You know the pop address for Yahoo?

edit: pop.mail.yahoo.com

Yeah, I believe you can do it, but i can't remember my yahoo login

Open telnet (run>telnet), then type:

o pop.mail.yahoo.com 110 and hit enter.

then enter:

USER followed by your password and hit enter.

then:

PASS followed by your pass and hit enter.

Then:

STAT and enter

This should show the number of mails you have unread and the size of each mail. To read one of the mails, type:

RETR followed by the number of the mail, and hit enter.

To delete a mail, type:

DELE followed by the number.

To end the session, type QUIT

Yeah, I know. I used to know how to do it on Freeserve, but I've only just re-learned how to do it :)

edit: btw, the topic was intended to be tongue-in-cheek :lol:
