I don't like the new ATT.net email format.
How do I go back to the old one (Classic)?

We are all PAYING CUSTOMERS! Free Memberships/Subscriptions are not FREE! They are paid for by the U.S. Government. That means; We The People Pay for all of the Real and Fictitious.
Wanna try the Bull-Ends again, or would you like to guess how I know?

Are you out of your mind? You must be making this up.

Which mail do I have? Do not like the mail list that has a trash can off to the right side of each listed mail. Did this on Chrome, clicked the gear icon and chose classic. No way to go back. It shows OK when using Firefox . I like the one that has archive, move, delete, spam and the 3 dots at the top of mail list. Which do I have on Chrome or Firefox.

I just lived chatted with ATT, Were are all out of luck. They have deleted the CLASSIC email all together, we are all now stuck with BASIC email.
The classic was great, the basic lacks so much, including inline photos, save to drafts don't save, when searching for an email you no longer have
a choice of To or From or dates , hard to sift through old emails, the new basic just lumps it all together. You can no longer bold , italicize , shall I go on?
This " improvement" is no improvement it is back wards.
They call it Classic for a reason, don't mess with a classic.
I am now looking for another company after 20 years on yahoo mail. Google is not an option for me, so anyone have suggestions
for a close second to the Classic email.
Losing drafts cost me time and money this week, as well as 2 emails I know were sent that never arrived.

Looks like now there is Basic or New - New is similar (although not identical - still will take some adjusting!) to Classic. The "New Email" is not functional in Internet Explorer so using that, you have only Basic. They tell you that you need to upgrade to Chrome or Firefox to use the "New Email" and I am finding it does work in those. It also appears to work in Microsoft Edge (so far) and there may be other options I'm not aware of.
(The biggest difference I'm finding so far between New and Classic aside from some relatively minor appearance changes is that it looks like the little refresh circular arrow thing that used to be on the left side where it says "inbox" is gone....but seems that if I click where it used to be, it still refreshes the mailbox...)

Most people having issues with the (Ha-ha) "NEW" email have given up and don't bother.They've known my take on it since before the change. They kept sending me updates. I kept sending (Not Nice) Replies.
No one at ATT gives a Flying Fiddler's Flatulence. They only care about the FREE Money they get from our Government. The "NEW" email only has to work. It doesn't have to work well and there's NO REAL Customer Service.

At the very least... I'm thankful it works. That's something. There's NO REAL HELP/Customer Service, but it's the same with any similar (Ha-ha) service provider.The last time they sent me an Email stating I've earned Phony "Points"... I Replied with a suggestion on where and what they can do with them. They never Replied.Sorry, I can't be more helpful. They only care about the Government Money they get.
