How do I get my old Yahoo mail format back?

How do I get the old yahoo mail format back?

• The new format for the yahoo mail is NOT user friendly. Can someone please tell me how to get out of the NEW format and back to normalcy?

• Answer:

  For those that have been changed to the Newest format the below links will help somewhat. For what it does not cover you can ask specific questions to receive an answer. Once the change has occurred to your email format you cannot change it other than switching to the Basic Format. http://help.yahoo.com/kb/index?y=PROD_MAIL_ML&locale=en_US&page=content&id=SLN8822&impressions=false ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++... Hover your pointer over the GEAR...upper right...click on SETTINGS...click on VIEWING EMAIL. Place a check mark left of BASIC......click SAVE. NOTE: This format operates faster than the Full Featured format If you decide on this format some features will be missing. .. http://help.yahoo.com/kb/index?page=content&id=SLN5171&actp=search&viewlocale=en_US&searchid=1371527333887&locale=en_US&y=PROD_MAIL_ML +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++... Note: for you that like only so many emails per page...use this. I do not see where you can determine how many per page, but will have 25 or 50 per page (that is what I have) AND you will have page OPTIONS. Some users have indicated they can access their account to change how many per page, but I do not have it.. I say 25 or 50 per page because I have more than one email account..One of them has 25 per page.. the other has 50 per page....I have no idea why this happens. In addition, to move from one page forward/backward click on the single arrow on either side of the page number..upper right. Clicking on the double arrow wil send you back to the start or end depending on which double arrow you click on. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++... This HELP link is specifically about CONTACTS in the Newest email page change http://help.yahoo.com/kb/index?locale=en_US&y=PROD_MAIL_ML&page=content&id=SLN15907 For your convenience this link is an overview of the recent changes to the email page http://help.yahoo.com/kb/index?y=PROD_MAIL_ML&page=content&id=SLN15897&locale=en_US +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++... This may also help. If you only see 5 or 6 emails in your inbox and you want to go back to the full view in your inbox hover your pointer over the GEAR...upper right...click on SETTINGS, then VIEWING EMAIL..scroll down to PREVIEW PANE..click on the down arrow.. click on NONE...then SAVE. You can also go back and forth by clicking on VIEW above your inbox emails. It is in the drop down menu. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++... EMAILS....deleting one and "show the next email "OR "Go back to the original folder". Going back to the original folder should be used if you do not want to open up the next email automatically. Useful if the next one happens to be Spam. Those options are available by hovering your pointer over the GEAR...upper right...click on SETTINGS... click on VIEWING EMAIL....and going down to "After moving a message". Clicking on the down arrow at the end of the box will bring up the other option...when done..click on SAVE. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++... To display the options you can get by SORT BY DATE in the Older format do the following. Hover the pointer over the GEAR...upper right Click on SETTINGS....click on VIEWING EMAIL...remove, if any, check marks to the left of Enable Conversations/Show snipets...click SAVE when done. Now when your inbox is displayed click on VIEW above your emails on the right side to bring up the drop down menu with those options. Tabs is now back.. http://help.yahoo.com/kb/index?page=cont... NOTE; to place the check marks to the left of Enable Conversations/show snipets.. click on VIEWING EMAIL. ...place the check mark in the box left of Enable Conversations...click on SAVE. You should do this so when you click on VIEW above the emails the drop down menu will be mostly different and you will know the different options and how to access the different views. NOTE; leaving the check mark to the left of Enable Conversations/show snipets will change the format as follows. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++... When your inbox email list is displayed you will see part of the text following the Subject matter. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++... When you Reply/Forward an email the original text will be ABOVE your added text. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++... When you send/receive messages you may see "ME" instead of your email address in your Inbox and Sent folders when observing your emails.NOTE: your recipients will see your FROM name in the inbox and your email address when they open up the email...not "ME"... +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++... If you receive more than one message with the same SUBJECT you might end up with one email displayed with a numeral after the senders name indicating how many you have. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++... I still have not figured out how to change the SUBJECT when you forward/reply to an email..Until that is solved you will have to remove the check marks as described above to go to the other format. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++...
