If it means keeping Yahoo, try anything I hate it. Clicking on a link
would take no longer on Mallorn than the way it is now. Plus you
could look at the message with the photo first and decide to look at
it or not.
I think I will like the new way better, I might change from nomail on
iris-photos. I then would not have to go to Mallorn to see the
pictures. Plus I would not have to worry about attachments with a
virus.
