I was a little mystified why I missed the Yahoo!Xtra Bubble announcements apart from the mail disruption notice seen in this earlier post. A visit to a relations place in the weekend had me setting up her Bubble and I saw this in the in-box:
Her XtraMail was set to mark all spam with [SPAM] rather than delete it. It appears Xtra’s old spam filter picked it’s Yahoo!Xtra Bubble announcement up as Spam. Probably quite true but perhaps it explains why many didn’t know about the impending changes.
Sure enough, a look at my MailWasher history showed the Yahoo!Xtra Bubble announcement was deleted, tagged as spam, on 18/07/2007…
