Say Goodbye to Facebook E-mail

Facebook announced Monday that it's getting rid of its @facebook.com e-mail service. E-mail service, you say? Yes, the social network actually had a service for e-mail addresses that users could get when they signed up -- not to be confused with Facebook Messages, Chat, or Messenger. Very few people actually used the service, according to the social network, hence, its retirement.

A Facebook spokesperson told CNET that the social network has started notifying people who use their @facebook.com e-mail accounts that the "feature is changing." Now, when someone sends an e-mail to a Facebook address, it will no longer go to Messages, but rather to people's primary e-mail address linked with the social network, like Gmail or Yahoo.
