Still it is way better than the 6 MB they’ve limited me to the last 3 or 4 years or so. This is good nes indeed. I love competition.

Aren’t market forces grand? I can now procrastinate a bit longer about cleaning out my four or so Yahoo email accounts. Thanks Google!

I GOT 100MB! TWICE!

I maintain 2 Yahoo mail accounts. The first one opened in 1997, and second circa 2001.
And THEY BOTH GOT UPGRADED! THANK YOU YAHOO MAIL!!!

Psst.. Are you going to upgrade your Briefcase function as well? hahah greedy

Yup, I got 100 mb, and the interface is very pretty, with the new search button.

Since Yahoo upgraded and also changed their format, I have NOT been able to delete one message in my inbox! I also cannot send a message, reply to a message, or move a message from one box to another! I CAN empty my bulk mail. Is anyone else having this problem? Any ideas how to fix it? All my other email accounts are still working fine and I haven’t made any changes in my internet options or settings.

I’m likewise not able to get into my main Yahoo Mail account, so the 100 Mb sounds nice, but this is already teaching me not to put too much faith in a free service, particularly one with such a poor record of resolving problems. I wouldn’t want 100 Mb of messages I need access to completely inaccessible to me.

Apparently, there is something about my main Yahoo account that doesn’t like the upgrade. I can access Yahoo Mail with a backup account. I then log off that account, log into my main account and all I get is a blank screen. I can go to Yahoo Groups and edit my main account, but I cannot get into email. The fact that I can get into and out of a Yahoo Mail account without a problem, but have trouble with a different account, indicates that the trouble is out of my control.

It’s great that Yahoo are offering the upgrade, however,so far it’s been pretty useless as I have not been able to access my email for 4 days now! It wouldn’t be quite so frustrating if Yahoo put up a message explaining that there were major problems with access and that they are working on a fix - instead there’s absolutely nothing about it on the site from them, which just makes people more angry. I know the upgrade seems to have caused big problems for many people, and I can accept that, it is free after all and has always been pretty good before, but surely it’s good business practice to keep people informed, it would also save them from being inundated with fault reporting forms, oh I forgot, it doesn’t matter how many fault forms they get, they don’t answer them anyway do they?

responding with juliana’s comment. i did make a report when i first learned of the problem. they did respond about 48 hours later with a computerized email, stating that they are aware of the problem due to the upgrading. they didn’t say anything else.

I am facing the same problem as P.D. is facing. And despite two emails to Yahoo customer service, they have not responded to a single one. It’s extremely annoying and frustrating. It has been days since the problem came up and they have not fixed it yet.

I was wondering why my yahoo account is still stuck at 4 mb when everybody else seems to be enjoying 100 mb?

Since Yahoo Mail made the upgrade a couple of days ago, I have not been able to get into my Yahoo Mail account via cable connection. Interestingly, I can get in via modem and a dial-up connection. I tried clearing cache and cookies, and concluded that there are some bugs in the upgraded free e-mail service that Yahoo is trying to work out.

I can see how many messages there are in my mailbox, but cannot access it. When I tried to load it, I get the cannot be displayed error. I’m glad to see it wasn’t just me cause I was flipping out.

Kafka would have loved this one. Reading your responses have made me feel alittle less frustrated by all of this. I have cable hookup, and haven’t been able to get onto my Yahoo mail site for four days. I get no response when I hit my mail icon or I get a ‘this page cannot be displayed’. I agree with those that have said that Yahoo should at least let it’s customers know the scoop about this troublesome upgrade. This may work to wean me off the internet. It’s about time I read “The Castle”.

A thought — I was also having a lot of trouble with my Yahoo account, which I had bookmarked, but when I typed it in new — mail.yahoo.com, things worked, so just a thought that might help.

Thank you to the person who posted that email can be accessed by dial-up - I always keep a free dial-up account on my computer as back-up and indeed I could access my email that has been unavailable through cable modem for a couple of days. I hope they fix this soon!

I have the same problem with yahoo mail. I can access it fine from my work computer, but when I try at home I get the DNS error/page cannot be found. One thing that did work was I deleted my internet cache, deleted all cookies and my internet history and rebooted. I was able to access my mail, read and delete messages, but could not send any messages. But, I could not log back in again, I had to clear the cache, cookies and reboot again and I was able to log back in.

