not sure if the workarounds people used still work or not... i personally used gmail before i got the droid so my e-mail was all good.

Yahoo mail on the Droid is mediocre at best. You can still get you emails using the imap workaround without paying, but you will get multiple copies of your emails, and if you have two accounts they will get confused. I'm trying K-9 with my yahoo accounts right now and that seems to be a little better, although it clearly states that they will not work properly.

no doubles, but the synch is a bit slow, thats about it.

I noticed that the spec sheet for 2.1 that was on Motorolas site for a few hours said that Yahoo email support was included. At least I THINK I remember seeing it.
