623018 2007-12-20 00:30:00 My experience is the same as Wainuitech. I ignored the choice of installing Yahoo software and can still access my webmail. I don't have any other Yahoo software on my computer. The installation made it sound like you needed the software but you definitely don't. user (1404)
623019 2007-12-20 00:34:00 The whole point of webmail is so you can access your emails with nothing more then a standard internet browser. YahooXtra haven't changed this they simply imply that their software. It isn't. stormdragon (6013)
623020 2007-12-20 00:37:00 I'm also wondering whether it's different for people - like wainuitech - who already have Yahoo in some form on their comp?

I don't. No Yahoo Software at all, I have god knows how many Yahoo accounts when we used to use Yahoo Chat ( wont go there - thats a story on its own :o ) - don't even have Messenger any more. You can create a yahoo account with out the need to download all the extra rubbish.

The only thing you need to do is accept Yahoo's terms.

Once you have accessed webmail you can import your address book into webmail. That is supposed to help avoid having your contact's mail dumped in the Spam folder just because their ISP's mail server has a reputation for Spam.

While you are in webmail it is worthwhile checking just what has ended up in your bulk (spam) mail folder.
