Hello, and welcome to BigBlueBall! 🙂

Yahoo had a “hack” where you could have tabbed IMs in Messenger v8.x via a regkey entry, but it was heavily unstable and unusable for the most part, not to mention they’ve removed this function from their v9.0 beta builds.

I really don’t foresee Yahoo adding tabbed IM support anytime soon… hopefully I’m wrong though. If you have Windows Vista however, you could try their Yahoo! Messenger For Vista preview releases. 🙂

In the Vista test build of messenger they have the Tabs option.
Surprisingly, it works well. Have no clue if they will add it to
other builds in the future or not.
