When I log-in to Yahoo to check my emails, I was surprised to see the new addition to Yahoo Mail Classic. Wow, Instant Messaging is within Yahoo Mail Classic now. What a great added feature to my favorite email provider. If you have Yahoo account, try to check and tell us what you can say about it. Thanks to you all and have a great day

I've been using that for a while, it's a neat feature, though from time to time it will act up and if you hit a certain key it will open up a new window and stuff, it starts to irate me. It's alot faster and quicker when you wanna do a check of your offline messages though, MSN is supposed to be attempting this feature soon.

Hi Tamara, Yahoo Messenger is a separate application or software. It should be downloaded and installed separately, right? It's really great to have YM in your computer because it has lots of features. It cannot be compared with Yahoo Web Messenger or Yahoo Mail Classic with Chat and Mobile Text in the Inbox. It is only good for people like me, who do not want to install lots of applications in their computers. Neil

I've been using that IM on yahoo mail since last year and even here in our office since we are not allowed to download and run instant messaging. It's really a big help to us since we can still chat to our friends online even we haven't have the program of Yahoo messenger. But you can also open your YM and other intant messaging system through ebuddy and meebo. You can also try and check it.

Hi best. Well, I've been offline again for quite sometime and just moments ago, I've checked my yahoo mail and saw the instant messaging. It's really a great feature but is it the same when you switch from mail classic to beta? Anyway, have a great day too. HUGZ always...Miss you!!

Oh yeah Yahoo recently added that to the Mail Classic. Cool isn't it? The reason why I was using the new yahoo mail before was the Yahoo Chat. Now that they have it in classic I will definitely switch to it instead. The new yahoo mail is too slow and annoying.

It is just like gmail now, where we can chat with our friends by opening our account. Gmail is my favourite since it get started. I don't think yahoo can beat it. Gmail chat is faster than yahoo.

I also have an account with Gmail and I also love it's service. But the problem with Gmail is that I don't have lots of friends use the said email provided. So it will come out useless to stay longer with Gmail and wait everyone to chat me there. I am not discounting Gmail, I still use it. I remain to be a Yahoo and Gmail member, but with chatting, I prefer Yahoo. Thanks for the response...

May be its because yahoo was the first to provide the chat facility over internet. Most of my friends used yahoo before but once gmail launched, everyone changed it to gmail. I use gmail over yahoo because of its simplicity

Firstly, I welcome you to mylot. You have made the good move... You should try Yahoo as one of your alternate email account, good thing is, it's free... With regards to chatting, Yahoo Mail Classic, now with instant messaging added is a great tool for people who do not want to install additional software like Yahoo Messnger. You only need is an internet browser which is pre-installed in all computers.
