As someone who had to open a special account just for acom (I can receive emails from acom, just not the automated ones), I all in favor of this suggestion.
I don't care how far down the to-do list it has to go, it would be nice to have it on the list.
Because trying to teach my 89 year old aunt (who lives on the other side of the country) how to set up a yahoo email account (when she already has a perfectly good email account with another service provider) isn't my idea of a fun time. :D