After the 7th day of no email access, for a few minutes I managed to get into my inbox. Couldn’t read any messages, but at least I could see the names of the people who’d sent me messages and could contact them using an alternative email address to tell them not to send stuff to my Yahoo address.
Sadly, it was a brief encounter and it’s now returned to it’s former state, where all I get is a page full of symbols yet again.
Hopefully, the fact that I got a glimpse of my inbox means that they are starting to make progress on a fix. But I won’t be counting on it!

I don’t think it’s a case of blaming anyone, I think people have just become infuriated that there is nothing official from Yahoo on their site explaining the problems. If they had put up a page explaining what’s going on and keeping people informed, it would help a whole lot. Not much to ask I don’t think, instead, we have all had to find out for ourselves and have by luck stumbled upon this fine website to find the answer, pretty poor Customer Care wouldn’t you say?
They also sent me replies regarding the fault to the email address that I can’t access, despite asking them to send it to a different address, so that just adds to the frustration.
I read that they were also reinstating dormant accounts that hadn’t been used in years and are applying the upgrade to those at the same time as active accounts, which seems completely crazy to me. Surely it would have been better to upgrade the accounts of existing customers first, then worry about long since unused accounts, that may or may not be used ever again.

Is it possible to mark all messages in a yahoo account & “transfer” them to another yahoo account?

I wish I’d found this site last week…I’ve spent hours trying to find out what was wrong with my computer…bought 2 virus/spyware programs, run dozens of free scans, deleted other programs, and in general spent many hours sitting frustrated in front of my computer trying to fix something that yahoo has to fix! At least now I have a squeaky-clean computer (with not quite as many programs, as I got rid of all that I thought MIGHT be causing the problem)..I agree with others…Some notice from yahoo would have been nice and saved me many hours of trying to fix the unfixable! Once in the past week I’ve been able to look at in my inbox, and did see that yahoo had sent an email about a bug, but then I couldn’t open it to read it before the send error report came up and it was gone. The one time I got to see it, I had 95 unread messages (I usually average 5 a day!)

I’d Like to say that the offer of Gmail is too atractive, but, the only idea of ads in my mail, put in my mind a lot of things to think, because i hate the merchadising ads in my mail, and always, in all my accounts of free e-mail, i have to erase all the porn messages that i don’t have required, so if google is too sure about all his algorythms and all his team of programmers, the main test will be that they don’t allowd to pass this messages, because in other way, they will have to assume all the responsability of the unsolicited mails, and all the service crash surely because of this.

Thanks.. Remy©

I can’t delete or send email either.. They must have outsourced the work to do the upgrade…and now have the american staff working all hours to try to fix everything…

I have a customer who gets the error “Yahoo may not be optimized for the web browser you are using” after the switch. The suggestion from Yahoo was to change to the old version of Yahoo that they tried to do but cannot. Any ideas on this?

At this rate, the entire 100m will be swamped with spam before I can delete anything

I had the problem with deleting mail from the yahoo account after the 100M upgrade. Cannot use the checkbox and then click delete — it just sits there when you click delete. This is using IE 6. Used Mozilla Firefox and it worked fine. So I guess it’s a setting in IE that I haven’t figured out yet. Tried allowing all cookies from yahoo, enable scripting, enable pop-ups (using google toolbar), but haven’t figured it out yet.

Yes I do like the GUI improvements plus the big additional space. But when you are opening a big mail and suddenly you feel like deleting the mail halfway, Yahoo! won’t response. This is very annoying especially when you are on dial-up. Do you guys experience the same?

Glad I found this page-I thought there was a problem with my computer but since the upgrade I can read e-mail but I can not compose/respond or delete the mail—very frustrating but I am glad to hear that others are having the same problem–this has been for about 2 weeks now however and yahoo really needs to check into and fix the problem ASAP.

Same problems here with sending or deleting emails from Yahoo. Whats up Doc?

I have 2 comps. One is Win 98 and one is Win 95. I’m not sure if this has been since the upgrade or even before, but ONLY on my Win 98 comp, for a period of at least 3 days or more, I can’t delete or even move any mail messages. I can only empty Bulk and Trash by clicking the ‘empty’ buttons. Sometimes I can delete a mail message by clicking on ‘Spam’ (when it’s not spam). THEN…I’ll log off of my Win 98, logon to my other Win 95 comp and it works PERFECTLY! I can move, delete,etc! So if it’s problems on your end, why does it always work on my Win 95 comp, yet this unique problem only exists when I use my Win 98 comp? (I have excellent Antivirus protection). Help! Thanks.

