Up until Yahoo forced the change to the New Mail, I was happily using the 
Classic version. Now that they have forced the change, I can't be the only one 
left behind. (Select all buttons are missing, Next buttons send you back to the 
list view every time you delete a correspondence, and untold numbers of other 
irritations.) What suggestions do any of you more savvy techs have as an

Once again - use the mobile version. It works fine on a desktop. The url is:


http://us.m.yahoo.com/p/mail

Cut and paste that into your browser. You don't have to give up your yahoo 
email address.

What browser (and vers) are you using?

I was just puttering around in Yahoo's webmail this morning (my 
'throwaway' email address), and had no big problems.  Safari 5.0.6 w/ 
Leopard-WebKit.  Overall it was crapyahootastic slow and typically 
cumbersome, but then their webmail interface has never been very good.


The select all function is there.  At the top/above of the select 
checkboxes, there's an unlabeled checkbox with a wee triangle next to 
it.  Click that box to select everything.  Use the drop-down menu 
from the triangle to do other things.


The real alternate solution -- get off Yahoo Mail.  Switch to Gmail. 
It's completely free, has a better web interface, and supports both 
POP3 and IMAP.
