Is it just me and my laptop, or has Yahoo gone south!? Everyday it's something else i.e. today I cannot 'reply'. Yesterday it would not 'delete' until I clicked on the Inbox, etc. I have the 'new' version which, in my opinion, has more problems than the version I had before, and I don't like it as well i.e. I have to double-click to open mail (my machine is set on single-click) sometimes--and sometimes I don't. And today my 'contact's list would not scroll! I could change to another mail system but would have to notify a thousand people/sites about an e-mail address change.
Am I the only one who has been having trouble? Thanks.

...yes. There seems to be numerous "bugs" in the interface. I often get no action upon "clicking" the log-in. And, often, can't log out using the standard log out procedure. I'm using the "new" interface, too...

....the above problems have been happening to me over the past ~~2 years. I've tried 4 separate web browsers; so this appears to be trans-browser.

Try using Mozilla Thunderbird mail client and have it check your Yahoo mail. No address change needed. Or gmail.com, or several other email types.

No, it's not just you. Yahoo has been having issues for the past couple of days. Sometimes I can't even access my Inbox.
But a separate Yahoo email I use for Club work is fine! Go figure.

A responder on another forum said he's had no problems since going back to the 'Classic' Yahoo Mail. Since posting, I've been editing my 'contacts'. Talk about an absolutely awful scroll bar! It took me 30 min. to do what I used to do in 5!

It's almost impossible to go back to Classic Mail. I have a paid yahoo mail account and I had to call in to make the switch back. There is no other way as far as I know. Unless they have bowed to demand and provided a link to click. I tried their new format 2 or 3 times. It's just not as good as Classic, to me.

A word of caution, export your contact list so you have a backup. Yahoo lost my wife's contact list and could not get it back.
