Ok, everyone-- time to start whining about how Yahoo (a proven email 
address reseller) is going to be harvesting your 100 mb of mail for 
profiling.... ?

(By the way, the Googlewatch company-- they run a database called 
Namebase and have been very annoyed for years that Google doesn't deep 
index them... )
