Just logged in this am to check my mail ... yessssss. The interface looks different, I'll have to try it out some.

Thank god. I'm always pushing my quota, ever after using YahooPOP to download my old mail. It fills up fast.

 

[iamme]

woohoo! 100MB!

I can't even get to yahoo.com right now.

They did this as an attempt to compete with the *beta* gmail service. Here is a nice slashdot thread http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=04/06/15/1226202&mode=thread&tid=126&tid=95

I'll just stick with my *beta* gmail service as it's got a much nicer interface.

Wonder what they'll do when they have to compete with the stable version of their service when anyone can register.

YAY! It can hold even more junkmail now. As if there were an actual limit in the first place. I think my acct was at 10mb and I still never received any warning or disruption of service.

It is MEGA-slow right now. NOt Hot

Good news: 100MB for my yahoo, which is becoming my main email (trying to change from hotmail but some friends still email to hotmail).
Bad news: ePrompter does not work at this moment. Hopefully they will have updated version soon.

 

[foolish501]

if i have to put up with the slowness in return for 100mb of mail space, then put me back to 6mb

 

[Strider63841]

troof!

 

[thephatp]

Yeah, it's painfully slow right now, but this really is a great deal!

I have 3 accounts, and they've all been upgraded now.

For those of you who have accounts that have not been upgraded, just give it time. My 6.0M was upgraded first, and then the other two 4.0M were upgraded. So it WILL happen!

Hopefully it will speed up soon, too!

too bad there is no pop service.
