In a nut shell, what his screenies show, as I've found, is:

He is trying to get to his YahooMail from Yahoo's mobile main page (m.yahoo.com) which does work... and clicking on the Mail link there, which doesn't. I have tried this.

I believe he is also trying to go straight to the mobile YahooMail page (m.yahoo.com/mail) but that doesn't work.

I went to the standard YahooMail login page on my Kindle, which does work, though it complained at me about incompatible browsers and had a link to Yahoo Mail Classic, which also worked. I then figured "hey, I'm logged in and told it to remember me, so I'll try going to the mobile mail page and see if the mobile version of the login screen was the problem so I can maybe bypass it" and that did not work.

...so, the verdict is that I can get to Yahoo Mail in Classic mode, though on my K2, the side menu options take up so much screen real estate that I didn't bother to mess with it much. I can't get to Yahoo's Mobile Mail page, but I can get to the main Yahoo Mobile page where news and stuff is.

I did not try this using Kindle fw ver. 2.5.7, but you did and you said it didn't work then either. However, I can confirm getting Gmail to work in either firmware version.

I haven't tried other websites yet. Hopefully it's a problem with Yahoo, and not the Kindle.
EDIT: actually, since you say you just now realized you're using 2.5.7 and had already tried getting to YahooMail but can't, it's not a problem created by the update as neither I nor you can get there.

Well, I had the version 2.5.5 and if I could actually keep Bond in bookmarks, then there is the option to error in the address.

try to enter the same way as always and was closed.

OK, now there is another, but can not be https: / /

if so, crash. (see capture)


https: is safer, though.

In any case, remember that before this, with the 2.5.5 note a change in the permit.

At first, select the links google.news, WORKS prefect.

from 2011-01 and no access to links that open another window.

it is profoundly awkward and uncomfortable. and limits and many navigation options.
