This is a decent extension, but it lacks basic functionality: being at least able to view the titles of the incoming messages seems a must to me (see similar extensions for gmail).

Excellent, I only wish it were possible for it to instead forward directly to my inbox.

I started using Yahoo! Mail Notifier 1.0.0.3 with Firefox 2.0.0.11 (Firefox didn't upgraded since i started using Yahoo! Mail Notifier 1.0.0.3), but now Yahoo! Mail Notifier 1.0.0.3 isn't working anymore. It doesn't login anymore, i type the user name and password and i get a message saying: "user name" - Yahoo Mail Notifier failed to login to Yahoo! 3 times in a row. Please check your connection and try to login again. Thing is that my connection is fine, i also use G mail Notifier 0.6.2.2 and it has no problems so far. Does anyone has this issue i explained above? Is there any fix to it? If you know how to fix it then say it here. PS: i tried reinstalling it, this didn't helped :(

Versions 1.0.0.2 and 1.0.0.3 are not notifying of new messages in FF 2.0.0.11. Had to dig out an older version (1.0.0.1) to get it to notify again. Using Windows ME and 2K. Happening in both. Using FF 2.0.0.9 in Suse Linux, version 1.0.0.3 works fine. Otherwise one if the most useful extensions for Firefox, IMHO.

Wow, this works great!
Would be good for a windows live mail / msn one?

For anyone who think it is out of order, it's good.
I think you need to adjust the setting of your yahoo mail a little bit.
In your mail, open option then find POP Access & Forwarding then just click Web & POP Access [POP Settings].
good Luck

This was a grand tool, and now it is no longer working; I do not know if some upgrade to FF or an add on interferes, but I have changed nothing. I hope a fix may be found. Fine tool when it works!

Quick install; very simple to use; basic options for customization - no frills, but what more do you need? Didn't want to put Y! Messenger on my system just to know when I had new mail ... this plug-in did the trick! Thanks!

If the Yahoo Mail Notifier allowed 3-5 accounts with the same great functionality - I would give it a 10+.
Allow different sounds for each mail account etc.
We can only hope !

The only reason that I had Yahoo! Messenger was that it notified me of incoming mail. Because of this, I uninstalled this. Bottom line: This is a very useful add-on.

Light, easy to use. You can set it to automatically log in and check for new mail on start up. Click on it to open mail in new tab. Have a handy sliding alert when new mail arrives with sound, if you wish. Almost like having a desktop app. Great extension.
