Summary

You must be logged into Yahoo for this add-on to work!

How to update the add-on: Remove old version first then install new version.

The difference between this and the other add-ons are: This add-on only fetches a small data (kb) instead of the full page (mb) what the other add-ons are doing. For this reason, i decided to create my own notifier for Yahoo.

Very useful. Normally, yahoo email alerts don't seem to work, but this extension alerts you AND allows to read and respond to the emails via the extension pop out. I don't understand these other negative ratings...?
