Is it just me?

Or does Yahoo mail really have a bug where even if you enter your correct user name and password you get an "Invalid password" error message? Everytime, I take an extra precaution of verifying it by copying/pasting it from notepad, it seems to work fine. But it fails like 95% of the time even when I know (though can't substantiate) that I have entered the right credentials.

Do you also face this problem? If you work for Yahoo, can you fix this? :)

Hey Rathish, I have faced this issue too. Try logging in through secure mode, it doesn't ask you to re-login! :-)

I've faced this problem too but of course I've never sure if I've typed in the right thing either.
BTW, I saw your name in print today- in The Hindu. Nice beginning ;)
