We talked the other day about the closure of Tripod (Web hosting service by Lycos). Well, today we talk about the closure of another one of their services, the e-mail service Lycos mail.

In fact both closures were announced by Lycos simultaneously, and Lycos mail will close its doors on 15th February. In an e-mail, users are warned about the need to back up their accounts before that day and not to use their e-mail addresses anymore.

This service was much less used than Tripod but it was maybe more important for users.
