A belated comment: I used to subscribe to Yahoo's "Mail Plus" service at $20/year, and felt ripped off this year when I found out that they were giving away IMAP for free. The IMAP service has an unpleasant limitation, too, even for paying customers: every few days, you have to sign on to Yahoo through a desktop system, or they stop accepting your mobile authentications. It's a surprise. So now I leave Thunderbird open all day at home to access my Yahoo account via free IMAP and automatically move any incoming messages over to my new mail account elsewhere. --RC _______________________________________________ bblisa mailing list [email protected] http://www.bblisa.org/mailman/listinfo/bblisa
