Yahoo! email charges
So I discover that Cox is forcing its email users to go to Yahoo!, but it's a bad deal. My main gripe is that Yahoo! wants to charge $5/mo for a basic service like email forwarding. This really sucks.
Also, getting MS Outlook to work with Yahoo! has been a confusing process. I got it to work, but....geeeesh!
I am tiring of Cox. Its ISP has become unreliable as of late. Who needs cable anymore? The only real difficulty is telling everyone who contacts me by email of a new email address. That's like hundreds of contacts.

Cox Webmail has 'Copy into" and "Redirect to" Filter Rule actions. If Yahoo has the same rule actions, a combination of the two rules should do almost the same thing that Webmail forward and retain a copy did. (Forwarded messages will appear to come from you while redirected email will appear to come from the original sender). I don't have a Yahoo account so I can't test it. Yahoo probably doesn't have "Redirect to". If you try it, let us know.

I just transferred my email yesterday. And now my email on yahoo had ads constantly coming in I don’t know what us what anymore. I refuse to pay a cent to yahoo. Let Cox pay them since cox did not decrease our cox bills once they move the email out? Why didn’t us cox users get a decrease in out bills. Cox is so greedy!!!
