Agree about you Yahoo comments. Why a huge ISP and media company like Cox would dump it's email customers onto an ad filled, insecure email service like Yahoo is beyond me. And news flash to both Cox and Yahoo, a lot of us use third party email apps for our email - I'm going to run my organization mail list on the Yahoo web page? <OK, I'm done laughing and I'm back.> I'm not a computer guru by any means, but I do know my around these things a bit. And I wasted the better part of my previous Saturday trying to get the Yahoo thing set up. The worst part was getting Yahoo to make nice with Thunderbird, an email app I've used for years. No thanks to either Cox or Yahoo, I was finally able to figure out how to set up my Thunderbird but it took a lot of fiddling around and a lot of online research. Three days later, I'm still steaming over the experience.
As far as dropping Cox, unfortunately that's not going to be a good option for a lot of us. I do use Cox as my ISP and I do have to say, their internet service is pretty robust and reliable. I've had very few issues with their internet service. So I'll grit my teeth and stay with them. But I've been getting a lot of attractive offers from Verizon for Internet service recently.
FYI Verizon has no Email service, and they simply killed it off, instead of transferring to someone else.
