Old Yahoo! Mail gets new and improved

Yahoo! Mail users have a new reason to celebrate. Because even though you might not notice it, Yahoo has added a few little upgrades to their ever-reliable email service called Yahoo Mail Classic. This is different from the all-new Yahoo Mail Plus, by the way, and just serves as a minor update to an old platform that apparently a lot of users still find very useful.

The new Yahoo Mail Plus has some new features, including an Auto-save to Draft option which does just that - saves your emails to draft as you write them. And then the draft copy gets automatically erased once you send that message - just like in Gmail, right? It's also easier to download attachments now, as one-click download is now enabled for attachments in Yahoo Mail Classic. This update isn't just about new features, though, because some old features were also removed. Like Today’s tip, your Avatar's display, keyboard shortcuts and attachment previews. For these, I guess you'll have to make do with upgrading to Yahoo Mail Plus, which is a pretty neat service in itself as well, so you're really in a win-win situation with this. And now is the part where you go and brag about this to your Gmail using friends knowing they've had these features years ago.
