Everytime I want to go to my mailbox, I have to sign-in and go through the Robot questions, etc. I just want to hit the mail icon and get my mail. I am going to Google Chrome to get my mail because it comes right up when I hit the mail button. I am going to switch my browser to Chrome if this cant be fixed. It used to work but all of a sudden, it asks me to sign in every time.
