中國雅虎郵箱今日關閉 Chinese Yahoo Mail Closes Today

On April 18th, 2013, ChineseYahoo announces a notice to the users that it begins to stop serve and deletedata from today on, suggesting the users transfer their data. The announcement atthat time says, users should be registered in time and bound new Ali cloudemail mailbox, because bounding Ali cloud mailbox can automatically save thehistory e-mail of Chinese Yahoo and take the place of receiving the mails sentto Chinese Yahoo Mail until December 31, 2014. Chinese Yahoo also says that theywould not force users to register Ali cloud mailbox. Users can freely choose tomove the messages in the mailbox to the America Yahoo Mail or any other electronicmailbox. From now on, all the mails in Chinese Yahoo Mail and related accountsettings will be deleted and cannot be recovered. In fact, Chinese Yahoo Mail isonly the epitome of Chinese "Yahoo!" brand change. According to thepart of share repurchase program signed last year between Alibaba and Yahoo, Alibabagroup received at least four years’ operating rights to run China Yahoo underthe brand of Yahoo.

2013年4月18日，中國雅虎向用戶發佈通知稱，將於今天停止服務並刪除數據，建議用戶及時遷移數據。當時的公告稱，用戶應該及時註冊並綁定新的阿里雲郵箱，綁定的阿里雲郵箱可以自動保存用戶中國雅虎郵箱中的歷史郵件，並代收取發往原中國雅虎郵箱的郵件直至2014年12月31日。中國雅虎方面也表示，不會強制用戶註冊阿里雲郵箱，用戶也可以自由選擇將郵箱中的郵件遷至美國雅虎郵箱或任何其他第三方電子郵箱。今日起，原中國雅虎郵箱中的所有郵件和相關的賬戶設置都將被刪除且無法恢復。事實上，中國雅虎郵箱只是中國“雅虎”品牌易手的縮影。按照阿里巴巴和美國雅虎去年簽署股權回購計劃的一部分，阿里巴巴集團獲得了至少繼續以“雅虎”品牌運營“中國雅虎”四年的運營權。

However, before the term expires of fouryears, Alibaba will gradually return the brand of Yahoo Mail back, and the mailcould be just the first step. There is message saying that the portal business journalistsof Chinese Yahoo are transferring position in the internal group.

不過，在四年期限到期前，阿里巴巴將逐步歸還雅虎品牌，郵箱可能只是第一步。有消息稱，中國雅虎門戶業務的採編人員也在進行阿里集團內部轉崗。
