Yahoo's web-based mail is now optimized for Smartphone access. If you type in http://www.yahoo.com/r/m1 or http://wap.oa.yahoo.com on your phone's IE address bar, you will be re-directed to...

You can then use the 'Sign In' link or keypad shortcut 1 (Mail) to access the login page. It is now easier to compose and receive new messages.

Works on both pass through and direct GPRS connection. Try it yourself ;)

Hate to burst your bubble on Xmas Day, but this isn't new, Yahoo has had WAP access like this for years (I have been checking my Yahoo email since I had an Ericsson t29, back, back in the monochrome, three-line-display days).

In fact, I remember they used to have an even better version, where the sender's name was written below each email received (useful if you receive a lot of emails and only want to read the useful ones) and you could actually view attachments, but for some strange reason that one is no longer available.

...and Yahoo Mail POP access isn't locked to paying customers as Yahoo will have you believe. I'll leave you to fill in the blanks ;)

Skyfox, can you please give more info? I'd like to be able to check my Y!mail through Outlook using POP3 access, but haven't found a free way yet.

Thanks,

Loukas

Actually, I agree... I'm kinda confused cause it doesn't look any different then it did for the past year or two.... Am I missing something?

I have a problem with this - I was using this Yahoo Wap portal on my c500 loads, and it was great - however I can't access it on my sp5 - one of these web addresses just redirects me to the full size mail logon page, and the other displays this error message:

"The page you are looking for cannot be found due to unknown error 0x80088000"

Anybody got any bright ideas?
