We have Yahoo Mail set up on our iMac to keep us 'signed in' for 2 weeks (the maximum allowed by Yahoo Mail). When the latest 2 week period expired a few days ago, we were prompted to 'sign in' again, which we did. But, a blank screen appears and our emails are not visible. We've tried this multiple times and have even re-started Firefox, to no avail. We are able to access our emails on our iOS portable devices and using Safari on our iMac, so we believe that the problem isn't with Yahoo Mail. Any suggestions!?
