yahoo home screen no longer indicates that I have new mail

I have the most recent version of Mozilla Firefox, Windows XP OS, and
Yahoo as my home page.

Up to several weeks ago, on the right side of the Yahoo Home page
screen, it indicated next to the Mail icon whether or not I had NEW
mail.

Now, there is no indication whether I have new or unread mail or not.

Any suggestions on how to get this information to return?

best, Aaron

I haven't really used/noticed this facility much at all, but at least
now (for several Yahoo! accounts), it indeed does not *directly* give an
indication whether you have new or unread mail or not, but when you
*hover* your cursor over the Mail icon, it will popup a short
From/Subject/Date list of the most recent mail and, as in the actual
mailer, unread mail will be listed in bold font.

HTH.
