Good to know that you back up all your files.. And I think from now on you can change your other accounts that uses lycos to other providers such as gmail or yahoo..

More power to your blog also

Yup, I am taking your advise seriously, actually I had already did some backup on the important mails that I have on my Lycos account after I read this post, and ever since I had my own domain and own email, my Lycos mail only served as a supplementary email such as when I forget passwords that had been signed up on under my Lycos mail.

This is a great heads up for other Lycos mail users that haven’t heard the story yet.

Thanks and more power!

Thanks for the clarification.. I have updated the post. But be careful if they did it in Europe they can do it elsewhere

Just a reminder

I just want to make a few corrections regarding the shutdown of Lycos Mail since I myself is still a Lycos Mail user, and it is still one of my main mails since most of my accounts which are scattered around the web are still under my Lycos Mail…

I panicked when I read this, and to my surprise not a single announcement email was sent to me… After a few searches, it was told that only the European Lycos was affected with this, hence other Lycos users should not worry.

I have blogged regarding this just now here if its ok >> http://www.ljdiaz.com/2009/01/30/lycos-mail-users-shutting-down/

Thanks! More power! I am an occasional Lurker/reader here in techathand.net

Want we can do from now is to make use of their system while it is free

I dont know about Yahoo Mail, but as far as I know Gmail will be their for a several years more. This past years has been great for google, they have constantly been improving their services and acquiring several companies to widen their market share in the tech industry. That is why, I dont see google’s gmail beeing revamped, even more so being removed in the years to come
