Default [Big Screenshot] New Yahoo! Mail Beta... and you're invited.
Today when i logged into my account i got an invitation for Yahoo! Mail

beta.
I think it is good looks like an e-mail client,nice interface.


Here is a screenshot of the new interface



Quote:
Now You Can:
Easily organize messages

by dragging and dropping them into folders, trash, wherever.

Quickly scan messages

in the handy Reading Pane.

Multitask with ease

using tabs to switch between different messages.

Keep your email safe

with SpamGuard and Norton AntiVirus™.
But one thing I wasnt able to acess it using Opera as a browser.[First Bug]

Guys what do you think about this

H ave you got invitation ?

Default Yhaoo mail beta
i got the new yahoo mail beta testing invitation.....

it rocks surely but definately not better than gmail..

From a pentium 3 point of view it s**ks.....because-
1. It is damn slow - You hve to wait for6-7 seconds before something happens
2. Somehow it is making the other progrmas also slow. The whole windows as well as linux literally crawl.
3. A lot of ram is taken up it. (not for those with less than 256mb rm)
4. Takes a lot of internet usage (About 500kb just to load up its interface)
5. Has got a big banner image ad at the right ?(they have tried to copy gmail but have failed miserably)
6. The message reading screen is kind of small and u feel that u r reading in a small box

^^^ The Moderators cannot always catch these "small things"... So, as responsible members of the forum, it is our unwritten duty to both guide newcomers on the etiquette and rules, and help ensure that they are followed... Do note that there is a rule that you should try to continue a post where one exists instead of starting a new thread... See http://www.thinkdigit.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=13981 under heading "Multiple Posts"... And in this case, the thread is a current and ongoing one...

BTW, For those who are interested in getting in, go to the "Whats new" link near the top of the main screen after login - there is a link to get on the waiting list... and it appears to be only for yahoo.com mail account holders at the moment...

hmm..... don't know what was it....
I was on GAIM.... and i got a mail notification on it about an e-m,ail from a classmate... i opened it by clicking on GAIM's notification.... it opened in my browser firefox.... firefox gave me a security warning... about a DOMAIN NAME MISMATCH.... I allowed it... and it took me to a Yahoo! Mail page where it was saying:

"It's BETA! and you're invited".... I clicked on TRY IT and voila!!!.... My @ Yahoo.com mail is now Yahoo Mail BETA!!!

Hmm... I don't know how it happened... I just registered for BETA 2 weeks ago.... and I know Yahoo! takes few months to give out BETA...

Was it GAIM opening Yahoo! mails to some other Yahoo! Domain which is for BETA... ????

I'm surprisingly confused... but I got the BETA... tht's coolest thing!!!!

Anyone try it with GAIM version is 2.0.0BETA3....
