I saw you mentioned that you had signed up for Yahoo Mail Plus- how's that working out for ya?<br><br>Any benefits worth signing up for it besides the access I could get through my regular POP mail program?<br><br><br><br>[color:red]You slap my back, I'll slap yours!</font color=red>

Did you consider spymac's email? I think they gave me something like 20MB for free when I first joined (and now they say my quota is 1,048,576 Kb) It has a web interface and POP3 connectivity.. Really cool<br><br>

I already have my Yahoo email, and I'd like to keep it as a permanent fixture for when I move around between jobs and ISP's...<br><br>I also don't wanna be the guy that changes his address 900 times- I'm STILL telling people a year later that I changed my ISP's email address because they keep sending it to the old one...<br><br>[color:red]You slap my back, I'll slap yours!</font color=red>

Guess you shoulda held on to that domain of yours for a while longer, eh? <br><br>I've always preferred to have a domain, just for the luxury of never having to change my email address as well as using aliases to track which companies send/sell my address for the most spam.<br><br>

If more capacity and/or POP3 you're after, then I suggest:<br>- Get spymac.com's email (1GB capacity with POP3) : FREE<br>- Forward your yahoo email to spymac's<br>- Configure Mail.app to get your email from spymac.com<br>- Configure reply-to address to be the yahoo address.<br><br>Would that work? You'll still be using your yahoo email address and gained the benefit of POP3 for free.<br><br>

Nah, I really only changed it because of a spam issue, and it was only different by one character...<br><br>Some people just refused to ever update me in their address books- everyone else followed directions like a sane person...<br><br><br><br>[color:red]You slap my back, I'll slap yours!</font color=red>

Part of it's also that I see Yahoo being around longer than spymac...<br><br>[color:red]You slap my back, I'll slap yours!</font color=red>

It's okay, nothing bad, nothing great...just good. I really needed the extra space and I've had that email for years, no sense in getting rid of it.<br><br>
