Re: More OT computer stuff

Thank you for writing to Yahoo! Mail.

We understand that the Address AutoComplete feature is not working in
your Yahoo! Mail account. We apologize for any inconvenience you may
have experienced.

We appreciate your suggestion and product feedback. And at this time,
the feature that you're describing is not currently available. However,
we absolutely value your input. The best way to send us your opinion on
ways that we can improve our products and services is to visit our blog
and enter your comments there. Not only can you enter your comments
about Y! Mail, but you can read up on the latest news about product
updates, new release, bug fixes, and service announcements. The
official Y!Mail

That was what they sent me.

Mike, I looked around some and find nowhere to turn on that feature. Have
yet to find someplace to send my comments to Google, but then again, I just
got up and haven't looked hard.

thanks guys.

First hangup I've found is that yahoo mail no longer autofills in the

but
havent heard back yet.

And if you do hear back they will tell you it has absolutely nothing to
do
with yahoo, and everything to do with your browser.


And here's another "What Duck said"!

The autofill feature is SOFTWARE specific (e.g., Internet Explorer) and
has
nothing to do with the server, whether Comcast, Google, Yahoo, Microsoft,
or
whatever. I understand it's not difficult to include this feature in
software builds and that it is now a part of public domain -- fire off a
"complaint" to the Google Chrome development team (I understand this
version
is a sort of public Beta) and chances are that they will include the
autofill capability in a near future release of Chrome.

Another idea: check through all of Chrome's "Preferences" and "Options" to
see if the feature is already there, but just not checked as active. If
this is the case, put a check in its box to activate it. I know that this
feature can be turned on and off in ALL MS Office products, as well as in
Internet Explorer and Outlook Express.
