PTC/GPT sites - don't take Yahoo?

I have been surfing some PTC sites and have noticed that some say they don't take AOL which is common, but now I have been seeing some say they don't take YAHOO emails addresses anymore. Of course they don't say why they don't accept Yahoo addys anymore... so... anyone know why a PTC or GPT site wouldn't take Yahoo? I could understand the gmail ones with the dot making one phrase a few hundred phrases, depending on where you place the dot and knowing that addy belongs to the same person, but yahoo doesn't do that.. at least that I know of... so why wouldn't they take Yahoo addresses?

Because I think there is limit on yahoo emails on space. When the email address has used all of the space then the sent e-mails will bounce back to the senders causing database problems on their websites. Also, I think aol marks everything as spam and you never get the mails. Just get a g-mail account it is free and easy.

I did, but why doesn't Gmail bounce? Not that it matters, but just wondering!

No, not all. I have been using g-mail for years for gpt to programs just check your spam folder to make sure that you are getting the mails you want. As a matter of fact I use G-mail to import e-mails from all of the other email addresses I have. G-mail gives you unlimited space so it never bounces.

I think it's that the emails sent to yahoo addresses bounce back. You could just switch to a different free email service.
