Yahoo mail hasn't been down once for me today. I think the "outage" isn't as wide spread as you think. Have you checked your firewall?

Me neither. Come to think of it, I don't remember the last time Yahoo mail was down. Are commercial email accounts treated differently?

I don't get a DNS error.

We can still check two of our accounts (the most important ones).

I get an HTML page with the text:

    Sorry, the page you requested was not found.

    Please check the URL for proper spelling and capitalization. If you're having trouble locating a destination on Yahoo!, try visiting the Yahoo! home page or look through a list of Yahoo!'s online services. Also, you may find what you're looking for if you try searching below.

That doesn't seem like a firewall/networking problem on our end.

I don't understand why the parent post is downvoted to -6.

His code tag makes the page super super wide.

And that's his fault?

Setting a CSS width and overflow-x:scroll on code blocks would fix the problem quickly.
