Last Updated: July 20, 2011

We have removed the "Return to Original Mail" link from the help menu as we're strongly encouraging all users to migrate to the newest version of Yahoo! Mail. We will continue to invest heavily in the latest version of Yahoo! Mail, further improving it and delivering more compelling features to our users.

We know that changing to a new interface can seem daunting, so we’ve done everything possible to make the transition easy. We have created help pages specifically for users who have recently switched to the newest version of Yahoo! Mail, highlighting differences that you may notice: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/ymail/migrating/.

Switch to Gmail -- you'll never look back.  (Also, if Yahoo Mail supports POP3 protocol, you can configure your Gmail account to check for new mail from your old Yahoo account.)

I have a Yahoo account, but I use Outlook or an e-mail client on my phone or iPad. I never use the web based interface, so any changes don't bother me.

That said, I also have a gmail account and the only reason I keep the yahoo account is I have so many things tied to it. But I don't use the web intrface for that either.

Two Methods to Switch back to Classic Mail:

First Method:
A •Safe Work Around• - in Firefox or Google Chrome Browser.
(Did Not Work In IE8)
Click "Tools".....click "Options"......click "Content"
UN-check/Disable •enable JavaScript•
click OK.

Log back in to Yahoo! Mail through Your Browser -- Switch to Classic Mail....
THEN RE-Enable your Java Script.
=============================
2nd Method:
Lower your Screen Display Resolution:
When The Screen Resolution is too Low for the "New Yahoo! Mail" (formerly Beta),
A message appears asking "Do you want to switch to Mail Classic?"
Click ►"Yes"......
Once Done, RE-Set your Screen Resolution.

♦IMPORTANT NOTE -- Do The Screen Resolution in Stages!
A Screen Resolution less than the Original Setting causes Unstable Effects
in the way web pages and formats appears.

Found on Yahoo answers.  Mike

I think any switch back is going to be temporary until they remove the old version permanently. The e-mail I received back in April said:

If you don’t upgrade now, we recommend that you upgrade soon. Your current version of Yahoo! Mail will be available for the next few months, but eventually you will need to upgrade to the newest version of Yahoo! Mail , or review Yahoo! Mail Help for other options.
