coolrajiv 1 Report post Posted May 16, 2007 (edited) Look what's coming... The storage meter is going bye-bye. After 10 years of Yahoo! Mail, it just keeps getting better. Free unlimited storage Send and receive to your heart's content without dropping a penny. More of what you love Enjoy limitless storage space for photos, attachments, messages, and more. Less to throw out No need to fret about keeping your inbox under the storage limit. Edited May 16, 2007 by coolrajiv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ani_meher 42 Report post Posted May 16, 2007 good for yahoo. but if this step was taken just when gmail was about to enter, there'd be still many ppl hanging on with yahoo. i have dropped yahoo a long time ago. specially considering that it was not long ago that yahoo was offering only 6mb, n pathetic hotmail offering a whooping 2mb(!) storage, the unlimited storage thing feels great.

raccoon 53 Report post Posted May 16, 2007 Yahoo has other issues too ...v often its quite slow. Also picture thumbnails are damn small ...and to view you have to download each one seperately! Pathetic!! And its cluttered with too many graphic ads, etc, compared to gmail. I gave it up long ago ...just use the id for Yahoo messenger. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

coolrajiv 1 Report post Posted May 23, 2007 Also, Yahoo's spam guard is pathetic Hi, Dont agree with you dude i think Hotmail & Gmail has the most pathetic spam guard .... Yahoo spam guard is very nice i hardly get spam mails in Yahoo where as in Hotmail and Gmail i daily get around 15 spam mails... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raccoon 53 Report post Posted May 23, 2007 I dont agree either. I get tons of spam on my yahoo a/c (which I'v almost stopped using since I got a gmail id)... but 99% of that spam goes in the Junk folder! So its quite good. And in my experience even Google's spam filter is about as good. Hotmail is the worst! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vishal Gupta 4 Report post Posted May 23, 2007 In most cases, getting SPAM mails depends upon where u hv given ur which e-mail address? Suppose u gave ur yahoo! mail address at P0rn site, then what kind of mails u expect in ur inbox? I never get any Spam mail in my Hotmail account but get a few Spam mails (2 or 3 daily) in Yahoo! account coz I use my Y! account for online registrations, like forum registrations, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have never given my mail id for anything of the sort! Even then all my mail accounts get tons of spam. But like I said, Both Yahoo and Gmail do a pretty good job of filtering it all out. For my POP3 accounts, I use MailWasher. Hotmail, inspite of setting the sensitivity to max lets in all kind of junk. Hotmail is pathetic... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sadikk 301 Report post Posted May 25, 2007 Just launched! Increased attachment limit-- 20 MB! Now you can start sharing more of those home videos, large presentations and files you just can't seem to get smaller. We have doubled the allowable attachment size to 20 MB to make your Gmail space even more useful. lol @ yahoo and rediff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To add more, remove addresses until there are fewer than 500 blocked senders. Haha now what else u have to say Hotmail can only block 500 after that u r at the mercy of SPAMMMMMMMMMMMMMM Stop praising Hotmail now...... Yahoo is the best Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi, Gmail is fast agreed but Yahoomail is not too behind in terms of speed .... Hotmail is the slowest in terms of speed Gmail spam protection is good atleast my junk mails r going straight into spam .... yahoo spam protection is awesome never do i get spam in my inbox.......... Hotmail junk mail settings is poor to say the least ..... daily i get double digit spam mails Yahoo has this pic problem agreed but i dont find it annoying they give a small pic preview in the mail .... ok with me. I still feel yahoo is much better than Hotmail... & par with Gmail.. Speaking of spam filter we have forgotten abt our very own desi mail .... thats Rediffmail ... even rediffmail is far better than Hotmail....... and it was the first email service provider to offer unlimited storage... So my vote of confidence is with Yahoomail, Gmail and Rediffmail..... Edited May 29, 2007 by coolrajiv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
