Having had the same Yahoo email for over 2 decades... Yahoo mail decides it want to change the layout to the new and improved version of mail, which totally sucks... Looks like its for little kids..

Anyone else have this problem?

Is gmail the only option?

Can MS outlook swap between multiple yahoo accounts?

How to I contact yahoo to tell them that they freaking suck and need to leave sheet alone?

What options are there?

Boomer lost in space... Thanks

The forced Yahoo email changes are terrible. You might be able to go back to the classic email page using this link.

I have switched my email address of almost all important contacts over to gmail. I find it a way better than yahoo. Rarely get spam emails sent to my inbox, unlike yahoo.

You can use a Yahoo email address with Outlook, or with Thunderbird, or with a number of email clients.

You can use multiple accounts with Outlook at the same time (I think I have 4 connected, including Yahoo)

Your feedback goes nowhere. Don't waste your time. It's like screaming, "Representative!!!" into the voice response system that won't do anything until you start dropping f bombs.

I totally agree with you, it's terrible. They did this awhile back too, but gave you the option to revert. It doesn't look like that's an option anymore.

But doesn't gmail charge like 15 a month for space... And you would need different accounts for each g mail?

What yahoo freaking did was terrible.

If you care at all about privacy, Gmail, Outlook, and Yahoo should be avoided.

quote:

Surveillance and Privacy:
Google scans all email content to build advertising profiles, tracking purchases, travel, and communications. It lacks default end-to-end encryption, meaning Google holds the keys to your data, and it collects extensive metadata including location and device information.

Security and Account Lockouts:
Because Gmail is tied to your broader digital identity, a single breach can compromise all linked services. Additionally, Google can suspend accounts without warning or human review for perceived policy violations, potentially locking users out of their entire online existence.
