Lycos Europe is rolling head over heels to shut down its services. Yesterday it shut down its email and Tripod in Europe, but that wasn’t the end of it as it pulled down shutters on Jubii as well. Jubii provided its users with integrated chat, text messaging, blogging, email, file-sharing and storage services. The homepage reads:
Dear User,
This service will remain available only until 15 February 2009. After this date, all accounts will be closed, and any stored content and access authorizations related to your e-mail account will be deleted in accordance with legal requirements. For this reason, we ask that you back up all important data from your Jubii e-mail account in the next few days and switch to another e-mail provider.
We regret this measure and would like to thank you for the trust you have placed in us.
Your Jubii Mail Team
For anyone looking for a quick and easy way to backup their Lycos email accounts (or Jubii, Tripod, Caramail and Multimania) we’ve setup a site to do this, here:
Lycosmailbackup.com
Good luck to all those Lycos users on the move!
