« Starting the migration to me.com | Main | Apple's Joswiak dishes on missing features »

Dear Yahoo! If anyone is left there, please fix it so your system accepts @me.com addresses

This is kinda sad -- mentioned it yesterday here, still broken. Try logging into your yahoo account. Try setting up and validating a @me.com address onto your account, so you can, say, use it with yahoo groups as your subscribed address. Yahoo tells you foo _at_ me.com isn't a valid email address. which until a couple of weeks ago was correct. I'm amazed Apple hasn't beating the crap out of someone over there over this, or maybe there's nobody left that can fix this and cares? (hey, people at Apple who read this, shouldn't someone be 'encouraging' Yahoo! to get this taken care of?) Having this broken last week as me.com was fully rolling out -- would have been annoying but somewhat understandable. That it's still broken now? But Yahoo! stopped being able to execute well a while back, no? At this point, I'm going to be curious how long this stays broken.

Doesn't @mac.com work ? I'm seeing mail to my @me address in my @mac.com mailbox.

Yahoo is still around?

@me.com requires Apple.

Yahoo hates Apple products.

Have you seen Y!Messenger for Mac? Or tried to use half their services on Macs?

Everyone there with any amount of clue is busy figuring out how to arrange a "material change of job function" in a couple weeks so they can take their severance when Icahn takes over, cut them some slack. ;-)