Well, add another that can’t delete or send since the upgrade. At least I know it’s not my computer. I have windows 98 SE and use a cable modem. I tried their response but nothing works- at least the computer from work does fine.

My mail box is not upgraded to 100MB kindly do help in that my mail id’s are anithaa_mk@yahoo.com,shyamas123@yahoo.com

I also cant delete, reply, etc. None of the buttons work. I constantly delete after I read something unless it is important, it is killing me to have to filter through all the spam and already read mail to find something I want to go back to. I usually have no more than 10 emails in my inbox and now its growing daily and up to over 100. The only things I can delete are things in my bulk mail, good thing they arent coming directly to my inbox. I too can go online from my parents house and it works fine though? I really thought it was just my computer with a virus until I found this site. Thanks for making me a little calmer…I just want to delete though!!!

in regards to Yahoo, try downloading and using Netscape to access your yahoo account. It worked for me.

Thank you so much Tim. The Netscape download solved all of my problems (for now!). There’s going to be a mad rush to the Netscape website now that the news is out. Get there fast!

I cannot delete my mail in the in box or in the sent box. It keeps growing and growing. Here it is the end of June and it doesn’t work. I’m expecting an important note from someone too. I’d gladly pay if it meant it’d work. But after this experience I don’t know….

Hey,

man this is annoying, i think they should go back to the way the email was before the upgrade as it was less trouble lol..

but ever since yahoo upgraded (dont know if it is cause by it or what) but i cant log into my hotmail account ither.. or my amazon.com account.

i dont know if this will help you guys out or not but i found one way that allows me to check my emails.

run a regestry cleaner / spy bot and pest patrol to remove all crap from your computer then log in (with out restart) to the net and try loggin into your email accounts, i found that after doing this i can log into the email accounts and stuff no worries..

as i said above since yahoo upgraded i havent been able to log into yahoo mail, hotmail, or my amaozn.com account, yest after doing the above i can.. strange but see if it works.

I’m having the same problem as most everyone else. I can read my email but cannot send, reply, or delete. I’m glad to hear I’m not the only one with this problem. Hope we can all find some solutions soon.

I noticed the same problems mentioned above when I access my Yahoo from the Office computer/network. However, I can do everything just fine from home. At home I have dial-up and Windows ME. At work I have XP and high-speed.
Still no fixes yet…

With Win XP and IE6 i can read mail and delete it from the delete button if the email is open, but not from the inbox and I still can’t send. Maybe they are making progress?

PS Netscape still works.

i am very old user or yahoo so now my mail capacity is not increase now my mail capacity is 6mb n i want to increas new 100mb free capcity so please do it for me thx a lot
kamal

Hi, — I am one of the people who cannot login to my Yahoo email since the upgrade. When I click on the mail icon all I get is a page that says:

“The page cannot be displayed.
The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. The Web site might be experiencing technical difficulties, or you may need to adjust your browser settings”

plus a page full of other technical info that is meaningless. This is a major pain in the ass and expensive also as I have had to phone many of my contacts. I know it’s free but c’mon guys get it fixed will ya — go out for a beer later!

Hello,

just letting you know i no longer (seems like it) have problems with checking my emails..

if you are useing FROGGY as your ISP then ring them and ask them what changes were made.. (they changed phone number or something) and i had to make changes to my computer..

hi all, i’ve a problem in sending mail thr’ the yahoo mail. The send, save as draft …. button doesn’t get activated when clicked (i.e) the whole frame doesnt get activated. I am at loss. Thank you for your reply
sriganesh

To all those frustated Yahoo users who are still at 4 or 6MB with their mail box, here is the way to get 100 MB.

Login to ur Yahoo! Account, click on “Mail options” then click on “Account Information” then click on “Edit” of “Member Information” then here in “General Preferences” click on the link “Language & Content” & choose “Language & Content - English - United States”, click “I Accept” if u get a “Terms of Service (TOS)” page, save this setting, log out of yahoo, login again….welcome to 100MB yahoo mailbox.

