Logging into mail.yahoo.com works fine for me using the latest trunk build.  The
URL works as expected after logging in.

I have the same problem but with a lil twist.
I am using windows 2000, I can log onto my yahoo mail just fine, I can browse my
mail box just fine. 
Only when I try and click on the "compose" icon to make a new email is when I
get the constant refreshing.
After trying to compose an email, no other part of the email works then, I can
click on icons and the browser does go to whichever I send it to..but after
loading, there is a constant refreshing that will never stop until I click the
stop button.
So my problem is a little different as I can click on links with no problems,
untill I try to compose an email, then every thing goes haywire.
Only if I either close the tab that email is on and then open a new one and
relog into email, it it fixed, well.. untill I try and compose a letter.

I also got the bug with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.1)
Gecko/20020826, yet Netscape 6 (Gecko/20011128 Netscape6/6.2.1 ) doesn't have
any problems with Yahoo Mail.
