Confirmed: changing the browser name in Safari 3.1 UA string makes Yahoo mail complain about unsupported browser. As I tested today I cannot see any warning message about unsupported browser on All-new Yahoo! Mail using WebKit r35203. Any confirmations?

The "Webkit" nightly builds actually use your installed Safari .
