That might also happen with Gmail or Outlook. It's happening to Yahoo.

Kirk, 06 Oct 2017I hope they'd hold a funeral, get some snacks and drinks out at least...hahahahahaha.
Unfortunately, I have never used it. Back in the days Yahoo Messenger used to be the creme dela creme competing with South Africa's Mxit. Then Gchat showed up and Nimbuzz that enabled used to have all accounts in one place. Then came 2GO from South Africa again. Having a java phone was the in thing men.
