Gmail is the best web-based email ever, regardless of how Yahoo claims the Ymail is good in this and that.

There is no need to compare Gmail to Ymail because Ymail is not even up to the par.

Gmail user forever,
Matt

Yahoo Mail (beta?)–Great interface as always, but more attachment size is needed. 10MB is just not enough, it’s a complete joke. Also, they need to get rid of that premium service crap. Paying for 20MB of attachment space among other things? Get real. Overal: great look and product, but rather minimal service.

GMail–interface totally sucks and is asolutley crappy. 20MB of attachment size is great. Plus all those dang labels really throws you off…it’s way too clunky and confusing. And why not just offer unlimited storage space. Yahoo and AOL/AIM do it, why not Google? Overall: crappy look and interface, but pretty generous service.

AOL/AIM Mail–pretty nice interface, but not as good as Yahoo’s. 16MB of attachment space is good (although it seemed to have increased mysteriously for me). Overall: nice product and service, but still has alot of catching up to do or would fare great with a merger with one of the above mentioned.

[...] Friday, September 16th, 2005 in Yahoo The former Oddpost team and many people on the Yahoo Mail team have been working overtime to launch the new Yahoo Mail to public beta users this week. It’s very exciting to see such a high quality product launch to one of the biggest audiences on the web. You can sign up to try it here (not sure how long it will take to get an invite). In the meantime, there are lots of good reviews popping up. One of my favorites so far is by Paul Kedrosky (who seems quite unimpeachable when it comes to product opinions – make sure you click through, he’s got one of the best review opening lines I’ve seen in a while).

Yahoo lovers: compare Yahoo and Google’s Calendars, Google’s is much better and doesn’t look so clunky. Also with google, I can see conversations combined and also if you click on a contact it shows all the mail from that address right under it. Google makes it easy to organize my mail and now that I can delete mail it’s even better. One of my favorite features in gmail is how when you press spell check it highlights misspelled words and you can click on the word for suggestions, just like microsoft word. Also applying multiple lables is good. Yahoo has a much better home page, but as far as mail goes, google still looks down on the yahoo beta.

Although yahoo’s new mail system is nice, it just doesn’t have the personalized feel that gmail gives me. I can have pictures of the people that I am writing emails to, and it just feels better. But everyone has their own preference. At least we can all agree on one thing… Hotmail sucks.

Yahoo bought oddpost. so the new yahoo is based off of outpost, but upgrated. It looks nice. I wonder if google will “respond”.

have been using yahoo ever since and am not using the beta for 2 months now. at the same time i just started using gmail for a month now. yahoomail really looks great and i love that i have 2 GB but the current problem is it’s too slow and have some problems loading some pages or images (well i guess because its still in the beta stage), on the otherhand, gmail doesnt look good but i have to say im starting to love gmail and have been using it now more often than yahoo. the replies bundled in 1 email is really very useful for me as well as the clean and uncluterred interface.

Hey, Ernesto, your an idiot. You have probably never used Yahoo in your life. Plus it’s more than just a search engine and a free web based mail host. It’s more than google will ever be. So what if it doesn’t provide 2gb storage…do you even use all of that?!! If you do, you are even dumber.
