Yahoo server problem
 

I have two Yahoo accounts myself, one being Yahoo.ie (the Irish version -- I live in N.Ireland myself)

Today, when trying to access my mails during the break at work, I saw the server had problems:
- first I went to http://mail.yahoo.ie and entered my password and username, and tried signing in. But instead of accessing my account, I got a screen saying there was a network error (a completely blank screen with black characters, an error message by the browser it seems)

- after a while, during next break at work, I tried signing in again and this time it was succesful. I read my mails without problems, then selected the 'log out' option. Normally you then get a Yahoo page saying "you have succesfully closed your mailbox". However, this page couldn't be found, and I got the network error page again.

It is definitely not an error from the PC at work, because I can access all other websites without issues.

What I want to ask: is there any chance that due to not logging out correctly, the mailbox would not be closed correctly? I wouldn't want a colleague to be able to access my account. I'm a bit afraid that the next person surfing to mail.yahoo.ie could get into my mailbox. Despite never asking to remember password, I did erase the cookies and empty the cache, but I'm not entirely sure if that's sufficient. It's not that I don't trust colleagues, but I also don't feel like them being able to access my mailbox.

Hi,

See if something like using mail.yahoo.com which may be based on a different server gets around the problem as it may well do and solve your probem as your Yahoo id I believe is international not just one country, so it doesn't matter where you login I believe.

our yahoo.se had a pop3 mail problem just two days ago. ?
so could it be that they are doing some work on all their servers and take country for country? just me guessing.
