Can anyone tell me WTF happened with Yahoo mail in the last week? Everything is different. Can't open more than one message at a time (which is a huge PITA when you're looking for work). There's the bizarre "conversation" thing that I totally didn't understand and turned off. The tabs on the left don't work the same. It's like a horrible 1990's version of, oh, what was that called, it began with an O or something... Oh, I don't know. But it was awful.

Is this change to Yahoo mail permanent? Ick?!

Yes, it's permanent and it sucks. I was talking to another SIer this morning about. I still trying to find how to permanently set the font size. I can do it in individual emails now, but I want to set it permanently so I don't have to keep setting it each time. Plus, my send button is now at the bottom.

I don't like the "conversation" thing either. I don't see it as an improvement, but rather really confusing.

When one door closes, another door opens. It's the journey through the hallway that sucks.

I agree, it is AWFUL.

I'm tired of Yahoo recommending I upgrade Firefox.

No, d*mnit, I DON'T want to personalize my Inbox with a "theme"!

I've never liked Gmail-stylin' when it came to the whole "conversation" concept.

They also changed their homepage I don't know how long ago...couple months? I've been trying to ignore it, because THAT bugs me, too.

Starting to think of bailing on them, and I've had Yahoo emails for a really, really long time.

I do not like the new Yahoo mail either. It's a royal pain in the ass. I can't do anything quickly anymore. I want my old Yahoo mail.

Okay, seriously....how the heck do you save a "draft" email on this lovely new system?!

Some how my mail is automatically saving as a draft almost immediately if I stop typing. I have to figure out how to get it to stop.
