  4. bookmark bar is blocking function keys at top of screen

    View of Function tabs at top of email when forwarding or creating new email are blooked or partially hidden by Yahoo bookmarks bar. IF I CAN"T SEE THE TABS LIKE FORWARD OR SEND -- how do you expent me to be able of use them. PLEASE RETURN TO PLAIN SIMPLE Home page with big clear function tabs at top of screen, REPLY, REPLY -ALL, FORWARD, DELETE. If Yahoo wants to keep customer keep the home page simple, plain. I want to return to the old home page. This new one is a disaster - too much work - time intensive…
