China's Yahoo Mail stop service to many Yahoo Mail users feel disappointed and dissatisfied, for these users, the bad future may just begin.
In 2007, Yahoo China announced the launch of "Unlimited capacity" free "lifetime Mailbox", the "Lifetime mailbox" integration of Yahoo albums, music boxes, music search and other practical functions, this irresponsible publicity has attracted a lot of Chinese users, October 30, 2009, China Yahoo closed the Yahoo space service to cancel the album function, but because many users failed to back up the photos in time, causing a lot of users dissatisfaction, and the closure of Yahoo's mailbox to the user caused more trouble than close the album is much more.
Most Internet services now require users to fill in their mailboxes, many sites even directly to the mailbox as the user's login account, in different sites, users modify the e-mail method is not the same, if the user's mailbox stopped service, then users forget the site password, you can not use e-mail to reset the password, So it's possible that you'll never be able to sign in to this site again.
Therefore, the use of Yahoo Mail to register the services of each website users, although the Yahoo Mail outage will not let those Internet service account immediately invalid, but will face the following two problems:
1, cannot receive each website to send the important mail, some mail notification may be very important, for example and the financial payment related mail notification.
2, unable to use the website password to retrieve the function, the user account is at any time may lose the state, the user needs to firmly remember each website's login password.
In order to solve these inconvenience, the user only way, can only login to each Internet service, find those with Yahoo email registered website account, one by one to modify e-mail account, this waste users a lot of time and energy.
So, network users have no way to have a truly "permanent" "Lifetime Mailbox" it. The answer is yes, it just needs to pay some fees.
How to have a "permanent" email address that does not stop service:
1, register a domain name, domain registrars as far as possible to choose foreign well-known registrars, you can see the major portal sites are used by the domain of which registrars;
2, register a Tencent domain name mailbox or netease domain name mailbox account number, these accounts are free to register, December 2012 ago Google Apps (gmail domain name mailbox) can also register for free, but now can't, can only pay to use;
3, according to different mailbox service providers, configure their own domain name MX records and other settings, so that it can work properly;
4, the use of this own domain name of the mailbox in other sites to register services.
In addition to the domain name mailbox, many domain registrars also provide their own mail services, those settings will be simple, but the usual domain name registrars to provide less mail space, can not meet user use, some domain name registrars such as GoDaddy support mail forwarding, you can set the domain name mail forwarding to another mailbox, such as Gmail, and then set up Gmail "use Gmail from other e-mail addresses to send mail," You can use Gmail to send and receive this domain name mailbox, this setting will be simpler than the domain name mailbox.
Using this method, as long as the user's domain name to remember the renewal, this email can be used all the time, cheap COM domain name renewals cost about 50 yuan a year.
In the event of the day Tencent mailbox or NetEase mailbox also closed, modify the domain name DNS records can be set up for other service providers, such as domain name registrars to provide their own mail services. In case the domain name registrar is also faced with a shutdown (usually very small), you can also migrate domain names to another domain name registrar, and will not cause the domain name mailbox can not be used. In addition, you can choose large domain name registrars such as GoDaddy, its close probability is very low.
