Hi Gustav: I know nothing about Yahoo but would suspect it will remain indefinitely. Our ISP has its own client messaging system (Zimbra...IMHO it is an excellent product) which can be configured a number of different ways, can either delete or retain all emails downloaded off to the desktop, can off load all emails to another online storage area like GMail (and possibly Yahoo now). The IPS's Zimbra storage only gives a 1000 MB per account though, so Yahoo may be a good moderately secure backup...like GMail.

Hi all I created a Yahoo Mail account for some testing. It claims to allow you to store 1 TB or about 54 millions e-mails for free? And you have both POP3 and IMAP secure connections. That's a lot. Any gotchas except that anything may not remain free, but still? It could serve as a zero cost backup option. /gustav _______________________________________________ dba-Tech mailing list dba-Tech at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/dba-tech Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
