Yahoo Mail to end POP3 service for free users "Effective April 24, 2002, Yahoo! Mail will no longer provide free POP3 Access or Auto Mail Forwarding to Yahoo! Delivers subscribers"
This post was deleted for the following reason:
This is getting pretty fucking annoying...Does anyone besides me even read the front page? It was only 9 posts ago, and it used essentially the same language!!

Read the damn page, don't just search. This isn't your site for posting, it's supposed to be a give and take. If you aren't interested in reading what other people post then you shouldn't be posting here.

arnab: The metafilter search engine isn't google. If you give it two words together, it would appear to search for those words where they occur together. If I might make a suggestion, in future you should search for just "yahoo" and then "pop3". Try it: I just did, and it found yesterdays thread on the first search.

Don't get discouraged, arnab. It happens to everyone.

wsfinkel: FYI there are many people here who don't read every thread, or even read the front page every day. There was a recent metafilter thread, where it turned out that many of us only have time to read 40% of the site now, or even less. Have you noticed how large it's been getting? Also many people only load the last 3 days posts, to avoid snarling bandwidth, so it's certainly possible to miss a thread. This one was less so, admittedly, but I just wanted to make the point that it's not incumbent on anyone to read everything any more.
