I only get a few, uh, interesting emails a day, and some days none (at one point is was 10-20 a day). Yep. I do actually look in there at least once a day. I signed up during a transition [under pressure from competitors in the "freebie so we can talk them into a paid account" email market], the result of which, in short order, was that they improved their spam filtering, increased the size of free account storage, removed the trash and spam mailboxes from being counted against the users storage ... ... Nevertheless, I kept the sig in the faint hope that people would send email to where I can use my preferred email client - I don't really like yahoo but SVEN made me do it. Alas, the people who actually look and figure out the ojiii and the comcast.net seem to be few and far between. [For those that don't figure it out, I forward their email from Yahoo to my comcast address, and still use my preferred email client. ;-] ObNostalgia: Bring back tin, bring back Mosaic, bring back ***CONNECTION LOST*** I first read this newsgroup (and many others) using tin... Brings a tear to my eye thinking about it, no mouse, no light, no motorcar ![]() Yeah. Lotta emotional pain the day I finally canceled my unix shell account, abandoning tin, rtin, pine. But in all honesty, I'd never go back. ;- Getting too lazy now that I'm fully advancing into geezerhood. -- OJ III [Email to Yahoo address may be burned before reading. Lower and crunch the sig and you'll net me at comcast.] |
