Re: Yahoo problems

This behavior is most likely related to the behavior some people are  
seeing where Yahoo stays in "Connecting" mode forever and never gets  
you logged in.  Since Yahoo changed their server software, we have  
noticed a marked increase in the number of times that the yahoo server  
will drop the connection.  This shouldn't happen, but there appear to  
be bugs in their server software.  I am in the process of making some  
changes to our Yahoo implementation to better detect when this has  
happened and restart the connection.  This will be available as part of  
our Fire 1.0 release.
