I'm currently on a 6mb limit and the proposal to go to a 100mb limit doesn't mention Money

Rest assured if it does they're wasting they're time with the likes of myself as I read,send and delete on the same day

cheers

Still well behind the new GMAIL from google - 1GB email space. I've got a beta testing account and it's lush.

I notice the accounts are selling from ?25+ on ebay. God knows how google will fund it all!

So its a competition war then?

1GB sounds a bit extreme

As if CIA and GCHQ arn't reading everything already . If you believe in civil liberty you should type Bomb in every message.

I have a yahoo email account and have subscribed to their $20 POP mail service.

They recently upgraded my account to include a 2Gb inbox!!!

I am never going to delete an email again!

i've got a bog standard bt/yahoo anytime account, I got a mail this week saying they were upgrading the system to give me 2 Gb mail storage, didn't have to do anything or pay anything, they just did it. I reckon there must be a war going on with google or summat

I've got free email adresses for both yahoo.co.uk and yahoo.com.au (from when I lived in Melbourne)and got a similar message for both - see below.

POP works for both (if you turn on the option) so I don't use the online storage anyway unless I'm travelling.

It won't be the CIA in the states who track your emails, it is the NSA who along with GCHQ are part of the Echelon network...
