I really do not care about the new yahoo mail format. I like the classic version better.

I have not noticed a new format.  I think it may have rolled out a long time ago and some were on the beta and now everyone is forced to be a part of the new way.  I must have been on the beta plan.

I was helping a friend on his computer and he was talking about it being different and fussing at me telling me he wants it changed back. I told him "I can't change yahoo!"

I dpm't use yahoo on a regular basis so don't knowabout any new format.  Maybe that is good because then I won't be comparing it to the old one  ;)

Are y'all talking about emails?  Or the Yahoo home page?  I am not noticing anything different.  I must have been a part of the beta thing.  Unless something major changed since last night. haha

I don't  pay too much  attention to it.  But the way they do the  e-mails is quite different. After I got used to  it , it was ok. Hubby still has a little problem. But he just  calls me.

When yahoo mail changed after their hacking experience, I hated the change, stuff wouldn’t work, I couldn’t find what I needed in my mail, spontaneous deletion so I stopped using it for a while until later on when things cooled down for yahoo after they got hacked and yahoo made a new app for my iOS phone.  I hated and still hate that yahoo took away the direct app feature on iOS and choose to make a stand alone yahoo mail app for iOS. 

After all said and done, I was able to get the new yahoo mail app through an offer and glad I choose to get it, it’s not my most used mail anymore though but at least I can access my old email which does get new emails, just not as a high of a priority.

    I will not switch to the new Yahoo email system because
I like the old system and I am very familiar with it.

I'm not a big fan of Yahoo to start with.  If I knew then what I know now I would never have signed up with an account.

I've moved most of my more important mail to gmail and outlook.  I prefer both of those. 

As far as a new format is concerned with Yahoo, all I can say is, here we go again.     ::)

What is wrong with yahoo?
All of them update and change from time to time.
I have never had any issues with them.

like everything, we eventually get used to it.

With yahoo tho, it time stamps the emails which I like when Im wanting a screenshot a payment, where gmail doesnt, until the email is 24 hours old :(

I don't know that there is actually anything wrong with Yahoo, I simply stated  that I'm not a fan of Yahoo. If it works for you and you have no problems, that is great.  I don't have problems with them either but Yahoo is just not my preference.  I find that other mail formats are a better fit for me

Not sure why you are angry.  Why can't people just carry on a conversation?  I just wondered why you dislike yahoo.  Several have said oh I will NEVER use them again.  Once was enough for me.  I just am curious as to what the problem is. I  have never had any issues.  Never known of any breaches or anything like that with them either.  It was just a question.

You said If I knew then what I knew now I would never have signed up with them.  That tells me something had to have happened to make you not like them.  So I was just curious.  What is the problem with yahoo?  I have too much stuff with yahoo to change to something else.  And MSN isn't safe in my opinion.

I can assure you that I am not angry.  The bold lettering was merely to make a point more clear. I like other mail formats better.  It is not about having a problem with Yahoo, it is about having a preference elsewhere. 

I do believe that Yahoo did have a breach not too long ago.  To the best of my knowledge it is not a problem now.  I have never had any issues with any of the other mail formats that I use. 

You should not have to worry about any problems with Yahoo; don't worry about having to move somewhere else because there is no need to do that.  Yahoo is fine, it is a good fit for you.

I can tell you straight up I would not use hotmail or MSN.  I can tell you why.  Internet Explorer is full of holes.  It is very vulnerable to viruses and people getting in to your system.  I use to use them but do not any more.  I figure something happened to make you decide to no longer use yahoo.  I was just curious what that something was.  Not really asking for advice.

I was helping a guy straighten out his computer recently and he was asking about using IE or Yahoo or Firefox.  He was told IE was the best.  I told him it wasn't and why.  So he gets. mad.  He clearly has issues and needs to get someone else to help him.  He knows this now because like most who help him I refuse to do it again.  I know a lot of people do not like Yahoo.  And refuse to use it but no one can tell me WHY they do not like them.

Maybe I do not know what is a good fit for you.  I can respect that.  I'll try not to ever assume that again.  At the same time, assuming that I am upset or angry when I am not is not making any sense either.

lol well you sound angry.  This all started with me asking a simple question.  And you seem to be defensive.  I simply asked (because you said if I knew then what I know now I would never have signed up with yahoo) why you said that.  Obviously there was a reason.  No you don't have to state it and I really don't care. 

Just curious. Either way since you seem to be taking everything I saw wrong it is pointless to continue trying to have a discussion so have a good day!
