Yahoo email problem with old and new accounts?

I have just created my second yahoo email account. However it is so strange:

When I use my old email account to communicate, sometime the reply button is locked and I am not able to send message. Then when I logout and login again, I am able to send message.

Then, when I logout and login again, I am not able to send message again.

So, I have to login and logout several times in order to make my old email account work for normal communication.

I am quite tired with that I really want to delete the new account and use the old account normally again.

1. What might be the cause of this strange thing?

2. How can I delete the new account and keep the old one?

Thanks!

    1: Empty your browser cache by deleting all cookies and temp files - a corrupt cookie may be the cause of your problems. You could also try to hit F5 on your keyboard to refresh a page - Yahoo is often working on their servers, and that in turn may cause glitches which can be overridden sometimes by hitting F5.

    2: Sign into the account you wish to delete, then check this site and follow the prompts:
