John Veteran Posted August 5, 2003 Veteran Share Posted August 5, 2003 :laugh: you have to pay for OE to access webmail? that's stupid :crazy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pimpshiznid Posted August 5, 2003 Share Posted August 5, 2003 No, you have to pay Yahoo in order to use OE to open the emails... There are some programs that still get around it, but I can't for the life of me remember what the names of them were. SOmething like pop yahoo or Yahoo pop or something....
