Looks like Quickfind IS a new feature of Firefox, and it's interfering with this script. If you turn off Quickfind in Prefs/Advanced/General by unchecking "search for text as I type", it won't interfere anymore. But the drag is, when you type in a search box a name, FF won't remember what you've previously typed. Perhaps there is a script that fixes this?

This a great script that works. However, It seems that a feature in Firefox at least interferes. It's something called Quickfind pop's up when you type a letter. You can mess around with it and get the Macro's to work, but it would be best if this Quickfind didn't pop up at all. I can't figure out if Quickfind is part of another script i've installed, or if it's a feature of Firefox. I did a help search in FF and can't find any info on it. If I could turn it out, that would rule.

Thanks!

Sorry, I should have been move descriptive. From main screen (where it says "Welcome, blah blah!"), if I press 'u', it does not go to the Inbox. I guess I can press 'g' then select Inbox, but I found that if I change the uCommand function as I have commented earlier, I can just press 'u' to go to Inbox - I know this may not be what you have intended.

@Min Lee: please try the new version, to check if the problem is solved.

Updated to version 0.3:

- corrected a problem where the "back to folder" shortcut wouldnt work on a message sent by yahoo user;

- added "move to folder" on an open message;

@Min Lee: it works with mine; do you have any other script that may change the code in the webmail (remove ads, or something)?

Updated to version 0.2, since the QuickSilver-like interface had stopped working due to changes in yahoo code.

Thanks much for writing this.

I found that 'u' command doesn't work as expected for me. So I modified uCommand function as follows, which seems to work:

function uCommand()
{
checkMailCommand();
}
