Use Yahoo! Mail on Firefox 3. When you do, making Yahoo! Mail your default mail application is this easy:

(download firefox from here--http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/)



1. Click Options.

2. In the pull-down menu that opens, select Set Y! Mail as default webmail.

3. Next time you click on a mailto link, you'll see a pop-up asking you which email client you'd like to use ( Yahoo! Mail), and if you'd like to make that selection permanent. Click Yes, and you're all done!



If you use Internet Explorer...



The tiny program that allows you to select Yahoo! Mail as the default email application for your PC is included as part of Yahoo! Toolbar version 7.2 and up for Internet Explorer (not Firefox).



If you don't have Yahoo! Toolbar v.7.2 or later for Internet Explorer installed, you’ll need to download it before proceeding with these instructions.
