We were discussing it in the office today,
Is it time for telecom to bring its email services back in-house rather than outsourcing it?
There have been ongoing issues with yahoo mail for a number of years - not just for telecom customers.
I am not an expert on hacking (dyslexics dont make good programmers) but as I understand, the vunerability in the yahoo webmail service has been around for a number of months, and it appears yahoo hadnt fixed the issue on webmail.xtra.co.nz
Among other things - random / arbitrary disabled pop3 access, mailbox / account migration restrictions, etc
Personally I think it might be time to go back in-house, or at least give a flirtatious wink to the gmail wholesale sales people, or perhaps go as far as showing them some leg too.
What do you guys think?