Now after all this i need a BIG help from someone. When i had 100 MB mailbox, i changed the “Language & Content” link to “Language & Content - English - India”, now my mail box is again 4MB, the tragedy is….i can’t change back to “Language & Content - English - United States” cuz i don’t see the link at all in my “Member Information” now. I mailed Yahoo! 3 times on this but didn’t get a reply. PLZ PLZ PLZ PLZ PLZ PLZ SOMEBODY HELP ME ABOUT HOW TO GET BACK TO 100 MB SOMEWAY. PLZ SOMEONE HELP ME IF THERE IS ANY OTHER WAY I CAN GET BACK TO 100 MB, I NEED IT DESPERATELY, MY 4 MB MAILBOX IS ALREADY FULL……PLZ HELP ME SOON……..

What is the use of upgrading to 100mb if all of you are experiencing problems with your emails?

For your information,I am still having only 4mb but I am not having any problems.I wonder why not all Yahoo free email users are given the same amount of storage. Some have several accounts and are all upgraded whereas I have only one but not upgraded.Can Yahoo help?

I have a customer’s computer that is having this problem. I created a new account, overlaid xp and ran all updates. it still would not work on this machine. The problem looks like a internet explorer plugin for yahoo mail or active x plugin that is corrupt. It is totally an internet explorer issue.

Found a quick fix from another site..

Please try this mobile Yahoo site…
mobile.yahoo.com/mail

It works fine for me - but the graphic still not good enough.. (At least we are a loyal fan of Yahoo Mail and IE.)

Well, it is now almost 3 weeks since I have had trouble with Yahoo. I have been with them almost from the beginning and was grandfathered in at free 6.0MB of email space. I got upgrated to 100.0MB automatically and have had problems ever since 6/20/19/04. I think I am receiving my mail okay but don’t know for sure. I can access, read and print off my mail but I can’t reply, or forward either to an individual or by using the mutltiple addressee function. Once in awhile I can send but mostly not. I have written to Yahoo almost daily and all I ever get is a auto response that they are checking into the problem and if I continue to have the problem to contact them again (hence the mutltiple letters sent). I am not real computer literate so all the stuff I have been reading about changing from IE to NS and checking cookies et al just leaves me frozen not knowing what to do. Does anyone out there have any idea if Yahoo is making progress on this mess? Yahoo is a great program that is user friendly but I am getting terribly frustrated because I have a lot of genealogy stuff out at different sites and can’t readily change my email addy. Eight years worth of work.
Comments anyone. I would leave an email addy but don’t know if that is allowed here.
Diane (old and getting older by the minute)

Can any one tell me , the 100MB upgradation is automatically done by Yahoo, or the user can do some formalities to go upgrade!

Hello everyone - I also have the same problem. I sent the following message to Yahoo Customer Service… I’ll post any reply they send (!).

Hi - this just started happening - I receive Mail ok, but cannot Compose, Reply or Delete mail. The buttons don’t work. I don’t seem to alone with this issue - I found others with the same problem on a blog here:

http://dan.hersam.com/archives/2004/05/14/yahoo-mail-boosts-to-100mb

We need you help! Thanks!

Wouldn’t it be nice if somebody from YAHOO would sign on here and tell us what thw problems are and when they will fix them?

When they try to debit my account next month for the upcoming year, I plan to protest with my credit card company abouyt the charge.

It seems like I now have functionality back with my various Yahoo accounts. No problems sending, deleting, etc. Was having problems for about 2-3 weeks.

Yahoo has not responded back besides the initial one saying they know they have a problem.

Seems like others still have problems. Is it possible that whatever happened at Yahoo is quite embarrassing, therefore they are not saying anything about this and that the fix requires something on the order of going into indivudal accounts to clean up, hence the delay and hit and miss results on people getting problems resolved?

Can someone post a phone # for yahoo I found address at 701 First Ave. Sunnyvale, Ca. 94089, mailed them letter about e-mail not working, where can I send e-mail? I’m senior and new at puter. July 14,2004

YAHOO DSL/SBC help line 877 722 3755

I was unable to get on yahoo, for a while, but did have email access. Then able to get on yahoo and internet but unable to get on my email. Then able to get into email, but was only getting about a tenth of my emails. One day all my email was deleted without my help.. Since the 16th of June I have been unable to compose or send email. I cannot delete unless I open the email. At first for a week I was unable to delete at all. Yahoo is without any ethics because they have not been cooperative or forthcoming about this issue and allowed customers to struggle in the dark to resolve this issue. They should have notified everyone at once.

