Yahoo Mail - We didn't understand your request

mr_fishbulb

When I try to view some of my older messgaes (January and before) I get a "We didn't understand your request" error so I can't see some of my emails no matter how many times I try.

I've tried clearing cookies and temp files, trying on another machine, trying on a completely different network, nothing works.

Can anyone help?

(Please don't say "Try Gmail. It's much better" cos I need to see these old emails).

Hummm...never come across that one, just logged into my yahoo account to check if I'd get the same problem. I got emails on my account which are a tad older, one which was form this date Date: Wed, 4 Nov 1998 20:50

accessed it no problem!

Have you tried emailing their support? it could be you have links which have become corrupted

If it happens again, try using Mail2Web to log in instead.
