Try this:
Click the gear in the upper right corner.
Click on Settings.
Click on Viewing email.
Go down to Mail version and choose "Basic."
Click the Save button.
That will refresh your mail so it uses a basic format. If you ever want the newer format again, click "Switch to the newest Yahoo! Mail" at the top of the screen.

Master 1 2 3 is right! It looks a bit different still but it's similar to the old format. :D Because the main thing that bothers me about the new Yahoo is that the replying to emails was difficult, saving drafts, etc., and viewing it as Basic at least changes how you can reply to emails which I'm happy with..

I do not like the new changes at all. I would like to change back to the old version. The changes were made without notice and/or consent. After much difficult searching, I finally found this sub-link and clicked on the further sub-link for "I want to change back to previous version" and get only the canned answer: "Unfortunately, it is not possible to switch to the previous design of Yahoo! Mail." The new version does not allow me to sort and search mail as quickly or easily as the old version. It is dramatically more difficult to sort and find email messages - especially in a rapid manner. This takes from me my most precious asset - TIME. This new version COSTS me TIME and reduces my efficiency and effectivity. Please give me back the old version ASAP. It was FAR better. The longer this takes, the more damage you do. Do not delay.

Thank you "Master". Your solution worked. I too hate the new format. I am a software developer and used to new changes in formats and views etc but I really do hate the new structure for the emails. Works fine for sms text messages on mobile phones but not on my email which I want to keep organised in "my" way, not in conversation format.

The new format is just stupid. I can't even read an entire email message with this really stupid format. If at all possible I'll find a new place to get my messages.
