Hi notat,
I took a look at the problem and I do not think that I can just solve it with CSS and I think a listener based solution would likely add too much overhead.... Yahoo! Mail is already a memory-leak and resource hog. Adding another listener does not seem worth it.

The problem is that Yahoo is not writing clean code. When they load the Options page, they use the same ID for "toolbar" as they do in the rest of the app. The problem is that they create multiple divs with the same ID which is a big no-no.

Part of the issue is that the script is not reloaded with each load of an iframe (which is how they load the Mail options into the page)....so I am not able to isolate the #toolbar that pertains to the Mail Options. I only can access at load time the "good" toolbar that later gets hidden by the options page.
Sorry I could not be of more assistance.

hi,
i'm not an expert but understand that its is all about yahoo side.

I have one more question, is it possible to write script that can automatically fetch emails from external mail accounts (already added in yahoo mail).
I googled for that but did not get any answer on the web.

thank you for your time.
