At least 20 of my contacts, maybe more, have given up on Yahoo and found other email providers. Yahoo got rid of groups, has gotten slower, covers the screen with ads, wants me to pay to go ad free and doesn't like my ad blockers - even the YouTube ones, and is now warning me that, as of January 1, there will be no automatic forwarding to any other email provider unless I pay for it. But, there is a good solution. I'LL SELECT FROM SEVERAL ALTERNATE PROVIDERS AND SOMETIME BETWEEN NOW AND JANUARY 1, I'LL CHANGE, To be truthful, I think AOL is looking for an excuse to get rid of Yahoo mail. as they're losing users daily.
