There are some really good reasons to keep your mail and other important stuff for Yahoo on your computer, besides a hacker compromising your account.
What if for some reason Yahoo just ‘suspends’ your email account?
Think it couldn’t happen to you? Maybe you should read this article, Yahoo Shuts Down Decade-Old-Email Account, Shrugs. Everything this guy had is lost forever, because Yahoo just doesn’t provide any way to get it back. Nightmare for users.
If this user had hosted his business sites on a regular host that he could actually contact, he probably wouldn’t have lost them.
Or what if Yahoo decides for any reason your account is ‘not active’ and just removes it!
They are going to close inactive accounts, but are these accounts really inactive?
I hope that Yahoo doesn’t close my seldom used account, even though I use my Yahoo Groups everyday.
