Pros: A major bang for the buck in features, bulk mail filter, reliable
Cons: Some spam trickles through here and there
Summary: Over the last month or so, after using my AT&T email account for all my email concerns, I began to look for a new web-based email account. You see, my Worldnet email account was slow on occasion, and sometimes to the point that I couldn't sent my ... read more

Pros: Almost everything
Cons: Strict limit on filters
Summary: Yahoo mail isn't quite perfect. But I must emphasize that "quite". It's very close. Yahoo is free. Its spam filter actually works, though it's still disconcerting to see spam pile up in the spam folder. I don't have data storage limits. My old ... read more

Pros: free, 1GB storage, handles multiple attachments, rock solid
Cons: lots of interface issues, difference in interface from OS to OS and browser to browser
Summary: I've never been a big fan of web mail. In the early days they were so primitive in terms of both functionality and interface, had such meager size limits, and lost mail like it was going out of style. Their only benefits were the ability to get mail from ... read more

Cons: Sometimes Yahoo can be slow, speed varies with ISP.
Summary: A long time ago, I used to have four email accounts because I wanted desperately to avoid unwanted spammers. After a few months, I felt that this was completely confusing and an utter waste of time so I decided to settle with Yahoo Mail. A few friends of ... read more

Pros: Get email ANYWHERE you can get access to an Internet connection
Cons: Limited 6Gb of free space, then strange staggered pricing structure
Summary: I live by Yahoo! Email. The reason I say that is that I have a desktop computer with Pegasus Mail as my primary mail client, but I am on my laptop almost 100% of the time. Since I only want to permanently store my email on one computer, I use Yahoo! Mail ... read more

Pros: Still good, for the most part.
Cons: Clear signs of deterioration, now and in the future.
Summary: So, after I get something (which I don't have) enlarged, will I still be making $5,000 a week, working at home?
Or, can I expect to earn more?
I'm troubled by Yahoo's troubles, which seem clearer every day.

Pros: Not many!!
Cons: Read On, they're all in there...
Summary: Yahoo used to be one of my favorite e-mail providers some times back. Free SMTP, free POP3, an excellent address book, usable filters and all the works. Then the corporate greed entered the picture.
Let's analyze Yahoo as an e-mail provider ... read more

Pros: Can access all of Yahoo from Yahoo Mail
Cons: Some people need more than 4 MB
Summary: I didn't want to use Yahoo Mail. I was just using it for my yahoo clubs (and later, yahoo groups), and the occasional correspondence.

Pros: Maintains itself, filter system, fair amount of storage
Cons: Haven't ever had any problems
Summary: For the longest time, I avoided getting a Yahoo! Mail account because I already had another free email address and several paid email accounts. I gave in at last and made a Yahoo account when I started using the Yahoo Auctions site. At first I continued ... read more
