Based on: http://cristi.100free.com/e-mail.htm [source for this link: emailaddresses.com forum post]

1. Go to http://cn.mail.yahoo.com/.

2. Click on the blue button

3. Enter your desired username and press the button at the bottom. If the username is already taken, you will see text in red at the top. Keep trying until you come up w/ one that's not already taken.

4. Follow the pic

A: Check the available options here.

B: Enter any zip code from this page.

Click the button at the bottom.

5. You should be taken to a page having two buttons to choose from. Click the right one (that has 1000M on it). [in my case, I got a page where I had to enter my chosen password twice and the image verification code again, am guessing it was so since I haven't clicked on the button in the earlier step for a long time as I was taking screenshot and adding text on the pic]

6. Log in to yahoo messenger using your newly created yahoo id and add one of your friends who's currently online to your friends list. Make sure he/she adds you as well and exchange a message or two.

7. http://cn.mail.yahoo.com/event/mail_1g/1gb_06.htm should have popped up already. If not, go there. Click on the bottom yellow button that has 1G on it. You should see:

If you don't get the page w/ the above pic and are using Opera, switch to IE to continue (only till the end of this tutorial). I haven't tested in Firefox.

8. You now have a 1 GB yahoo inbox, but it's in chinese. To set the language to english:

a. Log in to your account at http://mail.yahoo.com. Click on Options (It's to the right below your account name)

b. Click on the last link at the left to edit your profile. Enter your password to continue.

c. Click on the first of two 'Edit' buttons.

d. Click on the link at the bottom (see the screenshot below):

toEnglish.jpg

e. Choose the 1st one in the drop down menu. Press the first button.

f. Press 'I Accept'. Click 'Finished'.

g. Log out and log back in.

9. For POP3 access:

a. Click 'Mail Options' at the top right.

b. Under 'Management', click on 'POP Access and Forwarding'.

c. Review the options, click on 'POP Settings' and press 'Save'.

Now you should be able to use your mail client and access this account. (I tried in MS outlook 2003, was about to send messages fine, but not retrieve. I am not sure if this is the case w/ just me or everyone else.)

:)

Hrmm, I just want a 1GB mail account with POP3 access damnit!!  :angry:

Did you try checking if POP3 is working w/ your Yahoo! .cn account (assuming you signed up)?

BTW, you have http://spymac.com offering 1 GB account w/ POP3.

    • Threads scales past half a billion users, brings deeper community and feed controls by Fiza Ali Meta has announced Threads crossing a major milestone of 500 million monthly active users. And, at the heart of this growth sits something simple: communities. From books to basketball, parenting to music, Threads says its rise has been powered by people clustering around shared interests and, in turn, giving the platform its identity. In response, the platform is expanding its Communities feature beyond beta and introducing a set of new tools designed to make participation easier and more engaging. A redesigned Communities Hub will now appear in the main navigation menu, allowing users to jump between groups without leaving their feed. Each community will also receive a distinct Community Icon, giving them clearer visual identity and making them easier to recognise across the platform. Then there’s Community Progress, which is a kind of live gauge showing how close a topic is to becoming a full-fledged community, alongside guidance on how users can contribute to its development. In addition, Meta is also expanding its Community Champions programme, recognising more users who actively contribute to community engagement. And then things go more local; Local Communities is already available in 100 countries, including North America, South America, Asia, and Europe but are now rolling out with native-language tags starting in Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. The platform is also expanding Live Chats to more communities in the coming weeks, adding features such as co-hosting and the ability to quote moments directly into users’ feeds. Beyond communities, Meta is tightening the loop between users and their feeds. Earlier this year came "Dear Algo," a feature that lets people tell Threads what they want more or less of. Now it’s being paired with a new tool, "Your Algo." It allows people to adjust how frequently certain topics appear, with options lasting one, three, or seven days. Meta says these preferences remain private and can be managed alongside “Dear Algo” in a unified settings hub. The rollout begins in the US, Canada, UK, Australia, and New Zealand. Finally, the company says these changes are part of an ongoing effort to refine Threads based on user feedback and that further updates will continue as the platform evolves.
    • You pay just $100 per TB with this rare 4TB PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD deal by Sayan Sen SSDs and GPUs are incredibly hard to get nowadays due to high pricing. Discounts are quite rare which is why we report on them as soon as we spot a good deal. For example AMD's new 9070 GRE was finally up for sale at a very good price of just $500 thanks to a special coupon. Sadly that deal is gone but if you happen to be looking for a 4TB NVMe SSD and can spend around $400 there is a really good offer on sale that you should not miss out on as TeamGroup's 4TB G50 model is on sale for that that price which means you are only paying $100 per TB, a very good deal in the current market (purchase link under the specs table down below). The TeamGroup T-FORCE G50 NVMe SSD is a PCIe Gen4 drive and as such it promises to deliver sequential read speeds of up to 5,000 MB/s, helping accelerate game loading, file transfers, and everyday computing tasks. Since this is a 4TB drive you can use it for a gaming library to take advantage of things like DirectStorage. The SSD features an InnoGrit controller and SLC caching technology to support consistent performance. An ultra-thin, patented graphene heatsink is included to aid in heat dissipation. Get it at the link below: Team Group T-FORCE G50 4TB Internal SSD (TM8FFE004T0C129): $449.99 + $50 off w/ promo code SSF69668, limited offer => $39.99 (Sold and Shipped by Newegg US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • I agree. I also think Phil stayed too long. They should definitely fire whoever thought all a console platform needed was Call of Duty, Elder Scrolls, and Fallout to survive. Asha and crew are still saying they need more Elder Scrolls and Fallout games. They simply don't get it.
