Yahoo mail- free popmail?

eSDee · 10-24-2002, 01:33 AM

I thought that I heard that Yahoo was starting to charge for Pop access to email as of a couple of months ago. However I was checking out the info on the free mail, and it says something about free pop3 still:

Anyone know if it's free or if it costs money?

Thanks in advance.

all i know is that for some reason, i can no longer access my isp mail from there..

and because of that, i rarely ever use my yahoo account anymore.

They sure make it look like it's a free feature, but I think they worded it carefully enough so that they're not actually saying it's free. I had a girlfriend who was an expert at being misleading like this.

Nuts, were you paying for the service at all?

Does anyone have more information on free pop yahoo mail. I am paying for it now, but would be interested in changing. BTW, there is also a program that is able to interpret web mail, and act as a pop service.

I just gave it a try & I'm still able to check my POP3 mail thru Yahoo... or were you talking about checking Yahoo mail thru POP3?

Jeff, I was talking about using a mail client such as Outlook to check Yahoo email.
