They make enough money?

What's the limit on money you can make? I didn't know there was one.

They've been charging for months now. It seems the big sites have finally realised you make fuck all unless you actually sell something. In the long term less free crap be it adult or not can only help all of us trying to make $'s from this.

Weren't they supposed to make money off the 100 emails of crap they put in your box a month?

Someone already posted about yahoo, and I said to them:
"Who the fuck uses a yahoo e-mail"?

No serious person is using a free e-mail to do business.

This is a non-issue for 99.999999% of all webmasters. Only spammers & newbies on a freehost will be affected by this.
Who gives a shit?

You have no clue what you are talking about do you? keep talking out of your ass and maybee someday we will listen... I'd say 70% of large websites use hotmail addresses or yahoo addresses... and i bet you arent even smart enough to figure out why..

I have over a hundred domains and that many email addresses they all forward to a yahoo account. My personal email address is a yahoo account. That way if I drop a domain or change servers or drop out of webmastering altogether I dont have to worry bout a changed email address. Looks like I for one am going to be paying for an email account! Couldnt have imagined it a week back..

It would be interesting to know how this affects email collectors like join4free...
