Thank you so much for this software Ravi.  I've been using it for ages and
it's been rock-solid.  And when it wasn't you (and others on the list) were
right on top of the work around.  I've been logging into yahoo mail
directly to check my mail recently and it is horrible, you've saved me much
pain over the years.

Again, thank you very much for fetchyahoo. :)
