Yahoo to overhaul web mail

by admin on June 29th, 2005

Yahoo announced Tuesday that it plans to begin testing a massive overhaul of its web-mail service so it looks and behaves like a desktop-client application, such as Outlook.

The beta version of Yahoo Mail would include features like drag and drop email organization and message preview, but still operate out of a web browser. The new version would support Mozilla Foundation’s Firefox, Microsoft Corp.’s Internet Explorer and other browsers.

The new Yahoo Mail incorporates technology from web-mail provider Oddpost, which was acquired by Yahoo in July 2004.

I might just have to consider going back to using my long abondoned Yahoo! mail accounts, and this is not before time.
