My ISP has outsourced its email to Yahoo! (I gather that a number of ISPs are outsourcing their email services because they are lazy cheap sons of b–oh, never mind). Until I figure out how to import my emails into a mail client such as Thunderbird–my personal favorite–I am stuck with using Yahoo!’s webmail interface, which is not only clunky, but which also includes advertisements disguised as emails in my inbox.

Which leads me to remark that . . . .

Despite what Yahoo! would have me believe when I delete an email exchange from my inbox, an exchange of emails is not a “conversation.”

It is, at worst, an annoying but necessary task. At best, it is a correspondence.

But it’s not, by any stretch of the imagination, a “conversation,” for Pete’s sake.

Furrfu.
