Hi
 
I am using JAWS 8 and the following things work:
 
Once you have signed into Yahoo, do a links list (Ins F7) . You are looking  
ofr the Bulk link and if you follow the link, the Bulk folder will open.
 
Once the folder opens, do Ins F5 to list form fields. There is a form field  
check box for Select all messages and then antoerh Form field to Move selected 
 messages.
 
Can you take it from there?

Best

Hi,
I have a question about Yahoo! mail.  My  pacbell.net e-mail account uses 
Yahoo's pop and smtp servers, and I connect to  them through Outlook Express, 
which is all fine and dandy, no problem  there.  
 
However, occasionally I find out that some e-mail  that should be coming 
directly to my inbox gets routed to my bulk mail folder  up on Yahoo's server, 
which is where spam typically goes. So I have to sign on  to Yahoo's mail page to 
see what's in there. 
 
The last time that I did this, yesterday, in  fact, I found out that I had at 
least 300 messages in the bulk folder, most of  which was not spam. In the 
past, when I've dealt with this, I opened  individual messages, clicked on the 
button labeled ""Not Spam" and the  messages get routed to my inbox where they 
should have been in the first  place.  Needless to say, it's a real pain to 
have to do it that  way.  So, the crux of the issue is how to mark large numbers 
of messages  without opening them and then tell Yahoo that they're not spam 
and move them  to my inbox, where I can deal with them using Outlook Express.  
Does  anybody know how to do this?
 
Thanks in advance. 
 
Tom
