot of choice of colors
October 27th, 2007 at 10:29 am
i think its good idea but colours aint dat great
October 27th, 2007 at 11:32 am
i luv yahoo,its so fun when i am chatting with my friends outside ireland. i luv yahoo messenger its makes me send stuff 2 my dad online.i think 4 d mail with colour its not 2 bad but if u could try to improve by adding paterns ………..expecialy flower it beautiful it will be amazingor shapes e.g love heart. this is what i think
October 27th, 2007 at 2:24 pm
hi,
i love the new yahoo mail its great! the pink is lovley!! people u shouldnt insult it. because some people, wouldnt want patterns and bright stuff around they’re email inbox!?
bye well done yahoo !
ps im fine with 1 colour. plz dont change it!!
October 27th, 2007 at 3:17 pm
how many people with B.T Yahoo have as many problems as me with login sessions expired which means you cannot access your email, and have to put in your password 10 to 15 times before its finally excepted only to find login session is expired, I now have to delete history, cookies, tm files every day and I am paying
October 27th, 2007 at 3:27 pm
can u get avatars on this like u could on the old one???
October 27th, 2007 at 3:33 pm
ilove yahoo mail
October 27th, 2007 at 7:39 pm
I don’t see why this had to be done because we can choose “themes” for the inbox also from Options, so this doesn’t make any difference. I’d prefer seeing free stationery for everyone’s use =)
October 27th, 2007 at 9:50 pm
the colour selection is very limited .Please allow for more colour choice getting the reader to read the message has colour and life
October 28th, 2007 at 3:56 pm
you should put a bigger range of colours. or allow the member to create a theme. for exaple have leaves in green for nature etc. have oceans in blue etc. i think you should have a tool where you can pick your own colour from different shades. or even add your own pictues for your background.
October 28th, 2007 at 4:56 pm
New colours are great i just wish i could get a message tone to let me know when i got a new message,
October 28th, 2007 at 6:07 pm
love the pink
October 28th, 2007 at 7:28 pm
It was nice but the colours were a bit dull and not atrative but nice.
October 28th, 2007 at 9:41 pm
excellent mail
October 29th, 2007 at 9:37 am
the color does not change permanent, every time I log in I have to change to the color I prefer.
October 29th, 2007 at 9:40 am
you all do a great job but its so slow on the ;library computer .
Why is this?
October 29th, 2007 at 11:05 am
I find Yahoo much better then outlook express for my mail, because if one makes a format, one loses everything with outlook express. The only thing is that lately the Inbox in Yahoo, takes to long to open
October 29th, 2007 at 11:33 am
I’m unhappy with the new yahoo email pages , how do I get back to using the old style ????
October 29th, 2007 at 3:15 pm
i dont like it
the colours given do not go with the blue!
ive stuck with the defualt colour :@
October 29th, 2007 at 4:04 pm
hi i like the idea but i would like the colour black because of windows vista.
October 29th, 2007 at 4:26 pm
I think it is a great idea and you should put more colours on to keep other people happy. Also while I’m here on my avatao i clicked away my unicorn and my wings but when i clicked on one the other one would come back I dont understand please help me xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox
October 29th, 2007 at 4:41 pm
Just Love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
October 29th, 2007 at 5:27 pm
Need more shades of blue!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
October 29th, 2007 at 6:38 pm
Bt yahoo has blocked me for some reason so i have lost all my contacts why is that?
October 29th, 2007 at 7:06 pm
I like the idea of it all and think it’s funky but why can’t they have a bigger selection of colours and stuff, its only six colour, I think there should be more!
October 29th, 2007 at 9:11 pm
i want my old yahoo back :-(
October 30th, 2007 at 6:26 am
getting started today
October 30th, 2007 at 7:08 am
i do love the new yahoo beta, but it sometimes take too long to load up! !
October 30th, 2007 at 8:14 am
i want black,red,yellow and orange
October 30th, 2007 at 8:55 am
l realy like this new yahoo infact is great.Good job.
October 30th, 2007 at 9:58 am
love yahoo
October 30th, 2007 at 12:21 pm
I can’t get the colour I want
October 30th, 2007 at 12:55 pm
Its nice but can we have more colors or skins!!!
They are a bit boring! also how do I chat on instant messenger?
It keeps telling me to add people to my list, i have but it keeps saying the same thing! Colors are ok! but it would be nice to have different designs like myspace, face book or bebo! Yahoo has been around much longer!!!!!! Come on yahoo! where’s the red one!!
October 30th, 2007 at 2:35 pm
New yahoo is slow and takes time to load up.Pl look into it.Rest of it is fine.Congrats.
October 30th, 2007 at 10:29 pm
I like the style of the new yahoo mail however I deliberately avoid having news on any page as it is a distraction. Is there any way I can close this screen.
October 30th, 2007 at 11:45 pm
I think its a great idea , one suggestion please, could it be possible to change the colour of the white background as well. I am colour sensitive=asfedic and white hurts as does red. Besides that It would be rather pleasant to have something other than white.
November 1st, 2007 at 1:17 am
To say the truth, i don’t like this new yahoo stuff, however, i am trying it with the hope that you will make some necessary improvement sooner rather than later, if not ‘ar dae dock am reverse’ !!!
November 1st, 2007 at 6:36 am
Does not currently show up. Even this form for leaving comments is almost unreadable with the colours used as default.
Give us an option of colours, not just wishy washy pastel colours.
November 1st, 2007 at 9:11 am
Wow! This is so cool! Unbelievable! makes mail more interesting to read!
November 1st, 2007 at 11:40 am
Great. I love the pink!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
November 1st, 2007 at 3:05 pm
pink is excellent
November 2nd, 2007 at 2:27 am
Green its my choice
November 2nd, 2007 at 3:18 am

