Correct on both. They will start charging for POP access in April, and if you remove all the marketing tabs you lose the ability to POP, I whine all the time to a few VP's over the slowness of the yahoo groups...

(As an aside: Expect this to happen everywhere. The whole purpose of "free" email is to make you go to a website. They cannot do that if you are not even using a browser.) You have to read it via HTTP, or pay a fee for POP3. Said poster said he did receive a message about it. Maybe there is more information in the "Help" section (which is where Yahoo buries a lot of "gotchas")? -- Ben Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | The opinions expressed in this message are those of the author and do | not | necessarily represent the views or policy of any other person, | entity or | organization.
