Embarq forces 750,000 of their customers to change their email addresses

While thousands of internet providers are giving away email addresses for free and allowing the users to keep them for life, Embarq is doing the opposite. Beginning in April Embarq will be forcing all of their users at earthlink.net to change their email address to embarqmail.com. They will allow their existing users to use their old email accounts until October at which time the cost of the email only plan from EarthLink will become $3.95/month.
