Email - Yahoo v MSN
by james225 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6KR0Y)
I have been using Gmail [usually on the online GUI] for many years and whilst trying to delete some older msgs i somehow managed to corrupt the All Mail folder. I could send [but not saved] and could not receive.
I have been irritated by their 'pop up window' for replying to emails so decided to have a change and chose yahoo. To my horror i found that yahoo and MSN [hotmail, live and outlook] DO NOT talk to each other. I know this because a friend uses 'live and when his emails bounced back i opened my own outlook account to check.
Is this common knowledge that i don't know?
I recall about 25 years ago they would sometimes block each other but i'd have thought now they'd have grown up a little.
