How To send an email in Yahoo
1. From the Yahoo mail welcome screen or from any of the mail
screens where you can see Compose and Compose Text Msg
buttons displayed. select either
Compose- This allows you to compose a message that can
include special fonts, emoticons, colours etc-- Normally you select
this.
Compose Text Msg- For text messages only without any special
pictures,icons etc
2. Enter an email address in the To field (mandatory) and if
necessary the Cc and Bcc fields.
If you want to send to more than one person you need to separate the
addresses with commas. e.g. jdoe1@abc.com,jdoe2@abc.com,jdoe3@abc.com.
There is maximum limit of 100. If you regularly send emails to
multiple users then consider using a mailing
list. Instead of typing in the email addresses you can also use
nicknames or select them from the address
book.
If any of you contacts are in the address book you can save
yourself the typing and select them from the address book. To do this
place the mouse pointer over the To, Cc or Bcc label ( the pointer
becomes a hand) and click. You can need to check the appropriate To,
Cc, Bcc box next to the contact name or names.

3. You should be able to spell check the message and save it in the
drafts folder. When I tried it deleted my message. So before you try
these options please test them!
4. Click send to send the message. You should receive a
confirmation screen saying the message was sent.

5.If you get an error message (see screen shot below) then correct
the mistake and click send again.

NOTES:
Cc stands for carbon copy : Anyone listed
here will get a copy of the message and anyone who receives the
message will know who else the message was sent to.
Bcc Blind carbon copy: Anyone listed here
will get a copy of the message but anyone who receives the message
will not know that the person(s) on the Bcc line were sent the
message. It is recommended that you always use this field when sending
messages to confidential mailing lists.
nicknames: When you add a contact to
the address book you enter a contact name and a contact address. The
contact name is called the nick name and can be used in place of the
contact email address. Before the email is sent the system will
substitute the email address in place of the nickname.
mailing list: A mailing list is a
group of email addresses. Lists are useful when you frequently need to
send email to many people at once. When you send an email to a mailing
list the system will automatically send the email to each member of
the list . If you want to keep your list membership private then send
to the list using the Bcc field.
