I'd say it's pretty badly broken if Yahoo intends for their web mail
to continue to be a general purpose mail system for consumers. If
they want to make it something else, that's certainly their right, but
it would have been nice if they'd given us some advance warning so we
could take the yahoo.com addresses off our lists.
