They did it to me a couple years ago.

The home page is Yahoo! for my account now even though my original account was at pacbell.net, but of course I never use that home page. :)

What I really hate the most is their damn web-based e-mail has ads splashed all over the place now.

They just started the ad crap last year. I wrote and complained that since I was paying them to be my ISP, I did not want ads. They basically said "Too bad, we need the additional income money."

So I only use the web-based mail when I am not at home.

att.net
pacbell.net
sbcglobal.net
flash.net
nvbell.net
prodigy.net
snet.net
swbell.net
bellsouth.net

Were all changed to Yahoo for their Email..

Subject: [H] EMail opinions?

I use xdsl from AT&T via BellSouth.net. I rcvd a notice that AT&T wants to MOVE me to their NEW EMail/Webpage/Whatever service. OK. I just finished re-identifying myself via their NEW login frontend............ Anyway, it seems that AT&T is moving all of its' EMail business to Yahoo.com. Personally, I suspect they need the bandwidth for their new TV service; but I could be so wrong!

The two new email ip's I now have for POP and SMTP are Yahoo and located in Sunnyvale, CA. Kinda fer away for a pooboy in GA! Funnier still is that NeoTrace tells me my route will be: Chattanooga-New Orleans-Nashville-Cleveland-Philidelphia-?Virginia-Sunnyvale..... (I suppose the ?Virginia node is the NSA for now!)

I will deal with local futz about Eudora/TBird to use this new service. I use POP ATM, but, may try SMTP for the added SSL security (if there is any?). Both Eudora and TBird seem to do SMTP.......... I think?

Right now I am looking for opinions of others that use Yahoo for EMail............ Before I start this conversion. I do so know it will not be clean and tidy! LOL!
Thank you very much,
Duncan
