Yahoo Tries to Improve Your Inbox

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the can't-get-much-worse dept.

Jamie found a story about Yahoo's plans to improve your inbox by incorporating more information into the sorting. Simple thread order or chronological order ignores tons of information that might be available on social networking websites. That way your friends will be more prominently displayed. Automating this could beat the hell out of a hundred lines of procmail recipes.

    So they've put in a working spam filter?

      So they've put in a working spam filter? Whoa! Slow down there, partner! Let's not get ahead of ourselves. First we need to be able to see all of our inbox spam in an orderly fashion before we can begin ignoring it.
