Yahoo! Mail Superior to Gmail ?

ynotme writes "In his column, Walt Mossberg of the Wall Street Journal writes that the new Yahoo! Mail beta provides a superior webmail experience to Gmail. Some quotes: 'The new Yahoo Mail is far superior to Gmail. Yahoo more closely matches the desktop experience most serious email users have come to expect ... Gmail has none of these new, fluid, desktop-like features ... Google's engineers have decreed that familiar email practices are no longer useful, and have substituted approaches they prefer, arrogantly denying users any choice.'"

Mutt represent! Mutt was my first email client, back when I first started using email in high school in 1994. After getting a job with an internet startup, I was more or less forced into using Outlook. I'm back on mutt now and couldn't be happier. Mutt, postfix, dovecot, maildir, kmail, horde, imp; I can pretty much access my email anywhere through whatever client happens to be most convenient at the time.

Emacs, though? Ick. I'll stick with vim. ;)

Response to moderation...

Thanks to whomever modded me down. I ask a reasonable question, and it's as if you deem it unreasonable, so instead of modding it "Overrated" how about modding it as 'Troll" or "Flamebait?" I made note that I was asking a question, not making a point, directly in the topic of my post, which was an OBVIOUS QUESTION.

Thank you again, Slashdot-appointed mods of the day with your five points, for not understanding the common English language, or for paying attention to the topic line from my post. I made a point of making the subject line "Question From an Uninformed Person" for a reason, you 'tards.

Thank you, you non-english speaking moderators....

Thank you once again, Slashdot-appointed mods of the day, with your five points of bullcrap (one reason why I hardly moderate, your own mods have a *POOR* grasp of the English language,) for not understanding the common English language as far as the USA is concerned. I made a point of making the subject line "Question From an Uninformed Person" for a reason, you 'tards. How about doing what your English teacher taught you to do, which is read everything before making comments??? Well, unless you're in a school system approved by Bush, in which case, you're semi-excused for your ignorance.
