MaxyDawg couple of questions ...
When you go to Yahoo Mail on the Web .... What is shown next to the Yahoo! logo in the upper left of the screen? Does it say "Mail" or "Mail" with the word "Classic" underneath? When you go to the options of the Yahoo Webmail extension what account type do you have selected for your account in the "Mode" tab?
