4/8     What's a good free e-mail provider? I don't want to use Gmail,
        Yahoo, Outlook, or any of those sites with features I never use that
        track my personal info and keep changing their interface. I want just
        simple e-mail without privacy issues or all the baggage these large,
        for-profit companies are adding. I might even be willing to pay.
        Recommendations?

8/29    There was once a CSUA web page which runs an SSH client for logging
        on to soda.  Does that page still exist?  Can someone remind me of the
        URL please?  Thx.
        \_ what do you mean? instruction on how to ssh into soda?
           \_ No I think he means the ssh applet, which, iirc, was an applet
              that implemented an ssh v1 client.  I think this page went away

8/16    Why does my Y! mail account always full of unfiltered spam
        mails (and they're obviously spams)? Why can't they do
        a better job like Google mail? Why does Y! mail charge
        for exporting email? Google mail doesn't do that.

reuters.com/newsArticle.jhtml?type=internetNews&storyID=5195988MORE SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - A "bug" in Google's test e-mail system, Gmail, temporarily gave some users one terabyte of free storage, 1000 times the one gigabyte the Web search company is currently offering to lure people away from rivals Yahoo Inc. A Google spokesman on Wednesday said the storage increase was the result of a "bug" and that the company was working to fix the glitch. He did not give additional details, but said Gmail, which is available through a limited test, currently offers one gigabyte of storage. One terabyte is roughly the equivalent of 16 days of continuously running DVD movies. Research) had begun offering one gigabyte of storage to paid users. Gmail is covering the cost of its free e-mail service by serving ads based on the content in messages, a move that has sparked sharp criticism from privacy advocates. Last week, Yahoo said it would soon increase storage for free users to 100 megabytes and give paying e-mail users "virtually unlimited" storage. Microsoft's MSN division, which operates the software company's Hotmail service, has not made any announcements regarding storage.
