I had @home and what you need to do is this:
The email NAME is the SAME as before but change the address after the @ to
@attbi.com for example (username)@attbi.com Then it should work.

That might be one possibility however, there were multiple ISPs who
subscribed to the @home service and so their customers would have
different new names. Granted, ATT was the largest @home client, but
they weren't the only one. My provider was also a subscriber and so
my @home name will change to @rogers. Also, I believe the bankruptcy
judge has allowed @home to operate for a while longer... till February
I've been told by Rogers. So the @home address you have may start
working again. Keep trying.

Not all @home addresses are out of business right now. AT&T @home service is,
though, as well as several smaller companies.

@ home is not out of business. They belong to the company Rogers. They are
in a transition right now. Try changing your email address to @rogers.com
instead of @home.com. But I cannot guarantee you can reach them coz they
are pretty screw up right now. Some are transited to the new email address
but some are not.

Actually, specifically, Excite@Home is what is out of business.

The company that filed for bankruptcy is excite @ home. They are now out of
business. Some parts of the company were purchased by AT&T Broadband
Internet (attbi) and some were purchased by Rogers. So some addresses will
be @attbi.com like mine, and some will be @rogers.com.

And some won't change at all. Cox communications and others are remaining
@home until February.
We are Comcast and ours is the same.

Karleen--

The best way is to rely on the owner of the address to notify us of their
new email address. Just like we do anytime anyone switches providers. :-D

That will only work for people who had @home through ATT. I think
that's about a 12th of the people who had @home.

Comcast negotiated a deal for a few months, they're going to pay a lot
more to @home for those months, while they try to find a new cable
supplier. So your edress will probably change eventually.

Comcast is planning on having their own independent network up and running in
February. That probably means May in reality <g>, so I anticipate 2 email
address changes in the coming year, at least. But, we only use our AOL
addresses mostly.

And some are switching/buying .......i dont know what all...

I have Cox cable who has an agreement with the court that they will
continue to provide us with excite at home until the switch is finished.

Cox Cable will own ours.
