Easy to use ; provides twice the storage space of Hotmail ; blocks bugs and viruses ; eliminates all but 5 percent of spam ; offers its own keyboard shortcuts

Charges you to retrieve mail with a desktop client such as Microsoft Outlook or Eudora ; video messaging suffers from audio/video synchronization problems ; no longer encrypts messages

Even though it now charges for services that were once free, the redesigned Yahoo Mail is still the best free Web e-mailer around.

No Opera or Safari support. Doesn't open directly to your inbox. No AIM chatting.

With the addition of SMS text messaging and support for Windows Live Messenger IM, Yahoo! Mail remains the webmail client to beat. Its tabs, preview panel, drag-and-drop, built-in RSS reader, and oodles of other little goodies-all within a clear and ...
