What happened to my feeds?

You might notice over the next couple of days that in your folder list, on the left-hand column of the All-new Yahoo Mail, the item called “All feeds” has been removed. If you use the classic version of mail, or have no idea what that was for anyway ;-), then you can stop reading. However, some of you might be wondering where in the world your feeds have gone. If that’s the case, then read on…
We haven’t removed the feeds completely. We’ve just changed their location. All you have to do to find your feeds is check over at My Yahoo! (http://uk.my.yahoo.com) and you’ll find them all there (usually towards the bottom of your My Yahoo page).
Personally, I really like My Yahoo. In fact, I recently changed it to my home page. You can drag “modules” to different locations, so that the things that are important to you are right where you want them. I have moved my “Mail Preview” module and the BBC news feed to the top of my page, and now I get a great preview of my most recent messages and news. With the Mail module, I love that when you hover your mouse over one of your messages, you get a quick preview of the message.
If you haven’t taken a look at My Yahoo – http://uk.my.yahoo.com – recently, now’s a great time. If you use My Yahoo regularly, like my brother Dave, you know how good it is already.
Happy emailing,

Are the RSS feeds in Yahoo Mail going to go for good (i.e. Yahoo has given up on integrating RSS feeds in its Mail program) or is this a temporary measure while it is worked on?
Many thanks

Why am I now asked to sign in with my e-mail address and password every time I want to log on to my e-mails?
thank you Bob Bird

Absolutely Crap!
iGoogle is much better, and this is just a marketin ploy
to get more people using my yahoo

Hi Joe,
Thanks for your comment. I’m sorry that you feel that way, and of course you are welcome to your opinion. I can assure you that it’s not a marketing ploy to get people to use MyYahoo. No one from that team asked me to write this post. In fact, if the “My” team had asked me to, I probably would have said no. I was just trying to offer an alternative that I happen to find useful.
I guess I do do a little product marketing for Yahoo Mail using this blog, but that’s only because I think it’s a great product. If I ever mention another Yahoo product on this blog, it’s because I think it’s also a great product or it enhances Mail in some way. The main purpose for this blog is to keep you up-to-date on what’s happening with Yahoo! Mail and to give you tips on how to get the most out of it.
Hope that helps,

I like my feeds in my email. I too do not use My Yahoo. And now that my feeds are gone from my email, I’ll probably just revert back to using my Outlook as my email handler and dump Yahoo altogether.
I really hate good functionality being taken away from me. That’s not good business.
