Yahoo Mail! - Are you f'n kidding me?

[Slow Play Ray]

So I email that link of the rabbit humping the cat to my girlfriend from my Yahoo account, hit send, and a "character string verification" pops up - you know, like the ones when you sign up for an email or buy tickets from Ticketmaster. Of course the characters are all f'd up, and I thought the "e" was an "o" and it took me two tries to send the email.

So now you apparently have to do one of these EVERY TIME you send a Yahoo email. I did a couple experiments - with and without links, with and without subjects, even replying to an email from my inbox, and I had to do one of these for each email sent "to help fight spam."

I can't believe how stupid this is. Guess it's finally time to send out that "please use my gmail address for all further correspondence" email.

F'n Yahoo.
