Q. If this add-on is used to check a few Yahoo webmail accounts, would it be logging in to each account according to my chosen time cycle parameters, but log out and leave me disconnected from the Yahoo network in between checks?
That's how I'd want it to behave... I mistrust Yahoo. The accounts are leftovers from the pre-Gmail era. In recent years - for various reasons unwilling to deactivate them altogether - I have checked for incoming Yahoo (only) mail within Firefox, via the add-on called "WebMail Notifier." But this morning I discovered something appalling when I manually navigated to the Yahoo Calendar login page: I was already logged in on one of my userIDs, This despite a number of browser measures to avoid or clear LSOs, Flash cookies, SuperCookies, or any kind of persistent cookie I have ever heard of. (I'm not a tech expert.) I do not want Yahoo hooked to me except when either (a) an automated process is checking for new mail; or (b) I am actually looking inside one of my accounts with my own eyeballs. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Thunderbird Webmail Extension" group.
