The sites are gone, the @f2s.com email accounts have not :)

Just logged into webmail, they seem to have got rid of the @yourdomain.f2s.com accounts, but you can still use the @f2s.com accounts at the moment, I just registered accountcontrol@f2s.com as you can still access your members area, I'm wondering if it will activate in the morning.

Indeed, my @f2s.com address still works, my @hagelandhc.f2s.com address doesn't...

Why did I decide to use @subdomain.f2s.com email addresses?

You can still create new ones though, I created accountcontrol@f2s.com yesterday, and it's activated now!

Yes, but it would have been good to have had @f2s.com email addresses from the beginning, then there wouldn't have been any changes.

is there any official announcement from f2s about stability of this service. is this mail accounts are "experimental" too!?!

I'm sure they're not going to let you keep those email account forever either, it's probably just temporary. I would NOT count on being able to keep them for long!

So far nothing is been deleted on the free f2s accounts. They are giving people time to retrieve their files and data and probably soon all users names will be deleted. People can still sign on for paid services and their free sites are reactivated.

I agree. It would be a utopia to believe that we will be able to keep these addresses for free... Even if they forgot about them, they'll discover it anyway some day. So I'd suggest using the opportunity to move to another address smoothly, while you still can.

They probably haven't forgotten about them, they're just figuring out a way to get rid of them. It was easy to delete the websites and emails (for subdomains), but it's less easy to delete the email addresses.