I was told first by Yahoo technician that there was a problem with my computer and to call my manufacturer around June 16. My Manufacturer, Gateway, told me I had two viruses. They had me zero out my computer and reload everything, With Windows ME, it was described to me by Gateway technician as an arduous process. That was an understatement. I changed my firewall from Norton to McAfee. I bought two spyware programs. Two weeks later Yahoo admitted my problems were their problem and not my software but their software. All that time spent with technicians from Yahoo, from Gateway, and from Norton who did not have a clue what was wrong.

The only honest one in the bunch was McAfee - after I bought their firewall and when I was still having problems with something in their firewall they admitted that sometimes that happens and they do not know why. Gateway, Yahoo, and Norton just blame each other and send you back and forth endlessly.

Yahoo now admits they have no idea how long it will take to fix the problem.

Regarding the cannot delete/move posts in Yahoo!Mail.

As you may know it’s a big problem everywhere for which currently Yahoo have no visble public admission of a problem

After several attempts to contact Yahoo via their help forms (which didn’t work because until I changed my IE6 hosts file and ad blocker - the help pages have “add” in their URL!) and at least 2 posts to Yahoo!Mail. I finally got replies.

They told me that they are aware of the problem - that was over 1 month ago!

Yippy!!!! Yahoo is once more running well. After weeks of frustrations, I wrote an email to a computer newspaper columnist. He wrote me back that the culprit for me was more than likely Internet Explorer as their Hotmail is a major Yahoo competitor. It seems they have done this before and that some of us using the later and most recent XP versions results in the common problems of forwarding, sending, replying etc. I changed my browser from Internet Explorer to Netscape and Yahoo is running just like it use to. Hope this helps someone else out there.
Diane

Has anyone noticed a change in the default font color setting since Yahoo! Mail made their big change on June 15th? I have Mail Plus, and have noticed subtle changes. I can only send and receive mail in black font,(but when I’m composing email - the font color is blue) I have to constantly use the Yahoo Mail toolbar to change font color to dark blue (this was the default color). The folks at Yahoo keep passing it off as a browser issue…not so…it’s a Yahoo issue. Totally frustrated

OH THANK YOU, BOB -for your post on July 21. After WEEKS of frustration with being unable to leave the “compose” page of yahoo email w/o my IE 6 closing, your hint about internet options and temp file folders FINALLY solved my problem.

THANK YOU THANK YOU
TRY IT, folks! It did the trick for me!

I have the same problem as you - i just get a load of garbage numbers and letters after the sign in. The WORST thing is, i can access the more recent account in yahoo that i never use. When i try to open it in netscape, it says something about it “cannot open the octet/stream… blah blah blah…” So i think maybe it’s a problem with the older accounts???

Is anyone finding the same?

Oh..done these but no help…why Yahoo ?

Try removing any/all yahoo java objects from the browser under tools/internet options/settings/view files (delete them all)

Then go to tools/internet options/settings/view objects/remove them all

Then go to tools/internet options/advanced/check [Enable install on demand (Internet Explorer)] and also select [Enable install on demand (Other)]. This will hopefully reload any yahoo plugin that was missing or corrupted. The file may be missing or corrupt if you recently ran a Spyware removal tool like Adaware or Spybot S&D.

Great page, atleast I don’t think I’m crazy anymore. I’ve tried everything, even tech support and still no help.

My problem is when after I enter my password and press enter, all the browsers seem to download a page in application/octet-stream. It a white page full of characters only and nothing else.

I’ve tried these broswers-IE6, Opera, Netscape and firefox.

I was able to open my mailbox via- mobile.yahoo.com/mail. Thanks for the tip.

It works at my friends house (she’s on dial-up),
interesting. But can’t get it to work on 4 other PC’s all on cable!!!. All other yahoo emails work fine.

Anyways I’ve concluded that yahoo has been a fantastic service for me (7 years or so) never had a problem and that’s why I didn’t believe they might just have a problem.

All the best peole and if anyone does find something, please post.

i still have 6mb storage, i don’t know how to increase it to 100mb , which i desparetly need it
please if u can guide me or increase it to 100mb by default, which i think sould have been done automatically. any way please do it!

This is Oct 15, 2004 and I am getting Error 999 for Yahoo mail
access for past 3 days with an apology message. Don’t know
when it will be fixed.

