One of the best free Email Servers out there is Yahoo. Long before the others Yahoo provided features that others are only now calling 'new'. Recently they have gone all out by giving 100MB to account holders! What is your review?
I like Yahoo email.
There are a lot of good things going for it, and a few annoyances.
The good:
I am thrilled that Yahoo has switched to 100MB accounts with 10MB attachments. Those were the 2 limitations that I did not like before. I love my Yahoo mail account because it is accessible anywhere, and I think the Spam filter is as good as any other. Now that I can send larger attachments, I wont even use my Outlook account with my ISP again. I can't stand Outlook and frankly it scares me because of all its bugs and holes. Kudos to Yahoo for going to 100MB accounts.
I love my Yahoo account, but I have not found the spam protection to be good. It is constantly filtering legitimate e-mail. It seems if anyone sends you a message at the same time they send it to all their other friends it gets identified as spam. I have turned off the spam filter for my account because of this. I don't get all that much spam anyway.
Whenever you get such legitimate mail, identify it as "not spam", and the spam protection will learn what types of things you want and don't want.
You are VERY lucky if you aren't getting much spam. I am probably getting about 100 unwanted emails per day, and mine is pretty light.
I get tons of Bulk Mail on Yahoo, but one thing I do like is that it automatically sends it to the junk folder. If it's somebody's actual e-mail address, whether you have it on your address list or not, goes to your inbox. That is, if it's a legitimate e-mail address. On MSN, I've had e-mails that come from addresses I have in my address book, and it still got sent to my junk folder.