November 2nd, 2007 at 6:04 am

November 2nd, 2007 at 6:39 am

November 2nd, 2007 at 10:21 am
i am unable to use the colour mail that i would like as the advertisement is blocking the drop down panel
November 2nd, 2007 at 10:22 am
clicked on options as you said but nothing happened wot can i do….? thanks.
November 2nd, 2007 at 1:04 pm
yahoo beta was excellent. can swtich inbox and chat messenger in same time…. but i dislike advertisment on the right… it very disturbing… tq.
November 2nd, 2007 at 2:43 pm
I LIKE THAT OCEAN ONE ITS CLASS
November 2nd, 2007 at 2:59 pm
personally i find msn,way better to operate as i have the same problems as the others on here with logging on and especially adding contacts.the adding contacts is the hardest bit to me,seems stupid compaired to msn”s add a contact screen.
i ve tryed yours and several times it hasnt added my contacts very easily and often wont let me even add yahoo users.
i think a whole rethink is needed to compete with msn”s way of working.
many thanks wayne.
November 2nd, 2007 at 11:30 pm
Cool stuff, I went for pink!
November 3rd, 2007 at 5:59 am
Grass is also GOOD !!!!!
November 3rd, 2007 at 10:40 am
can you make the whole inbox multi-coloured and not just one colour.
Pls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! can you do more colours!

I love pink!
November 3rd, 2007 at 10:56 am

Purple is soooooooooooooooo relaxing
November 6th, 2007 at 2:16 pm

November 6th, 2007 at 2:27 pm
I love pink, please customize my mail to pink
November 6th, 2007 at 5:39 pm
i realy think it’s pointless
November 7th, 2007 at 9:41 am
I think there should be a much wider range of colours.
November 7th, 2007 at 10:01 am
I love the Yahoo!mail it’s just great ,now it’s easier to talk with our friends faraway .THANKS TO THE YAHOO! CREW!!!!!!
November 7th, 2007 at 10:24 am

November 7th, 2007 at 3:14 pm

November 7th, 2007 at 4:47 pm
I really like the idea of the colours in yahoo, but i would like more colours
November 7th, 2007 at 5:56 pm
yay pretty colours! lol x x x x x x x x x
November 7th, 2007 at 5:58 pm

November 8th, 2007 at 4:47 am
Excellent job done by yahoo. Is it possible to customize colors so that we can use the mix of different colors and shades. thanks form the core of our heart to bring colorful yahoo.
November 8th, 2007 at 8:15 am
giv us the colourfullness
November 8th, 2007 at 9:35 am
i love the now look of hayoo
November 8th, 2007 at 11:48 am
tried to change colour to pink, it looks like the Orange advertisement id blocking the bottom of the drop down menu. Any fix for this?
November 8th, 2007 at 12:32 pm
how many people with B.T Yahoo have as many problems as me with login sessions expired which means you cannot access your email, and have to put in your password 10 to 15 times before its finally excepted only to find login session is expired, I now have to delete history, cookies, tm files every day and I am paying& in addition it very slow
November 8th, 2007 at 3:54 pm
Agree with some of the posts: the colour schemes available are a bit hard on the eyes.
A few colour schemes for those who are on their PC most of the day would be nice :)
November 8th, 2007 at 3:55 pm
I love the light blue and yellow
November 8th, 2007 at 4:05 pm
Like the new coloured pages, but why does my yahoo tab tell me I have unread emails when my inbox is empty, And I also keep losing mail.
November 8th, 2007 at 8:18 pm
People are telling me that emails they send me are bouncing back to them…is there any way to correct this so that it stops happening please?
November 8th, 2007 at 11:31 pm
i love all the preeeeeeeettttyyyy cooooooolllloooors. they aaaaarrrrrreeee soooooo beautiful. :)
November 10th, 2007 at 5:11 am

