Too much work involved.

Wonder what Hotmail will do?

Yep and you get to choose which webmail app, SPAM filters, etc.

When was the last time that Microsoft reacted to market competition?
Look at all the advances Firefox/opera have over IE and still IE hasn't been changed, except for security holes. Hotmail sucks the same way, why would they change>
 
Sweet. I love competition. It's just too bad Yahoo isn't curtailing their spam like Hotmail has - without having to set filters or a bulk mail folder.
 
Great... Just when I started changing from my @yahoo.com to my new @gmail.com account because I was running out of storage space! Geez, why couldn't they said something about this a week sooner! 🙂

Yahoo doesn't count messages in your bulk mail folder towards your 6 MB storage limit. That's a good thing, too, because I probably get 60 spam messages a day in that folder.

What are you doing wrong ? I have no filters and no bulk mail folder settings and I only get 4 or 5 spam a day now compared to like 6 months ago when I got hundreds. They really did improve. When did you use them last and what have you done wrong ?
 
it will be interesting to see microsoft's response to google's email as they are already gearing up for a search engine war

no kidding. You know, if they had some sort of mail filter, I might be inclined to care about their email.

GMail is still in beta testing right now, so they're currently accepting new members by invitation only. We're able to invite a new member every week or two, though.
