I've never had a problem with this and I've been a huge gmail fan
since Yahoo decided to deactivate my primary id four years ago and
cost me control of most of my Yahoo groups and about 160GB of email.

However, Ric, you may get your wish - Yahoo announced yesterday (I
think) that they are downsizing by 1% (after already having downsized
by about 5% not too long ago).  I used to like Yahoo, and I'll work
with it when I have to, but I avoid it wherever I can.

Them's my $0.02.
