582341 2007-08-25 15:14:00 Indeed. I'm with you on that. I refuse to let xtra force me into accepting Yahoos terms. According to Yahoos terms and conditions they want to own my a$$. Anything I send through their mail servers magically belongs to them. No way! Catweazle (2535)
582342 2007-08-26 09:55:00 I don't want to open another can of worms....but something has me puzzled.
When I registered for the 'bubbly' webmail, among my 169 spam messages, were about 20-30 definitely non spam. I cleared them as 'not spam', then opened Outlook Express. I found some of those emails dated back to 20 August!! Considering I never registered for the new webmail system until 24 August, I am left thinking I would probably never have received them, had I not cleared them from the spam holding folder.


Cheers,
Marnie

582343 2007-08-26 11:06:00 You have a point there Marnie. Unless you sign up for the bubble you won't know what has been blocked by the Yahoo spam filters and there is no way of changing the spam settings or unlocking those e-mails unless you sign up with Yahoo. As I have said all along, not giving their customers a choice is what got me going ,so after many years of loyal and hassle-free service from Xtra, I have finally changed ISP. I'm not interested in exporting jobs so a local ISP gets my business because their staff and equipment are NZ-based. Easy. More Kiwis need to support NZ businesses and stop exporting jobs! andrew93 (249)
