Help with Yahoo Mail Beta?ie If you absolutely cannot get into your email account, you should fill out these Help Forms and notify Yahoo of your case so that they might offer you help or take notice of your specific account troubles:

In order to receive communications from Yahoo when your Y!Mail account is inaccessible, you’ll need to provide them with an alternate email address if you haven’t already: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/edit/al...
If by some fluke you CAN make it into your account, you CAN switch back to the "classic" account format. There is a "Switch Back" link in the upper left hand corner of the screen when you're viewing Yahoo! Mail Beta. Click on that link and Yahoo will ask you if you're sure you want to switch back. Confirm the switch and Yahoo will process the reversion within seconds.
You can also use the following webpage and click on the “No thanks, remind me later” link. That will hopefully take you back to the classic email account format: http://us.rd.yahoo.com/evt=40777/*http:/... If that doesn’t work, view a plain text version of your Y!

If your browser is not properly configured to view that type of higher version's increased graphical layout of Yahoo! Mail beta then you can't log in to Yahoo! Mail Beta Usually, then
easiest solution is to upgrade your browser to the most recent version:
Download the latest Firefox browser%26gt;%26gt; http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/
Download the Internet Explorer browser%26gt;%26gt; http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloa...
If you are trying to get to your Yahoo Beta Mail with any browser and getting a "Page Not Displayed" or similar message or errors, unfortunately there is not a simple solution.
A month ago or so I was experiencing similar problems. I tried every answer people had posted and nothing worked. I had cleared the cache and history, booted into SafeMode with networking to clear all temp files and still couldn't fix the problem.
Because Yahoo Mail Beta is beta software (almost but not quite ready for prime time) they help very little with it. Beta software is basically in testing mode. I'm sure Yahoo is using Answers to guage how well the software is working. Many people post their issues here so they get a good bug report of the software. But, since it is Beta, they have no solutions. They will simply try to fix these bugs when Beta goes into production for everyone.
With all of that said, last month I finally had a chance to switch back to the original version and all is fine now. You cannot change back to the original w/o accessing beta first. I had to do it late at night when Beta was fully working for me at home to find the link to switch back. The link is there close to your user name AFTER you successfully login to your Beta account.
There is a site you can access to check your Beta mail if you keep getting Page Not Displayed or a blank screen. It is basically text only, but at least you can check your mail. Here is the link: http://wap.oa.yahoo.com
Oh yes, for all of the people posting that Yahoo phone number for support, it does cost $29.95 to speak to a live person.
