New "dot" addresses for Yahoo!

Ever dreamed of the perfect Yahoo! Mail address? One that mirrors your personality? Your passion? Your hair color? Or maybe just the name your mother gave you at birth?

Well, you’re in luck. Yahoo has just opened up new “dot” addresses to all Mail users. Now get an extra email address like stunt.racer@yahoo.com or poetry.stud@yahoo.com or whatever.youwant@yahoo.com. It’s absolutely free. Use it just as you would your primary address (which of course you can still use). To make things handy, even use one Inbox to send and receive messages to and from both addresses. But hurry, the good names are going fast!

Very cool. One limitation I found -- the second part of the name (after the "dot") has to have at least four characters.

Neat...though they had me use one of my profiles for it...I had that option or the option of deleting a profile...which I did not want to do. Cool though...thanks for the head's up. :)

The only reason they added this feature is because all the other names are being used up, this feature allowed ppl to a more compatible version to what they wanted for a name.
