I use a little program called PopPeeper to monitor a number of different email accounts. Much easier than using the web interface. Also when I use the web interface I usually use a separate browser. I run Opera, K-meleon and Firefox so actually including the Internet Elephant I could have four accounts open if I had them and needed them. Another idea for the problem is you may have checked the box to keep you logged in for 2 weeks. When you want to sign in, go to the login site, enter the account and password and enter. If it shows the other name, usually it will have a link underneath something like "Not you?" or something like that to give you the chance to change the login name. When you want to switch, log out and then go back to the main page I linked above. See if that works any better for you. Good luck!

scottyman, You probably won't be able to view the picture of the cake itself on the link above... I just posted the link so that debby could see "WHO" posted the original post. Hopefully the below link will work for you if you want to see a picture of the cake. Here is a link that might be useful: Picture of cake

Frontier so far is pretty funny & frustrating too to me. I now have my original Verizon email which is actually older mike@gte.net forwards to mail.AOL.com which forwards to mike@hotmail.com . I did get some kind of customer access code number mailed to my Hotmail which was on the account for Verizon as contact email. I have no idea what to do with that yet. But I go to Frontier and I don't seem to have an account yet.. to pay my bill online... keeps sending me around in circles. I imagine they are kind of busy right now. I can see how they have probably messed up big time... my Verizon mail all forwarded to Hotmail... when they changed me to mail.aol.com... they quit forwarding it to Hotmail and had it all going to AOL. If I hadn't realized what happened .. I'd be missing and wondering where some very important mail was. I'd almost suspect Verizon will have their FIOS in my neighborhood in coming months and be offering FIOS packages at lesser prices than Frontier sells the services it bought from verizon. Kind of like using the money they sold me to frontier for, to string fiber to my neighborhood. Lots of this area already has been slowly getting the FIOS strung around.

"How can you tell if a virtual mobile carrier is as good as their parent?" mtvhike, virtual mobile carriers are neither good nor bad. They sell phones and usage plans and have others provide the signal and the connection. Good or bad: price only. They do nothing else. Two phones on the same system at the same location with different signal strengths? The only difference is the phone hardware. The same could happen with two Verizon sourced (in this example) phones. Take two copies of the same model from the same source, their performances can easily be different when side by side. Keep in mind, the low priced virtual companies like Tracfone tend to offer mostly lower quality phone models and that alone can account for lower quality connections on a major network. crafty, forget the coverage maps other than, again, looking at them from 5000 feet, not with a microscope. I have Verizon, the coverage is awesome and reliable (and has been for a long time, I'm a customer of it and its local predecessors for >30 years) but it can vary from block to block and structure to structure. Why can plans from Tracfone et al be cheaper than the name brand? It's a form of what's called marginal pricing. The big guys need to charge enough with their main business to pay to build and maintain their infrastructure and the anticipated capacity plus a factor for wiggle room. That leaves extra capacity that would go otherwise unused. Their cost for carrying the added traffic sold the the virtual carriers is zero so any revenue is better than none. Ever buy a same day ticket for a Broadway play from the booth on Times Square in NY? Or sign up to be notified for a last minute cruise opening? There are lots of examples of heavily discounted prices when what's being sold would be otherwise unused. In the Broadway case, getting $25 for an unsold $125 seat is better than getting $0.
