I'm not sure what you're talking about - did they upgrade the
interface again? I may have seen an email about it, but if it required
action on my part to use it, it didn't happen.
In the webmail version that I have, there is a black toolbar
immediately underneath the red Verizon toolbar. One of the buttons
says "basic version". I am loath to try it because I'm happy with my
current webmail configuration, and I don't want to lose it in an
"upgrade".
I still have the message title, time stamp and date. So I don't know
if my interface is what you have now, or what you want to get back.
Do we have the ability to embed images like a screencap in these
posts? If not, could you post a capture of your offending interface
window somewhere that we could see which version you are using?

In addition, now only the day and year are given in the Received column, and not the hour and minutes. I find a complete timestamp useful.
