Is there a way to do spell check and read receipts with Yahoo mail?-Collection of common programming errors

other-yahoo-mail Retrieving original web address
discoverer: anonymous Yes and no. Classic and Regular handle spell check differently. In Classic it is the first item on the Format bar. In Regular it is the last item on the Format bar. Both have a check mark in the icon. Write the complete email and then click on the icon. In Classic a list will appear with corrections for the first word which is wavy underlined. It will then advance through each word with a wavy underline. In Regular all errors will have a wavy underline. Right click on errors for corrections. Note: If the check does not appear at the end of the format bar in Regular you may have been downgraded due to the capability of your internet connection or browser. I recommend using the Firefox browser. The spell check is built in and works at ALL websites. —– Yahoo Mail does not have a delivery indication or the capability to request receipts. Some separate email programs can request a receipt but the person receiving the email must also have a compatible program and allow the receipt to be returned. There are some web sites that give you a graphic to embed in your email and then they let you know if mail has been read. If someone blocks graphics from unknown people then it doesn’t work.

Example: http://www.getnotify.com/

There are also sites where you must add their domain name to the end of the address and then they trace it for you.

Example: http://www.readnotify.com/
