Yahoo mail getting ornery

Topic

[Tom in Az]

Not only can we not go back to basic Yahoo Mail, now it is snarking about adblockers. I have been able to dodge this so far by using LibreWolf. Only happens when opening individual messages.

Any one have solutions/suggestions?

TIA

I got tired of Yahoo changing things. Now I use Thunderbird to connect to my Yahoo account, using IMAP (making sure to use the option to leave mail on the Yahoo server).

No more nagging, ads, and I’m used to the Thunderbird interface. You can try Bluemail to do the same thing.

There is no option in IMAP to leave the mail anywhere, it automatically saves a local copy and syncs it with the server.

I have found that ClawsMail works on Linux Mint, but is kinda bare-bones and a bit geeky to set up. But I think I can live with it. May try the free version of BlueMail for grins later.

Thanx,
