    To switch from Beta back to original Yahoo! Mail:

    Either:

    At the top left of your screen, directly under your Welcome <username> sign next to the Yahoo! Mail logo, there are three small blue links: “Log out” “Your Account” “Switch Back”. Click “Switch Back”.

    -or-

    Log out or close the Beta Mail, reopen Beta Mail.

    IMMEDIATELY when you see the “bouncing ball guy” (or whatever he is doing this week!), click the RED X (STOP) at the top of your screen. This prevents the log on from going any further.

    Directly under the "bouncing guy" is a link that says “Trouble Logging In?”. Click it. The last option is :

    Switch back to original Yahoo! Mail by opting out of Yahoo! Mail Beta

    Select that to switch back to regular mail.

    This is a tricky solution, though. You have to be REAL QUICK on clicking that RED X or the log on process will continue to the error point and may not let you click the "Trouble" link. It took me three tries to get it, myself (but then, I'm old and slow -- lol!).

    Good luck!

    Yahoo is a comedian tale e mail. they have not got a clue what they're doing. Their protection is valueless. I worked there for about a minutes. they're consistently hacked. the organisation is swiss cheese. They pay **** so as that they get lazy incompetent human beings working there or human beings pass directly to paintings for a real organisation. My cutting-edge business business enterprise laughed when I informed him I worked at Yahoo. "The pretend organisation," he stated. That summed up Yahoo and Yahoo mail. they're a comedian tale contained available in the marketplace and have been dropping money for a while. fully valueless provider.
