To those of us that hate the new mail, how about we bombard the yahoo twitter account with our disgust?
Try @yahoocare (yeah right, as if) #yahoosucks
Sorry Trooper6387 that is no use to me at all. What I want is the functionality I had before. I want to be able to choose how many emails I see on a page, not have to scroll through page after page. I want my emails to move to the next one after I delete not send me back to the inbox every time. I want an 'upgrade' to improve function not remove it.
And there is another option, there always is, I can (and currently am) doing what consumers have done for centuries. I'm voting with my feet and my wallet. Yahoo will get no more money or custom from me and I will tell as many people as I like about the bad service and lack of consumer consultation.

It won't help...the change over is complete now...no other options
I have to admit that I did not like the New version when it first came out. Like me, if you just give it a chance and learn how it works, you will like it as much as the Classic. The below links should help.

Classic version is no longer available. You now have the New version or the Basic version of it. In addition...ALL of your emails are on one page. The best way I have found to scroll down through them is to place your pointer in the scroll box on the right side and ONE click to move your emails down/up one page and either holding down the pointer with the left click of your mouse or RAPIDLY clicking on the mouse to move the emails up/down RAPIDLY.

If you want to go to a "basic" version (not Classic which is gone) then select mail options under the gear icon in the upper right. On the "general" options page scroll to the bottom. There you have a choice of "full featured" or "basic". Click on SAVE when done. If you decide on the Basic format some features will be missing...open this link for details....

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 you will have 25 per page(that is what I have)AND you will have page numbers in the upper right. Some answers have suggested you can change how many per page through OPTIONS, but I do not have it...
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++…
There is one option in the New format if you want fewer emails per page..starting with six...Hover your pointer over the GEAR...upper right...then MAIL OPTIONS...then place a check mark in the box left of "Enable Preview Pane" and click on SAVE...Once the screen is up you can increase the number of emails displayed by placing your cursor on the line just below the list(goes left to right)click and hold down the left click of your mouse and drag it down. Even though you have a few less emails than the normal view.....You will still have to scroll down through all your emails as they are ALL still on ONE page.
