I have been having problems with Yahoo mail since the last two Firefox updates - what can I do or is there a problem with Yahoo?
Often difficulty in logging in - yesterday for sometime I had the incoming mail list in front of me but was unable to read any of the individual e-mails, and this evening I got logged in ok, but have been unable to compose or reply to anything.

One thing that occurs from time to time is Yahoo moving you to a new server. If you use an old bookmark to access your mail, or saved Yahoo mail as your home page, the redirect may not work correctly. Try getting to your mailbox using either the Yahoo home page, your My Yahoo page, or if it's AT&T email, the AT&T Yahoo home page.
