Yahoo Mail Upgrade
 
Anyone using Yahoo Mail will undoubtably know that the service has been upgraded.

Who says you dont get anything for free? :D

The previous quota was ;

6mb Space/3mb Attachment

And there new quota ;

100mb Space/10mb attachments...and a new design.

In 2 years I dont think I've ever had any trouble with them!

Nice to see some companies care about there customers ! :)

Of course they care about their customers, and their customers are the advertisers. ;)
They just know they are under threat from GMail so had to do something to keep the company raking in the profits.

Fine by me! I'm well chuffed with it, don't have to delete messages every day now - am back down to the lovely 5% full level!

Well I've not been upgraded yet, but I'm glad they have, the 10mb attachment quota will come in handy :)

Nice one. Whats the settings so i can set it up in Outlook?

Think its the same settings but they upgrade your allowances.
I think the basic settings are:

Incoming mail server (POP3):
pop.mail.yahoo.com

Outgoing mail server (SMTP):
smtp.mail.yahoo.com

Don't forget to set your client to use authentication ;)

http://yahoopops.sourceforge.net/ - your email client from/to Yahoo - FREE!

You used to get free pop3/smtp access, by signing up to "Yahoo delivers" - but I guess too many people set spamfilters on their ads.

Interesting, didn't spot that, as I'd set US preferences to make the toolbar's spyware scanner available.
