Re: NTLK Web based email on the Newt

I have been unable to access my Yahoo email account with NewtsCape. I enter my
account name and password and am either returned to the same page or get a
page that is blank except for the word Yahoo in small type at the top center.
That the only reason I opened a Yahoo account was because I am specifically
interested in getting my email on my Newton when I'm away from home. Any
suggestions on what I might be doing wrong will be much appreciated.
