Hi,

You can tell yahoo groups to send to another account. I never use my yahoo account. I just have them goto my bellevue.bat email addi.

I have a yahoo account and 99.999 percent of the email I get there is "junk"
and if it wasn't for yahoo groups and such, I would probably just close my
yahoo id/account.

I see no disadvantages to using Gmail as a conventional email
account and do find it advantageous that messages are retained on
google for subsequent searching.

There is however one major disadvantage to a gmail account.  The
attachment size limit is something like 3 megs.  Conversely,
yahoo's attachment size limit is I think 10 megs.

I disagree. I use the pop feature of gmail and all the messages that I've downloaded are still on gmail, should I ever need to go there and find something. This means I can still search and all that you mentioned and still use the more accessible way of getting my mail via a pop client like Outlook.

Yes, it can but using POP this way kinda defeats the purposes of
having
a gmail account.  gmail offers all kinds of labeling and search
capabilities that triditional POP mail clients just can't do.
