If you didn’t like the newest version of Yahoo Mail, you can always switch back to the old classic version. But the sad part is, you will not find any option to go back to the older version of Yahoo Mail.
Does that mean you are stuck? Well, there is always an option.
All the new websites are stopping the support for older browsers, and this new version of Yahoo is no exception. It is not made for old version of Internet Explorer, the IE6.
If you can run IE6 on your machine, you can very well get the older version. But it sounds little tough to do all the things just for getting back to the older version of Yahoo.
Here is a small tip you can follow to get back to the older version on Yahoo Mail by using latest version Firefox browser.
Just install a small plugin called User Agent Switcher, what does it do?
Well, every browser sends some information to the website so that the user can get a personalized experience. The work of User Agent Switcher is that you can make the websites recognize your browser as whatever version you choose from the options.
Just install it and select IE6
Open Yahoo Mail and you get the message that your browser is not supported and prompts you to upgrade your browser to newer versions of Firefox, Internet Explorer or Safari. But this is not what I want because I am already on Firefox 5.
Use the link to go back to the older version and you get back to the old classic Yahoo Mail.
Now, the thing is, you don’t always have to switch to IE6 for browsing the Classic Yahoo Mail, even if you switch back to Firefox version, you still get the IE6 as your preferences have been saved on the website and the new version is just a click away.
