    Yahoo mail now 100MB

    Anyone else notice that we now have 100MB of space for every Yahoo mail account?

    SWEET!

    Now they've completely killed my reason to ever pay for their email. Though 2GB for $20 a year.

      2GB space? What are you sending? DVD's? Or receiving 2000000000000 spam emails returns that want a share in things, or those pills advertised?

              personally I think it's completely ridiculus with 2gb mailboxes

                  My problem with Yahoo is the following from their terms of service.

                  . . . For clarity, Yahoo! Mail Plus is a "Service" as defined in the Yahoo! Terms of Service. Yahoo! can update and change the Agreement from time to time without notice to you. During the term of the Agreement, you can find the most recent version of the . . .

                      Why would anyone need this much space? Do they at least have POP access?

                          bah. As a german, I've come to expect free pop/web email (I think web.de even has free IMAP), thanks to free mail pioneer gmx.net

                            Bloody hell, man! You complain about getting only 250 HP and yet you are happy with a mere 100 Mb. Be logical
