I see...  So I just deleted the configs I had added to access their 
pop server directly.  So much for that exercise.  So they are either 
sending it to my regular mailbox, or into some sort of a black hole, 
I don't recall seeing any messages in this mailbox that came by way 
of yahoo, unless its buried someplace in the full header, which I 
don't normally display since I only run a 1600x1200 screen here.
It was however, I nice thought.  Webmail per sei, I have little or no 
use for.  Too much trouble to access it.  I never did get into it 
from mozilla last night, something about the password I guess I'll 
have to call them up and call them something again.
