Slide 1 of 14
Yahoo Mail Beta
Yahoo Mail Beta reveals an extreme makeover, with a new interface that mimics popular desktop e-mail clients such as Microsoft Outlook. The welcome changes are more than skin-deep; reading, sending, and organizing e-mail messages are faster and more intuitive in this redesign. The new AJAX-driven service uses the core technologies of Oddpost, an e-mail client swallowed by Yahoo last year. Right now, the Yahoo Mail Beta service is available to a limited number of testers.