We had a bit of trouble opening our mail PLEASE help us open our mail just explain what you have to do to open the mailbox

there seems to be a lot of ppol having problems with yahoo error 999 but no one has given any solution!!! i have a project to do and all of the stuff is in my mail!!! someone help please!!!!

I can sign into yahoo mail but I can’t use the buttons in it. Such as Compose, Check mail and any other buttons. I can use the linked words and everything else though. I can’t figure out what’s wrong; if it’s me or something else.

Yahoo appears to have unfairly targeted some people and is sabotaging their attempts to use Yahoo! services. I am led to believe it is because people who are old, or young inexperienced kids make mistake’s when logging in, and over a short period of time, have to re-log in several times. Yahoo! sees these people as dishonest crooks trying to break into /misuse other peoples passwords,and this is the punishment.Yahoo! then targets these unfortunates,and they can no longer access their legitimate mail. A dyslectic kid has been learning on my computer,and after a week of making lot’s of mistake’s (thro no fault of his own) I’ve now been inflicted (read BANNED) form getting my mail. Yahoo! has totally ignored all my requests for help.Old people and dyslectic kid’s are no longer welcome at yahoo!……you make too many mistakes, so piss off and dont come back.

I hve been with yahoo for years without any trouble, but for the past 2 days I can’t respond or forward or compose any mail. Only read it, and I am only using 1% of my storage capability. Any clues as to why?

hi
please find password of e_torkekhar@yahoo.com and send it’s password to my mail mhf112@yahoo.com
please do it fast, because he is attacking me.
thansk befor.

I would be grateful if someone can help me how do i rename the Nicknames appearing in the Yahoo Messenger Archieve Box as the nicknames and their actual names are different.I like their actual names to appear in the Archieve BOX to be the same as appearing in the Mesenger LIST.
2)Email:- Why is it i m unable to send reply emails everytime i click SEND-I get a message Error in Page–how do i rectify this.
Thank you so much!
Steven

Please help me. I cannot compose, forward and send messages in my yahoo email. Whenever I try to load the page, the text box would be missing and I get an error on page.

For a couple of days now I cannot send emails, or delete them. But I can delete bulk mail if I click in a certain area. For all the people who has had this happen to them a long time ago, does it work for you now, and how long did it take for it to work again?

I’m experiencing the same problem and have for days. Yahoo is of no help. Please, if anyone knows how to fix this, share the information. I does seem as though I am not alone!

Same here, starting yesterday, I have been unable to respond, forward or compose messages (get “error on page”). Used yahoo mail for 19 months with no problems til now. Haven’t got a clue, loaded XP SP12 but didn’t help. Anyone have any ideas????

Misery loves company? -
I can not send/reply in my yahoo mail- at home…
But am able to at work.
Home is coming up : error on page
Details showing: AC_selected email is undefined
I have searched other tech support sites- and have attempted their fixes-
with no luck.
Would sure like to hear from Yahoo on this… do they have
any site or support area that explains temporary problems (hoping this is
temporary).. Or fixes?
Or is Yahoo above trying to help the people that use their services?

OK Folks,

I’ve had the same e-mail problems and have fixed it. It’s not so much Yahoo as it is Internet Explorer. I downloaded Netscape from netscape.com and I now have no further problems. Good Luck!

Jim

THE 999 YAHOO ERROR CAN FIX IT BY CHANGING YOUR UPPERCASE ID TO LOWERCASE AND THE OTHER WAY IS LOG IN IN SECURE MODE YOU WILL NEVER GOT THIS PROBLEM AGAIN

BEST REGARDS

every time i used to get “error on page” message when i try to open my yahoo mail inbox

I’ve been having this error 999 for several days now. I see alot of people with the same problem at this site. Does anyone have a fix yet?

The #180 post didn’t help at all.

just wanted to thank s toad for the advice that the problem may be flash player.

i, too, was getting the ‘AC_selectEmails’ is undefined error and was unable to send any e-mails…uninstall macromedia flash player and VOILA! i can send e-mails now. the only downside is that every website that has flash embedded in it now gives me errors saying that i may not see the whole page because i don’t have flash, but if it means sending e-mails, i don’t care.

if anyone comes up with a solution that does not involve removing flash, please post. in the meantime, i am just happy to be able to send e-mails again.

Is there a solution to the “999 Error” when trying to retrieve e-mails

my hotmail message does’t open . there’s storage is full. i want to
increase my hotmail message
