Re: [fetchyahoo-announce] [fetchyahoo-general] fetchyahoo broken?

[Satish B. <ba...@fa...>]

I've noticed breakage a few weeks back. I was able to get it working
by switching the mail account to classic mode.

[google search helped here. Basically switch off 'javascript' on the
browser and then try logging in to yahoo mail. Then we get a prompt to
switch it to classic mode]

Since then - I received a 'service reminder' from yahoo

Starting the first week of June, you will be prompted to switch to the new Yahoo! Mail
<<<<

So perhaps 'classic mode' will be deprecated..
