M$ + Yahoo = Disaster for Y! Users

[James Sissel]

I don't mind paying them $20 a year for a 24x7 post office.  I download everything from them every 15 minutes while my PC is running.  Better than I could do at home.  I also don't mind paying the phone company for a phone, the gas company for gas, the electricity company for electricity, etc.  Sure, I COULD do all that myself ... but why?
   
  Now if Micro$oft buys them I do object to paying them even one penny even IF they could actually provide a good product.

Only when someone else holds it hostage, like Yahoo has always done.
Unless you pay them $x, you can't download your email.

That's why I will never let any company host my email for me.
