amrinders87 Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Here is some more info about this from BetaNews Yahoo on Tuesday began a limited beta test of a new Web mail system, which includes a redesigned interface that mirrors desktop-based clients like Microsoft Outlook. Drag and drop features are supported through DHTML, and a new search engine brings added support for attachments.Yahoo said in June it was planning to launch a new version of Yahoo! Mail that would feature an instant preview pane. Many of the changes in the beta were taken from the company's acquisition of Oddpost last year. Users who dislike the new version will be given an option to switch back to the traditional interface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mail users' in the coming 1-2 months and eventually be rolled out to all Yahoo! Mail users in the coming 6 months. (Or so I was told) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AQUaDeX Posted September 14, 2005 Author Share Posted September 14, 2005 Thread updates with lots of new screenshot goodies, if you want to know anything more feel free to ask. And no it doesn't work with Oprah, it gives you a page complaining browser not supported when you use Oprah to access the beta and offer you to use the old interface or log out.

AQUaDeX Posted September 14, 2005 Author Share Posted September 14, 2005 (edited) welcome to AIM Mail...*cough*...i mean Yahoo Mail. 586525361[/snapback] To give them credit Yahoo started this project more than 10 months ago, while AOL started theirs a little more than 5 months... How can I become a Beta tester for Yahoo mail? 586525959[/snapback] You will be able to, eventually most active Yahoo! Mail users (people got an account and actually use it) will be switched to the new interface to test it, but patience is gold my friend, so if you don't already have Yahoo! Mail, sign up for one and begin to use it :yes: SWEET!that looks soooo sick man!? but.. WHAT THE HECK?? microsoft.. get your ass in gear, and start putting your foot down. hotmail is now behind in the times.. by space by design by compatability with firefox, opera.. dear god! microsoft better be coming out with a sweet new hotmail, with tuns of space soon... hotmail is losing this race... 586525976[/snapback] Microsoft is coming out with a new Hotmail, except it's neither looking sweet or has tons of space... So I think Microsoft is going to disappoint you this time Anyway this new system is still quite buggy, I already find 30+ problems with it that needs to be fixed, so there's still some time to go:pinch:h: Edited September 14, 2005 by AquaDex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
