yahoo mail and chrome

[kf10]

i use chrome to access yahoo mail. today when i selected spam folder to delete emails in it. it wouldnt let me select "choose all" option as seen in figure 1, meaning i was unable to check the "choose all" options. when i click on choose all option nothing happened

however i was able to check individual emails, as shown in figure 2

thanx in advance

another yahoo mail problem, when i selected the first email, the toolbar containing delete, spam etc option is grayed out in chrome

Your machine, is mostly probably infected.

Just a thought, use useful chrome extension like AdBlock.

Hi,
Yahoo should be dumped it has never been very secure and now verizon owns yahoo
Gmail is a lot better and the display shows no adds or animation at all
All you see is your inbox.... nothing else and can easily be customized with a desktop image just like you use on your desktop using custom theme features

I agree -- it's probably not the best choice for webmail (if there really is a "best" choice these days).

and now verizon owns yahoo

Not yet, technically.
Multiple reports in recent weeks that the deal is being re-negotiated, in light of the past security breach reports:

Verizon-Yahoo Acquisition Deal: Will Verizon Back Out Or Seek Discount Over Yahoo's Data Breach?

And there's a chance the entire deal could fall through.
But, yes, I would look elsewhere.

Gmail is a lot better and the display shows no adds or animation at all
All you see is your inbox.... nothing else and can easily be customized with a desktop image just like you use on your desktop using custom theme features

I tend to agree, even though Google (and gmail) have their own issues and concerns...
(I will not use Chrome, after seeing all the problems with it in malware removal fora & elsewhere.)


Cheers,

MM

Hi,
Thanks for the articles
One thankfully doesn't need to use Chrome to use gmail
Firefox/... is good too and firefox has a cool built in add-on too for the right column

Of course not.
I did not intend to suggest otherwise.

I mentioned Chrome only because the OP mentioned in it the subject of the original post (and as a way of saying that I have no personal experience with it).

Cheers,
MM

Hi,
Yep part of my experience with Chrome is not to install it
It uses way too many resources anyway.

From past and present Yahoo mail.


I was using yahoo in the past together with gmail and hotmail.

Then one day, yahoo mail declare that they are going to be paid yahoo email.

Hence, i deleted yahoo email account totally.

Recently, then i attempt to create yahoo email.

To my surprise, there is no mentioned of yahoo mail being paid email.

But again to my surprises, upon login, there are too many advert all over the website, but no mail which have to click to see your mails.

Email suppose to delivery mail first, and as like hotmail when exit it go to their website news online.

So now, it seem that yahoo is almost as not a email but adverts come first.


About OP on the spam.

To this, there is this setting to delete all spam by options; 1 week, etc.

Just wondering whether they are more concern of having spam in yahoo mails than protecting yahoo mail users.

Most probably yahoo cannot gain any interest for any takeover...
