Subject: AT&T's webmail page redone?
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.
