Actually using ENABLE_LYNXRC in your lynx.cfg, you can do this. It's not the default configuration. > cannot be changed, but I saw that the modification is valuable for > the session.

Perhaps using "lynx -trace" and comparing the responses would show something. I understand "Lynx OS2" is the dev.20 version, while you're having some problem with current (2.8.5dev.16) code. I haven't experimented with yahoo mail for several months, though.