THANK YOU YAHOO!
November 11th, 2007 at 12:06 am
Hey yahoo cheers like my new yahoo mail colour!
November 11th, 2007 at 8:46 am
boring only 6 colours to choose from. how about been able to choose your own colours or maybe to upload your own pictures.
November 11th, 2007 at 9:52 am
i would to benefit from this another fantastic multi colour graphics design.
November 11th, 2007 at 11:33 pm
Do not have the toolbar you describe so cannot access the option of the clolurs
November 12th, 2007 at 2:29 am
seems new yahoo mail is taking too long to load comparing with classic.please make up something
November 12th, 2007 at 12:41 pm
Hey, the colours thing is great, but I’ve had that for ages…. this isn’t new for 2007…… I will check out the other things though.
November 12th, 2007 at 2:08 pm
I have 4 different Yahoo email adresses. How can I retrieve all 4 at one place?
—
Hi Paul,
You can add extra email addresses to your account. Just click on “Options”, then “Accounts” then click “Add or edit an account”. Once in the Mail Accounts section you can add up to 5 other email addresses to check mail from.
Hope that helps,

November 18th, 2007 at 7:26 pm
Can someone put more colours like silver, red and balk on pls
November 19th, 2007 at 9:59 am
Hia Think you need to add more brighter colors and maybe animations and style fonts that we can personalise . It can get pretty boring reading mail from a dull inbox .
Defo need to brighten up . But good job with every thing else . xxx
November 19th, 2007 at 4:42 pm
Its a nice to have a pink in my screen. i have got the problem that it takes a long time to load in my computer. plz fix it fast.

November 20th, 2007 at 12:00 pm

November 27th, 2007 at 4:12 pm
If you switch to old yahoo, can you switch back.
—
Hi Katie,
You can switch back and forth as much as you like.
If you want to switch from All-new Mail to Classic follow these instructions: http://ymailuk.com/blog1/2007/11/01/switch-to-classic/
If you want to switch from Classic to all-new Mail follow these instructions:
http://ymailuk.com/blog1/2007/11/01/switch-to-new-mail/
I sometimes switch between the two versions a few times a day :-)
Thanks,
Andrew – Yahoo! Mail Team
November 28th, 2007 at 4:20 pm
Great!!! My new yahoo is perfect!!!
November 30th, 2007 at 1:58 pm
We need more skins and better animations please!!
Also mail seems to be taking for ever to appear in INBOX from hotmail and tiscali, Also receiving more spam than ever and seem to be having more problems with settings sticking- for example when creating a new message it lets me type in email address but when i try to compose the message, it wont let me put the cursor in text box to type message???
I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED WHEN YAHOO NEVER CHANGED OVER 100′S OF MY PHOTOS TO FLIXSTER – AND WHEN I TRIED TO FIND THEM THEY HAVE ALL GONE???
December 2nd, 2007 at 10:39 pm
I can’t find the options menu but i think it is great to have a colour yahoo!
Great fun.
Thanks

