The Messenger is probably validating you somehow. Personally, I have about
20 icons in my Tray already, and I don't need what 17 of them do except
maybe once a year. Every time one hits a web site these days you are asked
to fill in a form and suddenly a plug-in or something is stuck into your
Tray. Drives me nuts.

Subject:	[motm] This Yahoo thing

I don't understand this at all.  I didn't have to do anything.  I can still
access the stuff from my regular mail account.  I do have the Yahoo
Messenger (which is wonderful BTW).  So, I had a Yahoo ID already.  When my
ISP mail server went down I hopped over to Yahoo and had e-mail set up in 5
minutes by entering my existing password.  When I tried to post to the motm
list it would not let me.  But, a link came up that absolutely held my had
through the process and had me posting in about 5 minutes.

My problem is now that I don't need the mail account any more I cannot
figure out how to close it.
