First of all let me apologise for this OT mail. I could not get an answer and thought of asking here and see whether someone else has faced a similar problem.
Since a week or so I am not able to delete the e-mails on yahoo server. I tried with galeon/mozilla/skipstone/phoenix and yes even IE/mozilla/kmeleon under windows. Every time I get the following result: Your login session has expired. Re-login. Why does my session expire? Login sessions expire for two reasons. 1. For your security, your Yahoo! Mail session expires a maximum of eight hours after you have logged in. If you have chosen in your Yahoo! User Information to be prompted for a password more frequently than every eight hours, your session will expire after the specified amount of time. 2. If you do not accept the cookies set on login or your computer is not configured to accept cookies, your session will expire almost immediately. We use cookies (small pieces of site information) to assist us in user authentication and in saving configuration information. Cookies are required for Yahoo! Mail. If you see this message immediately after logging in, you should check the following: * Check to see that your computer system time is accurate. Cookies are time sensitive and may not work if your computer date is incorrect by a large amount. * Make sure that your browser is configured to accept cookies or that you agree to accept cookies during the login process. * Turn off any third party programs or control panels that automatically reject cookies. I removed .galeon/.mozilla/whatever and tried again and again with the same result. My time is accurate as it the machine runs ntpdate at boot-up. I then sent an e-mail to yahoo helpdesk. I have not received even an acknowledgement from them so far. Has anyone else faced this sort of problem? I would like to clear my Inbox so that I do not run out of space.

Horrors. :-) -- Larry Wall in <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
