New Yahoo Mail Beta Now Live

yahoo mail betaThe much hyped new Yahoo Mail Beta is now available for public use. Seen very much as an attempt by Yahoo to play catch-up on Google’s GMail service the new Yahoo beta boasts a set of new features that bring their mail service rather more up to date with recent developments in email account services, though I still doubt that it will be considered a threat by Google.

The feature set being touted is:

  • A new reading pane – read messages without leaving your inbox
  • Tabbed messages – open multiple messages at once
  • Full drag & drop organisational structure
  • Enhanced searching
  • 1GB of storage
  • Enhanced anti-spam and anti-virus features
  • Auto check for new messages
  • New keyboard shortcuts
  • Integrated RSS feeds
  • Improved roaming access features

You can catch up on all the new and enhanced features via this page.

If you do try this beta, please do let us know what you think, and how you think it measures up to GMail.
