    Evidently Yahoo started rolling this "New" version out June 10th and will continue through July.

    Judging from this statement in an email support page from AT&T Yahoo, it won't be possible to return to older versions:

    Well, it was possible for a time to switch between the old and the new. I haven't been switched to the new version yet. But if I don't like it or it causes me problems I'll simply not use it anymore.

    Won't bother them, won't bother me.

    As for "what's up with yahoo mail", money is probably at the bottom of it.

    I'm using the new Yahoo but I clicked on the gear icon (top right) and one of the options is Basic. I chose that.

    Goldenskull I can't follow the rules

    If you are talking about switching back to yahoo mail classic there is a way to do it i hate the newer yahoo mail it is to complicated and too um i should say annoying.

    I still have the yahoo mail classic system works three times better then then newer version.There is away to switch from the newer yahoo to the classic,I do not remember the link for it.

    For Yahoo Mail Classic (old) try the following address.

    [noparse]http://us.mc1229.mail.yahoo.com/mc/welcome?ymv=0[/noparse]

    If it doesn't work properly you might have to change us at the beginning to your local country abbreviation.
    Your country abbreviation should appear in the address for the new Yahoo Mail as well.

    Yeah, mine switched to the new version today as well and changing the country abbreviation doesn't help.

    Over the months there have been many tricks and url addresses to get back to Yahoo Mail Classic but eventually Yahoo shuts them down somehow, I have used many url addresses that work for a while but now return 404 Not Found or just take me to the new version.

    I find the new version hard to read so I will keep looking for a solution to return to Yahoo Mail Classic but I have the feeling that Yahoo is going to do all it can to make us use the new version.
    Oh well :(
