There is no going back, there is only the new version.

You can adjust a few things using the “Settings”, you have to try it

Samsung has an app for you that is optimized precisely for their devices:

The only disastrous thing about webmail is when someone uses it on their smartphone. How come? It’s not even intended for something like that! Of course you can use it, but it’s just unnecessarily complicated and not user-friendly. As was said, set up the mail app and you’re good. Samsung Email is already preinstalled on every Samsung cell phone. Set it up once and you have a completely different level of ease of use. Other cell phones and iPhones also have a mail app, often including Gmail, or you can download it for free if necessary. Reason: You use an email app on your cell phone. Webmail is intended for PCs.

The link above provides good step-by-step instructions on how to set this up so that you can send and receive emails in the app.

I know it’s “just” the community here, but why exactly is there no way back to the old version? Are there technical reasons for this? You could simply see that the new version has clearly deteriorated usability and switch back to the old version until you have adapted the quality of the new version to the old one?

As a user you cannot influence the execution of the new WEB-Mail.

The new WEB-Mail certainly makes some technical changes in the background to adapt it.

If always possible as already mentioned several times, an external email program should be used such as: the Thunderbird which offers many more options and works on all leaf shapes.

Hello @Hafiethie82

The migration only works in one direction, migrated is migrated.

I am happy about the new Bluewin Webmail and think it is much better than the previous one. There are still a few little things to improve but that doesn’t make it unusable. Nobody can please everyone; there are always dissatisfied people who have difficulty coping with innovations.

The layout can be set almost as it was before using the settings.

You can choose a different layout for the email list:

Click on the gear menu at the top right and select the desired layout.

The multi-line email preview can also be switched off:

Gear Menu -> All Settings -> Mail -> Read -> Email List Item -> ** Show text preview** -> deactivate (uncheck)

A lot can be set in the menus, just try it out, you can’t really go wrong. Many functions can be accessed using the right mouse button and are self-explanatory. Help is also available in the web interface:

Question mark -> Help or Introduction tour.

My experiences with the new options have almost always been very positive. For example, a much-requested “Allow/block” function for email addresses or domains is now a reality.

Some things aren’t entirely obvious, but after a bit of searching and trying, you’ll find that too. There’s a bit of a problem in one or two places, but that will certainly be fixed. The interface responds very quickly, only switching between different mailboxes takes longer than before.

Just “play” with the many options and the training won’t be so bad. Or ask here again or use an email program like Thunderbird.

The old version is EOL and has a lot of quirks (the forum here is full of them) and 2 parallel systems (one of them ancient) are certainly not operated

Examples? Just wait and see, one or two things will definitely be sorted out.

The fact that it is “clearly deteriorated” is a matter of opinion - it is completely different and more modern and has many new, contemporary functions.

Humans are creatures of habit and often find it difficult to make changes to what they are used to. It’s easy to think things are “worse” and even ignore good innovations

For me it is not a solution if you have to recommend using an external email program just because the new interface was poorly implemented. Because then you could have left it with the old WEB-Mail, because you can use an external email program.

The old WEB-Mail was easier to work with and was clearer. The new functions to better deal with SPAM are really great, but overall in my opinion it has become worse and more confusing. And yes, I have adjusted all possible settings so that the interface matches the old one as much as possible.
