It seems that the Yahoo web lackeys have been at it again "improving" the AT&T 
webmail found at mail.yahoo.com .I can no longer open an email message which I 
used to do by getting the mouse to a sender's name and clicking on it.  This 
would bring up the message which I could read fairly easily, then delete, or 
move it, or forward, or reply to.  I could use the WE Find command to locate 
buttons including go to Next or Previous message -- but I can't get to this 
screen anymore.
Sometimes WE would go silent after I thought I had the sender's name.  Patience 
would in time bring back speech.  But no message.
I also experience that WE can't find a window to focus upon; I can get the 
title page, the menu items, then a door shuts and there is nothing to show for 
my labors.  I try CTRL Insert B to see where the focus lies but hear nothing.
Two other annoyances continue from before these apparent changes were made:
1. Check boxes won't change their status using the space bar.  I have to route 
the mouse to the element, then enter to check the box.  OK, this is doable.
2. The table which appears showing the most recent 50 messages  offers no 
noticeable way to bring the next 50 items up.
3. A hapless AT&T fellow (sporting a foreign accent)  asked what noise he was 
hearing in the background.  I repeated that, as a blind sod, it was my screen 
reader.
a) He asked me to log out, then log back in.  I reported that there was no such 
link to do so, whether log or sign in/off.
b) He gave me the phone number of the Aging & Disabled  "department" but 
calling it heard that the office was closed for the day sans info about when it 
was open.
Some year I'll have to learn Outlook along with its' gazillion settings and 
commands.  Not today.
