I went on SBC dsl before they got into the Yahoo thing (They had something with Prodigy back then) and have refused to "upgrade". Strangely enough I haven't experienced problems.
On the other hand I have several other email addresses I use for various things, so I don't use SBC much, but my wife does.


A reliable simple email service with webmail access for a cheap price would seem to have a market and not just in our area.

Speaking of email, has anyone tried out the Mozilla stand alone email client, Thunderbird? (It's open source)
I've been checking it out for a couple days because I had heard some good things about its built in spam filtering and so far it seems to work rather well.

Hello Todd, I"ve been having problems with Yahoo at
least since July. Both in and out. Emails are either
bounced or they just disappear, mostly the latter. I'm
exploring my options to change where I have my e-mail.
I'm with SBC-Yahoo DSL- I guess that is what I get for
being cheap:-}

trying to block *delivery* of emails to dynamic-range MX records.


I can understand refusing to receive inbound
connections from DUL hosts,
even if I don't agree with it, but outbound? This is
ticking me off just a
little. :/
