Have you considered trying the older, original version of Yahoo! mail?

If you click on "Options" there should be a link that will take you
back to the old version.  The new version uses some fancy new features
called "AJAX" that will dynamically load the messages pane.  This may
be confusing JAWS and making it think the content has changed and need
to be re-read to the user.  I can't be sure of this without looking at
JAWS but I strongly suspect this as AJAX is becoming very popular as a
tool for developing web sites and is also receiving a great amount of
criticism because it tends to confuse and interfere with accessibility
software.


Two more cents from the peanut gallery...
