I don't know how long they'll be around judging by their rapidly
falling stock prices, but I did set my wife up with a Yahoo
account several months back so I can use fetchmail to grab it for
her when it's possible to get online (and then she can grab it from
the Linux pop server over the network). Between the two of us, that's
the only free e-mail account we have anymore.
