I was just at Yahoo. Their *Free* mail accounts had just
improved. Instead of 4MB of storage it jumped to 100MB.
And it is still free. Plus the virus scan on attachments
are automatic. Recieving and sending. And if a virus is
detected? It will not open it at all. Almost idiot proof.
Thought someone may be interested in this.

I think it depends on how long you've had a email address
with them. My brother came home from work and logged into
his email and found one from yahoo thanking him for being
a "loyal" yahoo email user and that his storage has now
increased to 100MB. He's had the same email address with
them for 4 years.

According to the Yahoo mail site,
the offer to new customers is

"100MB of email storage
Message size up to 10MB"

Mine is 100 mb's now too -- great : Thanks to Yahoo! and no pop-ups or
targeted ads like will be in Google's e-mail.

but I have the same email address for 4 years too. I had two more addresses
also with yahoo. one is older than that and one is newer . both of them have
increased but the one that I use the most is still at 6 MB. Any Idea where
to get the real cust service for that? I went to the cust support and they
sent me an automated reply but nothing on my issue.
