I Want To Download My Email... Any Suggestions?
Right now I have yahoo.com and I'm trying to download my email onto Thunderbird. I keep getting a "Negative Vibes" message. I've tried some "tricks" to get Yahoo.com to accept my request with no results. What is a good on-line email service that will work with Thunderbird and the WebMail extensions? Thanks ever SO MUCH!

If you have the free yahoo.com account, I don't think you can use a 3rd party email program. Gmail is a better bet.
I'm not dead yet.
There are 3 types of people, those who can count and those who can't.

If you don't want to loose your Yahoo email, give gmx.com a try. I've used it to grab old yahoo and hotmail accounts, both without having the "premium" POP access.
I then of course piped the GMX account into Gmail
