Yahoo! Now Offering YMail.com and RocketMail.com Addresses

Yahoo! Now Offering @YMail and @RocketMail E-Mail AddressesYahoo! Mail has been around a long time. As a consequence, getting yourself an e-mail address that isn't a non-sequitur followed by 17 digits (we hear that H0r53D1aper374689@Yahoo.com is still available!) is darn near impossible.

So to better serve its customers, Yahoo! is opening up two new domains for registering e-mails: @YMail.com and @RocketMail.com. Rocket Mail was actually snapped up by Yahoo! back in 1997 as the basis for Yahoo!'s free e-mail offering, but registration of new Rocket Mail addresses has been closed ever since.

You probably still wont be able to get JoeSmith@RocketMail.com or YMail.com, but you just might be able to squeeze a Smith in there somewhere. [Source: USA Today]