December 3rd, 2007 at 7:43 am
the new yahoo is soooooo cool, i love it, but it is to slow.
please keep on the up grading.
thanks.
December 5th, 2007 at 5:57 pm
Nice idea – my only comment is that the drop-down interface is a bit painful to use – it took several attempts for me to change the colour, especially the colours that were lower down the list. Thought it might be worth pointing out in case you are using this sort of interface in other products you have in development.
December 5th, 2007 at 7:15 pm
hiya! i think it is cool! my yahoo is now even better including the new tahoo version! wow! so great! swetaxxx
December 6th, 2007 at 4:37 am
pink is my color
December 9th, 2007 at 1:42 am
For goodness sake! Why don’t you put colours on the calender, like you do on the mail page.Dur! How hard can it be?
December 11th, 2007 at 4:36 pm
My email address seems to work when it feels like it. Even when people double check my address there is still no guarantee that their email will get through.
December 11th, 2007 at 6:50 pm
my new yahoo is great
December 17th, 2007 at 7:01 am
1. In blueyonder there is the option to go straight to the inbox when opening E-mail.
Could Yahoo use this option?
2. Users are invited to transfer their address books, but the range of options does not include Blueyonder. Why not?
It’s a slow business re-writing the whole list.
December 17th, 2007 at 4:05 pm
i rly like the new yahoo mail! and it’s great that i can talk to people from it that are on MSN, even though i am not! but i wish that when i use the messenger on yahoo and talk to people that are currently on MSN, that it doesn’t say my email, but that i could get a chance to change it to my name instead, so ppl know who they are talking to. anyway, i think that new colours idea was great! but hotmail also had that, and they have a bigger variety though. so could you please, add more colours! :D
P.S: I think it would be GREAT if you also could add paterns to decorate your inbox instead of just plain colours!
thank you
December 18th, 2007 at 6:07 pm
pretty cooli have the grass color
December 19th, 2007 at 9:40 pm
As 5, no help menu or options on my page.
December 22nd, 2007 at 9:05 am
I love the new yahoo mail but, can someone please make run a bit faster?
January 2nd, 2008 at 9:08 am
I never new this can be done! thats fantastico, Purple is my colour
January 3rd, 2008 at 9:10 pm
thats a great ideea! we can personalize our yahoo mail!!! nice work boys!!!;););) good luck and don’t forget…you have allready a lot of friends, here!!!
January 14th, 2008 at 6:05 am
I have read all the bad things about the new e-mail and am suffering from a lot of the problems. cant get anything on the toolbars to work. I can’t delete e-mails, can’t empty trash or spam
can’t get back to classic. Can anyboby please help me get classic back.
January 15th, 2008 at 2:22 pm
cool ive chosen violet and it looks great on my yahoo mail my favorite colour is blue but my sis has chosen it and she will think im copying her if i do. i think the idea is really cool!
January 17th, 2008 at 10:46 pm
Great idea, I chose pink although I’m not a ‘pinky’ type of girl and it lit up my screen beautifuly. I agree we need some colour in the winter. Here in the Czech Republic we tend to have a beautiful winter with plenty of snow but it can also be very gloomy (as it is at the moment) so thanks and all the best in 2008.xxx
January 18th, 2008 at 7:05 pm
Pretty lousy colours. All kinda putrid and odd looking. What happened with the old mix ‘n’ match colours on the old yahoo! Sorry, but this collection of colours is too small and they are really uneventful! Someone’s being a little too clever and not giving us much choice.
Back to the drawing board, eh?
January 23rd, 2008 at 11:19 am
Thanks 4 the improvements done. Its alot easier for us to now access our mails especially previous without going through a process of clicking NEXT . Thanks for the colours too.
February 3rd, 2008 at 5:55 am
i like the nu thing but the problem is that its alitle slow
February 4th, 2008 at 3:10 pm
Bravo! this is outrightly wonderful. I was able to edit a forwarded message on there! keep researching and keep giving us value for communication
February 5th, 2008 at 10:47 am
Hi – great work – however, I think a more useful enhancement would be a SEARCH function – I.E. So you can retrieve only e-mails with %words% in the Subject or all from a specific sender.
Thanks
February 5th, 2008 at 6:57 pm
I think yahoo is fab because i can talk to all my friends without havig to download the yahoo chat thing and my friends dont have to as well and yahoo os cool because of avatar pic
GO YAHOO!

February 6th, 2008 at 10:22 am
am happy for a blend of colour.welldone.
i wish to use this medium to ask if my picture can be uploaded to show right on the new yahoo page.
can there be a system in place enabling me to blend my colour or upload my picture as background and place @ where the messages appear?
Really ,there is no network like yahoo.you have multitudes of people world wide..welldone…
February 6th, 2008 at 4:22 pm
like the colours there great but like to have a few more to it please as there could be days where we feel grey and there coud be days where we feel to be greener thann the grass and bluer than the skys so a veriety of clolours PLEASE
February 7th, 2008 at 7:37 pm
How come, most times when I add a new folder, I loose my place in the “in-Box”, and other times it just freezes and I had to close Yahoo Beta and then sign in again, it’s very annoying. Can you make it easier like the Yahoo Original, where it had a “New Folder” option in the “Move” drop-down menu. Thank You.
February 12th, 2008 at 3:10 am
The spam filter worked fine for a while but now an increasing number are getting through to my In Box. All are the African scams. Is there any way to stop this?
February 13th, 2008 at 6:09 pm
yahoo is doing a great job well done job to you over there
April 12th, 2008 at 1:40 am
Pleae put comic sans back as an option for the fonts. It should have never been removed. It’s the font of choice at my job…
I’ll be staying with classic until Comic Sans is an option in the new Mail interface…
