Recently my email in-box has acquired a new feature I don't like but can't get rid of.

The top of my list of emails is always an advert.
It has an 'S' in the date column and where the little tick boxes are it shows a thumbnail picture.

Because of this picture there is no access to the box and thus I can't tick it for deletion.

It looks like some kind of sticky.

My email client is Yahoo.

Anyone else getting this ?

Dave.

Yes Dave,

I too am getting this and it is an annoyance. There's no chance of deleting it. I'm with BT and they have been telling me for two years that they are ditching Yahoo but no sign yet. As well as the advert 'improvement" I can now only have one email open at a time so it's very difficult if you're writing an email and want to refer to an earlier one. I have to save it as a draft to do this now and I didn't have to a few days ago. That's progress I suppose.  :(

Edit: Not as bad as I thought - there is a setting for having several tabs open - phew!

  Yes same with my yahoo BT email account .I tried to delete it by going into settings and all it will let me do is set a preference for which advert i want to see .Not impressed at all Mike

I paid about £11.00 I think to Yahoo to not see the adverts. This is an annual fee but at least it stopps the ads.
vtsteam:
Can't you guys run a local client and just download mail?

Edit......I see, Yahoo tries to make a premium out of that.

Well, opensource to the rescue:
