I think yahoo has something where if you pay them
money or allow them to spam you, you can get your
mail via their POP server with a normal mail client.
I use Yahoo Mail because of the 6 megs of space, more
than I get from my ISP for mail. It's also immune
to those stupid Outlook viruses. :) _I_ have to be
stupid and download then try to run attachments
that would infect my computer, which I'm not. :)
