Hope there aren't a lot of pple using Amexmail.com's service (too bad I am {g}). I opened my mailbox today to find a VERY disturbing message:

AmExMail will be discontinuing service as of April 30, 2002. To keep your current email account and messages with USA.NET (blah@usa.net) you must purchase service by April 30, 2002. USA.NET is offering current AmExMail users an introductory rate of $29.99 for a year of service. Subscribe today!! You only have 32 day(s) remaining to continue using this service!

If you have any questions regarding your online services with American Express, please call (800) AXP-1234.

And ironically their main landing page still has the following messages:

It's Free — There is no charge for your email address or any of the AmExMail services

It's Permanent — Your AmExMail address stays with you even if you switch ISPs, change jobs, or move

Oh well, time to change mail providers...
