They have just informed me "
Regarding your question about whether we should be reducing the price of our packages; Vodafone market and sell fixed broadband and mobile connectivity. Email is not part of our core offering. However, we are entitled to withdraw a service if we provide adequate notice to do so, and this is covered in the terms that govern our agreement.
Vodafone have opted to continue to service our email base with auto-forwarding so there is no need for customers to proactively advise their contacts of their new address - they just won't be accessing their email through our older inbox anymore.
In light of the above, we are not moving to reduce monthly charges based on the changes to our email service.

It's interesting to note that emails from Vodafone staff are hilited in Thunderbird as Possible Scams!!!!
