Forces me to use mobile email

Why can't I use the same email version on my tablet as I do on my laptop. I don't want to use the Yahoo mail app but when I open Firefox and put in Yahoo mail, it puts the little mg.mail.Yahoo and I get some mobile version of my email. I want the regular mail set up. Why does this happen and can I fix it?
