The most noticeable features of yahoo mail
1. The Most Noticeable Features of Yahoo Mail
Yahoo has been one of the main rivals of Gmail and Hotmail for years, and many internet
users are curious about what differs these email services one from another. Indeed, the
companies are almost identical in some aspects, yet they differ in 90% of the other features of
theirs.
The opportunity to attach files directly from Dropbox is a clear edge of Hotmail
Regarding Yahoo, when one sign up Yahoo, one could notice immediately its design, made
up in fairly specific colors, and interface, full of various images, menus and advertisements. Of
course, the large number of ads is perhaps the most annoying part in using Yahoo. Without any
doubt, Yahoo deserves a particular credit for its usability, since you get used how to use it in a
matter of minutes, not even days. Separating the email into sections – such as “today”,
“yesterday”, “last month”, and so on” – is definitely a good idea, as well.
2. Concerning the tools of Yahoo, it allows you to add files up to 25 MB into your letters. At
the same time, however, you are able to link Yahoo to your Dropbox account and send files
directly from Dropbox (which can be as heavy as 150 MB). The feature that many users would
find incredibly useful is the one that allows you to write an email letter while other letters in the
other window. Amateurs of beautiful emails with variations of fonts may find a slight drawback
that Yahoo does not allow to edit its font, yet that lapse is not that much important.
Compared to Hotmail and even Gmail, Yahoo is dealing great with spam and other
unwanted messages. All the suspicious letters you receive will be sent to the spam folder
immediately (by the way, you can set the time between cleaning the spam folder). What can
surprise you more about the security of Yahoo is the unconditional necessity to provide your
phone number for the registration. Otherwise, you will not simply be registered.
After all, it is hard to say that the quality of Yahoo support is at a brilliant level, yet it
deserves the mark not less than “decent.” Apart from the fact that Yahoo provides users with a
comprehensive manual and FAQ, the customer service of the company works quite well and
succeeds to deal with requests swiftly, what helps you create account on Yahoo.
Indeed, Yahoo is not the ideal email service, but it has a number of clear, distinctive edges
that make this email service fairly unique.
